Its a tough game to be in, you are in a far better area than a lot of people, what steps are you taking to get work?

Did you thoroughly research your market before taking the plunge? Leaving a few business cards is a start but generally a waste of time. My business marketing courses told me that on average one gets ONE positive response out of one thousand mail shots.

It takes a long time to network with the 'right' people and a lot of hard work! There is much more to this than buying a van and having a love of driving.

Good luck and hope your research will pay off

Of course I did but as you know van, insurances and love of driving are necessary to start anything here...-:) I do know that few business cards are not enough and I m trying to do much more about it... Hope it will pay off... Thank you for yours reply...

To be honest there is not such thing like free weekend, you have to be more determinate to build prospectus business:)) Good luck!
