    By all means move it over to there no problem. As you say these ideas should be kept back for us. Cheers for thinking of that. ---------- Post Auto-Merged at 12:29 ---------- Previous post was made at 12:27 ----------

    My List has just exploded!! I've printed all this up and will set to work on it. There's some superb suggestions there, I'd already pulled together a load of other trade categories that aren't listed (stuff that won't be of interest to you on here mind) some are easier than others. Think adding...

    Yep definately, not far from me theres a woman who advertises as a 'lady decorator'. From what I can tell she does really well. My intention with the name wasn't to exclude women in the trade, far from it, it just never even crossed my tiny mind! Its now on my ever increasing list!

    I hope its not sexist. I never bloody thought of that. Tradeladies4u..... Thats surely gonna bring up a website in thailand isn't it. On a serious note tho there are a lot of people who, for various reasons, prefer a female tradesperson. (not that reason). Perhaps it could be implemented in...

    Ha Ha 30 miles vertical! I've had some customers that I suspect have been from another planet to be honest!

    No worries, I'm trying to think about the whole equation for all trades and all job types. If someone posts a job - "I need a gas safety certificate on a rental property" job value

    I think they probably recommend getting a minimum of 3. To ensure they're getting a spread of quotes. i.e don't just get 1 and then place the order. Some people will want to go even further though and get 4,5,6 or however many they like really its the customers prerogative.

    At the minute they get an option of requesting 3,4 or 5 quotes. I'm am wondering if 5 is too many. Somebody mentioned it yesterday and it got me thinking about it. Would I buy a lead knowing 4 other people are quoting/quoted. Am not 100% sure I would. If we were really quiet then maybe but in a...

    Morning Doc, thanks for sorting that merge out. I could see it ending up cluttering the forum up. Hi Paul, I feel your pain. Its largely the refund thing that has lead me to being here. If you go back maybe a year I'm fairly certain that a

    All good. We should carry that on over on the other thread so as to not be running up a double thread on this. I can assure you though I use lead websites and have generated way more in profit than I have ever spent in lead fee's. So apart from certain frustrations they have been an additional...

    Customer when inputting the job selects an approximate budget from a dropdown menu. Its slightly flawed as obviously a customers view of a job price may be completely different to the actual costs. Chances are though customers will 'undervalue' the cost of a job so if anything they are likely to...

    Would be nice if we lived in a world where nobody ever quoted against you :) Even if it were set at a maximum of one (I know you were only joking) we all know there's also nothing stopping the customer picking a name out of the yellow book! They might also get 5 quotes from the site and not...
