    Got an idea, what do you think?

    Customer needs a pallet, item of furniture, vehicle, ride-on-lawnmower or something moving from A to B. I find people who are travelling in the same direction and get a cheap price from them. Then add a margin onto then contact the customer with the quote. I could do it where I have a set...

    Got an idea, what do you think?

    Do I pay for the deliver online or for the delivery of a package by a courier? I don't know why you say you can't compete with their prices as there are tons of courier services. Also I would do larger items than city link are usually used for. I got a quote from DHL, twenty four pounds for...

    Got an idea, what do you think?

    Not all deliveries are the same day, every time I buy online it seems to be 3 - 5 working days?

    Got an idea, what do you think?

    I would network and hand out leaflets advertising about low cost transport. If a customer say needed a ride-on-lawnmower I would contact people and see if someone was going in the same direction and find the lowest price for them, add a small margin on it and contact them back.

    Got an idea, what do you think?

    It would be cheaper and if people would just use them, why are there small independent courier companies?

    Got an idea, what do you think?

    I'm not talking about about massive loads such as lorries but smaller loads. If people were already using these sites why would they be paying couriers 80 + a mile? Also I don't know if they would bother with the sites if it was once or twice a week. But I could potentially manage getting them a...

    Got an idea, what do you think?

    I'm talking about being a middle man for businesses. So if a business needs something picking up or dropping off I can give them a competitive price, book someone who is going that way. I pay the courier and then invoice the business.

    Got an idea, what do you think?

    I know a big network of couriers and people who transport items. I was thinking I could hand out leaflets and network to meet people who wanted items transporting for cheap. People who are picking up items on the way back see it as pure profit so it's quite cheap and I could provide a service...

    Finding my target audience.

    Thanks for your responses! Great idea till I can get more removal work and my own fleet. I'll try leaflets again but with a lot more, what do you suggest for other forms of local marketing ? Thanks for your replies!

    Finding my target audience.

    Hello Everyone :) I've started up removals and while everything so far is going OK. I'm about breaking even and spending a lot on PPC. Now I know this is a working progress. Getting my SEO good is top priority! However I met a man who has a yard and ten to fifteen vans running daily. He...

    Bing adwords

    I had four impressions on Google and got my first click. Made a massive mistake though. My contact form I had reused one of the fields again so when they entered number of bedrooms it said invalid email address :mad: Bright side is I got a click and I've paused the campaign until the issue is...
