Hi @NeverPaintAgain. Welcome to the forums

What type of business do you run?

 

[NeverPaintAgain]

Hi, I run a sales and marketing business, selling house painting and wall coating services around the UK. I have been doing it since 1999 and we were pretty much the first people to do that. Beforehand my industry was all sort of leaflets, telesales etc, which really turned me off so went online when not that many people were online. We've done very well since then.

Nice to hear that you're doing well. What type of marketing services do you offer? Do you offer printed material, for example leaflets?

 

[NeverPaintAgain]

Hi, its funny you should ask but no we don;t. When we started out all companies in my sector used direct marketing, huge and expensive royal mail leaflet campaigns, expensive magazine ads, door canvassers, telemarketing etc. No one in our industry apart from about 2 other people, had a marketing website. All the time all the big bosses said i was mad and should stick to the tried and trusted methods of marketing. I proved them wrong! now every tom dick and harry in my industry has a website most of them are crap, but anyway

Haha! You are a true pioneer. It's nice to hear that you proved them wrong
