Hi all, one thing for sure, spelling is not my best subject.

Hi All ,My name is Bill Wright,(Ilkley Express) I am new to working for myself as a courier.But have lots of expirience working in multidrop,Reading your posts in forums,there are many negative comments about starting out in this industry,and Ihave taken them onboard,But I am here now and cannot wait to get started,One thing I do know,is its not what you know its who you know,and you guys have a wealth of expirience,and I would like to get to know you all and work with you,I am properly resoursed,and cannot wait to get going,I hope you will welcome me to your industry,Thanks

Welcome and good luck

If you haven't already looked, then check out the directory to see who's close by, and say hello to em, especially if they're Courier Companies, as opposed to OD's

Ultimate Xpress is a good place to start so send them an introductory email

Bill welcome, you will get work from this site but not alot.

Thank you for that Speed, and your comments Dune

Bill welcome, you will get work from this site but not alot.

I think that's a bit unfair, it's not overflowing with jobs as such but it's all subject to many factors. Location, vehicle size, availability, presenting yourself in the right way to the right people, realistic competitive pricing (not necessarily lowest pricing). Some members may come direct to you rather than post via the site.

Welcome aboard Bill, best of luck!

Fair point Scott

Hello ilkley express, i myself am new starter. I done 1 job that was listed on here and he's been phoning direct ever since. If you look on the forums you get alot of advice and some really good banter as well. Many time iv'e looked there and had a good laugh to myself. There is a good bunch on here that will answer any questions you may have.

Thanks east lancs, have enjoyed reading the posts
