New Marketing Idea


I was thinking of using this on my business cards to get some new business. What do you think?

Re: New Marketing Idea


One of the best flashing jobs I have seen by a chimney to date.

If I could get that talent hired for my company, we would never get off the flashing portion of the project though, because it would involve a detailed and thorough inspection for any areas of concealed moisture.

I also like the Hip portions of the roof. Very nicely designed.

It has been a long time since I saw such a nicely vented lower portion on a roof like that too. I think it's time to consider that application again.

I also would like to point out that those beverage containers met my high standards, but the contents may get quite warm, exposed to the sun like that.

Re: New Marketing Idea


How does one get that roofing inspector to be a friend on your profile?

I have a position in mind that this party obviously would qualify for.

I didn't even realize that there were more photos on the site, until your post, which I then had to go back and login to see the rest of the prtfolio.

Well worth the additional effort, if I must say so myself.

I counted a lot more.....

I guess you mean you only looked at each one once?

Why man, I say why or how could you have restrained yourself?

Then, there were all of her friends.....

And friends of her friends.

And more friends of those friends.....

I didn't leave my office until 8:30 am today.

Does that tell you something!!!

He-He-He.....!!!

Re: New Marketing Idea


I think I will show this thread to my wife and show her how starved I am for, errr, shall we say, "In Depth Research Into This Subject", and see if I get some additional training sessions implemented this weekend. I would like to probe all of the resources available.

Did I say that PC enough, you think?

Ed



PS
Yes, I am who I warn people about, LOL.
