Hi Everyone,
I had a very interesting email from a Plumber this morning and we discussed the difference between greed and competitiveness. Have a look at this video here:
Because I think the confusion caused by changing the meaning of greed to competitiveness is wrong. Greed to me is when people take more than they need or could use simply because they can. Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.
Now I don't believe there is anything wrong with building a bit of fat into a business. Without it occassionally, no business would be able to survive. But excessive profits sort of kills-the goose-that-lays-the-golden-egg if you get my drift.
What are your thoughts?
Warmly,
Jan

Commercial Real Estate
Hi again folks!
As the domestic maintenance and repair market is getting more and more competitive then perhaps its time to start looking around to see where another market could be developing. I would strongly suggest to all our tradies to take a careful look around their local shopping centres / malls and see what could be done there.
There are many small retailers battling too at the moment but many of those retail spaces are leased commercial property and could well need some upkeep that hasn't been done in the past few years due to it being too hard to get a contractor to do it.
Well, now you may have the time?
Regards to all,
Jan

Hey Guys ~ You need this
Hi everyone,
I know that many of you are quietly doing some internet marketing at home after a hard days work. So if you want to watch a programme that really does work and it has three times the value in freebies attached to it....I suggest you nick on over asap before they close the doors. Don't believe this pirate's lady :-) Go see for yourself!
Cheers all,

Hi everyone,
Did our painters know that if they wash a house thoroughly before beginning a paint job that it could save them many hours and hours of work?
House washing in Brisbane to remove dust, mould and fungi off eaves, gutters, walls and concrete paths not only improves the look of the house immensely but for real estate valuation purposes it can add many thousands of dollars on to the value of the home.
So before our painters do their next 'tart up' job, speak to the real estate agent selling the home and get them to speak with their vendor about either washing the house first or doing both a wash and a paint job.
Hope you find this helpful,
Cheers all,
Jan
