LFN #256 – How to Get Local Businesses to Accept Gold & Silver (16 Years of Counter-Economy Lessons)

Episode 256

Play episode

I’ve spent over 16 years building the counter-economy. Trading precious metals for goods and services with real businesses. Actual trades, actual people, actual yeses.

In this video I break down exactly how I do it. The scripts, the mindset, and the moves that get a business owner nodding instead of staring at you like you just asked to pay in seashells.

You’ll learn:

How to walk up to a farmers market vendor and get a yes on the spot
Why pitching a brick and mortar is a completely different game than pitching an online shop
How to know what to pay so you’re never overpaying or insulting the person across the counter
The objections you’ll hit before you even open your mouth, and how to handle them

This is what’s worked for me across hundreds of real transactions… building a parallel economy that doesn’t need the dollar or the banking system to function.
