Richy

I kinda get that impression - told me 30 searches but who is to say that is factual. They may well have a member of the team sitting creating random searches

I am so glad you are here to be my guru and guide me in all business decisions - Thank you.

I will be taking advice from the other, at least three on here, who are on Checkatrade before I make my final decision.

Rob

I'll speak to you tomorrow as you can't really have a decent discussion on here with some people.

Checkatraaaaaaaaaaaadeee...Cheackatrade dot com!

 

I always sing that when someone mentions it.

Worked out where you get hypo as well pal, not as thick as i look 

[Darranvps]

I always think that you have to give some things time to work.

I decided on Checkatrade because I use it to find decent tradesmen - plumbers etc when I need one.

Plus I also know two or three people who have been on it for years and done very well from it.

I dont expect it to be the best way of getting new work - but every little bit helps.

My own websites each bring in different types of work - just last week we gained a lot of solar panel cleans for the Environment Agency as when you google - solar panel cleaners - we pop up.

You have to keep trying............

Is that good or bad!!??!!!

When I was speaking to them today they said they had someone on the top side of Manchester. I said is that my mate Lee from blastaway.

He said yes it is how did you know?

I said I know him but I did not know he was on Checkatrade!

Post that video on here that you sent me this afternoon!!!

I've just updated my chas and safe contractor on CAT, forgot to do it and was getting mithered to.

To knowledge I've had one person say so far that they found me on CAT but the main aspect in my opinion is long term of the reports that I'm gathering from it and see how it expands up north.

[Rob_Mac]

I love it

Rob

[Blast Away]

I love it

Cuts the moss nicely on the return length!

Rob

I know what you mean Rob!

[Alan McTernan]

We do ok from Checkatrade.

When I carry out the quotation I ask where they got my number from and then I make a note of it so I can monitor what advertising works.

That's my 2 pence worth anyway

Cheers
Alan

[Rob_Mac]

What sort of return are you getting Alan.

How many calls Via Checkatrade?

Rob

[Alan McTernan]

The thing you have to remember Rob is that I am based right next to Selsey where Checkatrade is based and founded, so my return and calls from Checkatrade will not be the same in other parts of the country.
Also I am in 3 of their local directories, so pay quite a bit each month

[Rob_Mac]

Alan

I have heard that more than once today, but you are still getting what you feel is a worthwhile return so it must have something!!

Rob

[Alan McTernan]

As I am sure you are aware advertising is a funny old game. What works for some doesn't work for others and the same goes for different trades, areas and markets!

[Roger Oakley]

Alan,

Do you use the CAT forum (members area) at all?

[Alan McTernan]

Roger,

No I don't is it any good?

[Roger Oakley]

Roger,

No I don't is it any good?

Interesting? I'll email you.

[Rob_Mac]

Where's Mike gone?

Not me this time!

Rob

[Roger Oakley]

He was on here last week, has he left again?

[Rob_Mac]

I think so Roger - his profile is black again!!
