What are Deseret Units?
Deseret Units are a local currency for use in the Deseret Region. Units can be used to purchase goods and services with any person or business who accepts them. Deseret Units are used just the same way cash is. However Units remain in the local economy instead of being spent at places that will send them outside the region. A business who accepts Deseret Units can have a competitive edge over other businesses, and also over huge national store chains.
Deseret Units are backed by silver. This means that for every Unit a certain amount of silver is stored. Units represent this silver and can be exchanged back into silver.
People who use Deseret Units play an active role in promoting and sustaining the local economy of the Deseret Region. By using Deseret Units people strengthen local businesses, create more jobs, and sustain our economy despite the increasingly unstable national and global economy.
As the national economy continues to fall apart, Deseret Units are a safe-guard to protect our homes, families, and jobs.
There are ten denominations of Deseret Units. Some are used more than others.

All people benefit from having a strong local economy. When the economy is strong there are more jobs, and a higher standard of living. Deseret Units help the local economy by providing a form of currency that only has value in the local area. This means that the money cannot be sent out of the area and used outside our region. The longer money is used, and circulated within a region the more the region benefits. Stores run by local people can benefit from having an exclusive customer base that spends Deseret Units. Likewise, consumers benefit by having places to spend their Deseret Units.
A real danger today is the decreasing value of the dollar. The Federal Reserve is pumping trillions of dollars into the economy and countries are trying hard to get rid of their dollars. The result of this will be massive inflation and devaluation of the dollar. By using Deseret Units businesses and consumers have a stable platform upon which to ride out these impending financial storms.
Deseret Units are a great investment for your personal and/or business future.
Deseret Units can give your business a competitive edge against other businesses and large national chain stores. Deseret Units are a flexible tool that you can use to bring in customers.
Deseret Units work similar to a coupon. A customer can pay for all or some of their purchase with Deseret Units(you can determine what works best for your business). But unlike a coupon which is discarded, a Deseret unit can then be spent, by you, at any other store that accepts Units.
There are many people with Deseret units in their pockets and they need places to spend them. When your business accepts Unit you suddenly have access to this "captive audience." Deseret Units are not accepted by large national stores. So when a person buys or receives a Unit they can only spend it at a business that accepts them. And when your business accepts them, these consumers will be able to spend their Units at your business!
