This is my first posting here so I hope I use the correct format. I run a Scottish based virtual business network called The-Grapevine - its membership is fast approaching the 5k mark. I know that many folk on The-Grapevine are dissatisfied with their existing web/email hosting companies. I also work as a Consultant and I have taken on a new client, who, as part of the business planning/evaluation process has carried out a great deal of professional market research etc. However, as I am planning on negotiating a Grapevine members discount for the services this company can provide I have put together a survey as there is little point in The-Grapevine offering discounts if the services are not wholly suitable. This new client of mine has very specific plans to offer UK hosting solutions through the provision of bespoke web servers unparalleled in features or price – a rock-solid hosting platform, with slick connection speeds, no hidden extras or nasty surprises and of course unsurpassed technical support with real people not automated answering services. Can I ask you for 5 mins of your time to complete the survey. Your detailed responses will enable me to evaluate their proposals. As a result, whether you are a private individual, a business start up, a small to medium sized enterprise or even a re-seller – of course, you all stand to benefit as I have negotiated a special Grapevine rate (The-Grapevine is a free service) which will be available to members interested in signing up for hosting on a no-obligation basis. Your first three month’s will be completely free and then Grapevine preferential rates will apply. Full details of Grapevine rates will be released to all interested parties who complete the survey. This short survey can be accessed on my website at www.the-grapevine.co.uk/survey Many thanks and I look forward to hearing from you. Jennie H
