    UK Angel Investment Network

    Has anyone had any experience of dealing with this Network. Their website is angelinvestmentnetwork.co.uk. Just wondered if they were any good or is it just a money making scam. All advise welcome and appreciated.

    Seeking €800k Investment

    Martin, I couldn't agree with you more, I looked at various websites offering input from 'Investment Angels' and most just looked like scams.

    Seeking €800k Investment

    Thanks for your input Da... I appreciate your advice. Yes some of our turnover is from the summer holidaymaker trade but mostly it is locals who live here (Brits/Spanish). We have done no advertising as yet and all our customers have come via recommendations / word of mouth. We didn't...

    Seeking €800k Investment

    Just an update on old thread, I started my first unit 8 weeks ago and our turnover is above our break-even target. We are achieving growth week on week, but we will see what the longer term holds.

    Am I Charging A Fair Price For This Website

    Phil, I find it difficult to believe even an experienced web designer could create that site and write all the content from scratch in a single day. None of the content has been supplied by the client and has been written by myself.

    Am I Charging A Fair Price For This Website

    Thanks for all the feedback. My clients were fully aware of my lack of experience and they did shop around, they were quoted around €1000. I originally estimated 5 days to build the site, but they have requested additional stuff which has added to the cost. I have written all the content...

    Am I Charging A Fair Price For This Website

    Sorry, just to clarify, there is no dispute and I informed them I would charge €200 per day and I have given them 1 day free because some things took longer than anticipated on my behalf. They are happy with the site and the price. I just wondered if this seemed a fair price.

    Am I Charging A Fair Price For This Website

    I wrote a website for myself which started attracting a few visitors, first one I have written, I am not a web designer by any stretch. Then I was approached by someone to write their business website because they liked mine. I am close to finishing the site and I am going to charge them...

    Newsagents / CTN / Anyone ?

    Yeah Boxby, absolutely spot on, it really depends on area. If you have no comp for miles and have good range you could do well. I would have dreamt of 800 a week, we had stores turning over 15-20k a week and we couldn't get near 200, and most of that was potatoes.

    Newsagents / CTN / Anyone ?

    "The shop is on a high street which has another newsagents on it and also has two co-op stores and a Threshers so the competition for off licence trade is high." Don't be put off by the competition, you will find you can compete on price against the Co-op and Threshers neither are particularly...

    Newsagents / CTN / Anyone ?

    I completely agree with what Phillip posted. You need to extend your range as much as possible. What size is your store and is there any opportunity to expand? I was in the convenience store business for 10 years before selling up last year. We sold news and mags in all our stores. You...
