Purchasing CoordinatorCapitalism is a necessary product of our civilization. We need to make money to buy stuff and of course sell stuff. This is a basic principle.
But what if there is more, something kinder more efficient and most importantly leaves capitalism alone. We all pay our taxes and make the needed payments so all is ok with society.
Yes Service in Return brings you that hoped for extra way of dealing with each other.
What if we could exchange small things or even big things by offering our service in return. It’s a little hope that I have that we can change the cities we live in just a little.
I will give an example: I give a big seminar on IT with my work knowledge I will ask big bucks, oh yes lots of big bills.
But If I give a big seminar about manic depression something I have intimate personal knowledge of all I ask for is for service in return, that can be anything you think of. You could wash my car, give your favourite painting.
Business means bucks, personal knowledge means service in return. If we start small maybe we can start something big and special.
In a by gone age (for some still) special cloth was fabricated in small groups of mainly women, the knowledge was shared, beautiful cloths were created an sometimes even displayed. No money was ever asked and these clubs were all around the western world.
It was a great way of sharing and having fun and helping each other. I would like to do this on a little larger scale.
Companies don’t have moral grounds to own personal knowledge. The signing of having no other payment for any other company is fine for service in return because there is no money involved.
There should be a definite line between personal knowledge and company knowledge.

Purchasing CoordinatorI got to know Peter from a networking platform for sales professionals and we found common ground almost instantly. Peter is very proficient in the tech sales field, with some serious experience gained with the biggest companies in the industry.It was a pleasure and very useful being able to discuss with him different sales strategies and adjust them to my tech product and offerings at the time. Peter is very serious about passing his knowledge accumulated in the years and he is running the Servturn foundation that makes it possible to make time for free consultancy for both startups and individuals, which is one of the best service in return models I have seen in action."

Business Development ManagerI was fortunate to meet Peter through his organization, Servturn, at a time in my career when I was facing a big decision on what route to take next. As a mentor, Peter not only has deep experience and thoughtful advice, but he’s also incredibly generous with his time and energy. Through many conversations Peter helped me arrive to a great place with a clear path ahead. For anyone with life and career questions to resolve, I highly recommend reaching out to Peter for a chat.

HR Manager/PM at Holland PartnersIt was a pleasure working with Peter at Intimus. His motivation not only led to great results but also inspired his colleagues. Peter is someone that can really convince a customer to choose for him and not only the product he sells. That personal approach is what makes the difference.
