Dating agencies
A dating agency is a business which acts as a service for matchmaking. A dating agency can be a "real" business where men and women come in person and ask a matchmaker to help them find a potential partner. It could also be an internet dating agency - a website where people register, post their profiles and contact other members of the agency.

In a more general sense of the word, anyone selling his/her services for a cause thought to be unworthy can be described as prostituting him/herself.

International trade
International trade is the exchange of goods and services across national borders. In most countries, it represents a significant part of GDP. While international trade has been present throughout much of history (see Silk Road, Amber Road), its economic, social, and political importance have increased in recent centuries, mainly because of Industrialization, advanced transportation, globalization, multinational corporations, and outsourcing. In fact, it is probably the increasing prevalence of international trade that is usually meant by the term "globalization".
