skills swap for businesses startups?

I wondered if anyone's aware of any business skills swap forums or places?

As a start up I'm looking at offering some of my skills in exchange for things I need done, like a logo etc.

Many thanks.

    There's a site called swapaskill which may be what you need, although you do have to sift through.

    Saying that, I started a cheap website for our local (very small) village which acts as a sort of online noticeboard, and set up a page where people can swap skills or items. This might be a good option if you live in a small community. There's even a business list of all local small businesses that pay to advertise on there for £5 per month. Good if you have a demand for a small area who like to use local services, it acts as a one stop shop.
    Good luck :-)
  • Hi,
    You can try localskillswap.com
    It works through local and umbrella groups, so you search in your locality or region by looking up the skill required and looking at the profiles of people with those skills. You shouldn't have to sift around at all. If you can't find the skill you are after in your own local area, then you can switch to view other groups and see if they have the skills you are after. You can use it for business or pleasure. Good luck!

    Here is the true, original skill-swapping movement, copied by many :)
