Hi everyone,
not been on here for some time now had a crazy few months.
Firstly i want to apologize for my arrogance when i first came on, done a bit of soul searching these past few months and realised i was a bit of an arrogant twatio and have been for some time,,,all of my previous posts were true but i can see it came across as a bit cocky so i am sorry.
So down to my topic.
I had a brochure in the post this week from a company called aim high which is like a franchise but not, its where you keep your work and all your profits, there is no startup cost or investment all they ask you pay is a subscription of 8.50 a week. With which you get some good perks like, discounted equipment, free flyers, business cards, leaflets etc. web site, help getting you contract work etc. They give you a 3 month guarantee with it aswell. Anyway ive sent it off for an info pack and was wondering if anyone else has heard of this or are a member. any info is good. thanks

£8.50 a week paid a year in advance £8.50 @ 52 = £440 and if you look close at the perks , are they really worth anything ?
Also you are letting them into your area, they will market your area heavily and when, not if, but when, you pull out of the agreement , they will ship someone else in, who will be big competition to you, they will have all your contract details etc.
Buyer be aware

They take more than £8.50.
It does say in there book that they earn money from multisite contracts and they add between 5 and 8% on top of the actual cost to cover there costs and a little profit
I had the same thing through a month ago and chucked it on the bin.
