Why don't you advertise ? as I see it you run a sub contract business so there's custom to be gained from here
therefore your annoyed that you cant use the forum to access it cost free.
Pay up, not only will it solve your problem but you wont come across as such a dodgy character.
Because I'm only networking, as CIU invite me to do.
How does paying money clear up someone's character? Buying your way out of trouble often indicates you have something to hide.
Your not buying your way out of trouble your paying to promote your business opportunities, trying to do it on the cheap
on here sends out the message that your either a penny pinching scrooge or your not making enough money to pay for the
advertising, in other words somebody to be wary off.
CIU invite people to 'network'. What is networking if it isn't trying to contact like-minded individuals?
I'm on here to do business, to better MY business. This is what many people try and do, better their business. People on this forum probably do this by:
1. Gaining knowledge about what may be their new job/trade.
2. By getting knowledge of newer or better products than they currently own.
3. Adding a further service to their current offering. This could be gutter, driveway or carpet cleaning.
4. Learn how to get better marketing materials by way of flyers, signwriting or website.
5. Learn how to scale their business.
For me personally, I have done this on forums for about 15 years, since I had my first website built. I now need the forum for a different reason, to cope with rapid growth. But I still am using the forum for the same basic reason as everyone else, to better my business.
One way I need to do this now is to contact other cleaning companies en masse. There is no better central place to do this than CIU. They have 29,000 that I am invited to network with. I am making the most of their invitation to network.
