Re: busy,busy,busy..how about you?
🙁 Well i wish i was as busy as you guys we advertise in merseyside and warrington and south mancheter yellow pages and all the local bt phone books,we repair everything except gas appliances. we have no contract work.Yet we have watched trade slow down over the last 2 years to what is just a trickle 15 completed jobs in the last 3 weeks. I often find myself checking my telephone lines to see if there still working, so as you can imagine we are desperate.If you boys have any tips advice or contacts i would only be to pleased.

The people who have a lot to say on here do it not for their own benefit but for the common future, and because we bloody well care. Be part of it.Quite, many of us do care and not just for our own sakes although that is admittedly a part of it but not the sole reason for this site, DASA and Network DASA to all exist. We do it because we care! I, personally for all my flaws care about this trade and I want to improve everyone’s lot, irrespective of what rumour may say to the contrary.
What do I want to see, I want to see a trade that works towards common goals, that is respectable and respected and that we can actually make a decent living from. My fear is that the way it’s headed now and, I’ve said this many, many times, that unless many of these issues like this one that is vitally important to our futures, is resolved soon there will not be an independent trade to worry about in a few years.
Yes, that is a gloomy outlook, but sadly it’s correct IMHO and that is largley to do with the topic of this very thread.
Just ask any of the manufacturers or WP’s how easy it is to find decent quality repairers these days that can cover *ALL* the products that they need repaired.
Also, before you get the idea that many of them could go direct, that is a folly that many have learned is not true over the years by experimenting with it and, in some cases, causing great harm to both their own reputation and the trade in general. Many a painful lesson has been learned over the years. So, to those WP’s and/or manufacturers that think they can go direct, just try finding staff and getting the same dedication from that workforce that you carry the can for that you would from using a network of loyal independents that will support you through thick and thin. Just remember though, that’s a two-edged sword. 😉
K. ❓ IM SORRY BUT IM NEW TO THIS SITE CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT ARE WPs and IMHO.
