Re: Moving To NE Ohio


Mike,
I'm sorry to hear that you are moving from such a beautiful area to the big armpit!

The work here has been great for me this year although I only do referal work. Where in NE Ohio?

Brian

Im in Kent in the Twin Lakes area as we speak.

Any stores here that are busier than others or some names would be awsome.

Lol, havent had a chance to see the armpit part yet, Im right on the water here.

Re: Moving To NE Ohio


Mike,
Welcome.
I'm about 45 minutes north of you in the Mentor area.
Prosource has a location in Beachwood off 271 and chagrin. Dave is a good guy.
The Hudson area would be where I would start as there is money there. Stow and Twinsburg also have some nice areas and some new con.
I would be careful with any Carpet One stores as I've heard they are having some financial problems although that may be store specific.
Good luck,
GO CAVS!!!
Brian

My local Carpet One dropped the franchise. They said the fee was too much.

Stoddards Custard on the Kent car strip is good too.

Of course, you must enjoy this dessert after eating at El Campesino in Stow!

I love Mexican.... heck, I love food!
