Classic has already politely declined the position.
(And rightly so if the model doesn't work as well as we thought) |

Practice this phrase "Bialystock and Bloom"

His main store is at Rhawn and Frankford in Holmesburg. He has one in Bensalem, and another near Red Lion rd where sycamore used to live. i can't remember the name of that town.
His store is actually named "Cash for Gold" lol. he's very creative.

That's awesome. Everybody uses "cash for gold" now. But actually using the name "Cash for Gold" for the business will give him a unique SEO advantage.

Well I have a ton of advice for him, as well as what he should be doing with Google, not just with the website possibility. As long as he's willing to deal with a fat guy in jeans and a collared shirt. If he wants a sales guy who can dress up, I'll have to send my business partner. |

I need to pitch it to the right people. Therein lies the problem for me. My contacts from my previous position were not the right ones. FTR - I saved the PDF's and will offer in the future.

I think this line's mostly filler.

I've been calling a lot of industrial supply places this week, getting quotes on steel angle, sheet metal, and refractory materials. Not your usual customer service field. I'm going to pick up the first round of the orders in a little bit, so we'll see how it all plays out. But, thus far, phone interactions only, there is an inverse correlation between the quality of their website and the quality of their phone service and prices.
This guy seems like the most straightforward place to order high-temp refractory in Metro Detroit: http://www.k-industrial.com/ This guy is either insane, or just extremely cheap for sheet metal fab (He quoted me $35 on something a steel shop in the 'burbs said would be $202, 5 working days -- I had priced the material alone to build it myself at $75): http://www.ldssheetmetal.com/ Probably the two worst websites I've seen in a while. UT, it's not in your pamphlet as I remember it: what's your policy on $ and # of updates / year, etc, if it were a business wanting to have a regularly-added-to portfolio of work? |

For most of our one-page customers we just say updates are free, unless you go crazy about it.
If they have a specific need, I can build a password-protected administration page where they can, say, update their monthly message or whatnot. I'd probably say $30/hour if they had some sort of custom problem that requires more design work every month. |
