    Independents leading the way?

    Apologies for bumping this rather old thread, I actually meant to comment on it eons ago. Anyway I agree with MOIC for sure, the retailers that were linked above are all very individual, holding lines that they've gone out to find from 'elsewhere'. Funnily that elsewhere is usually closer to...

    Accidental damage of goods and customer/shop owner etiquette.

    Could it not be that the parent had the same reaction as you? In that they were more concerned about their child.

    What does the election result mean for small businesses?

    That's a bit unpleasant. Enjoy the man's defeat if you want, but why enjoy his kids perhaps having to quit the particular school they go to?

    Pain in the neck customers.....a rant

    I'd imagine with Web design, those people might just be getting a quote to compare to others? Can I ask if you're sure it isn't that?

    Help validate my idea! Quick survey, doing a weekend business competition

    Hi all! We're part of startup Sheffield, and we've got until Sunday to validate and build this great idea we've had. Essentially it's a method of learning to code via a web app/mobile app game, where you take control of an amoeba/organism, program it and then release it into the 'world' to...

    Why are there so many web developers?

    Ah! Sorry, what I should have asked is why there are so many small/medium sized ones, rather than one just overtaking the rest. I get that there's demand (of course!) but I don't understand why there are lots of 'small fish', so to speak (not that I mean small in any disparaging fashion).

    Why are there so many web developers?

    Hi all, I might be wrong in this, but just from looking around this forum it seems there are many small-medium sized web developing agencies out there.

    The Op mentioned he'd be opening a basic gym which trades on not tying you in with a contract anyway.

    Refund Solution

    I guess you've a point there. I could go to pc specialist and spec up a pc that's capable, but you could set up a 'single issue' business. All about marketing I suppose, though you run the risk of them just swooping in anyway.
