Just realised the 10th is a monday - haven't decided yet mate, don't know whether to drive up on the sunday or stay over on the monday night - option 1 sounds good though.

Touch base with you nearer the time  ;)

Post by: happy mondays on November 27, 2010, 10:10:27 pm
Ok Steve, the Sunday would be easier and better for me, but could stay the Monday at a push, see what Derek can do and sort it nearer the time  :)

Wish I was going, Paul's know how is spot on and the courses sound right up my street tbh. Real life situation training with tips that cannot be learnt elsewhere. Priceless.

When is the next one?

Come on own up.. which moderator removed my post that was just replying to a question  ???

I thought it was not breaking the forum rules to mention someone elses products and services.

if anyone is interested in pauls course why not just search google for 'paul moss carpet cleaning' and give him a call, he's a nice guy and genuinely won't mind any carpet cleaner calling him. then you can get all the info straight from the horses mouth.

I'm the opposite. I'm always weary of people who put lots of letters after their name, they always seem to be trying too hard.

We have an abundance of formal courses, unfortunately they are all the same. You can get accreditation on any of those and ....... how much good does that actually do you in getting business and earning £80-100 an hour?

Not too sure about those figures to be honest. You can lead a horse to water.....

30 staff = £1m t/o

Couldn't have been much profit left after all costs.  :(

Derek Romell Diploma

What member of the public knows.

When Paul Pearce and Robert Sanders first started training according to the legend they must have been very Young Men

If Paul Moss wants to set up a training school issue Diplomas etc I say good luck to him.

But use the correct means to promote it ie ebay. Mail Shots Web Sites etc.

And then you have the issue of people using the knowledge they have .

EG; I passed my driving test in 1986 ,  but according to the magistrate last week , my 17 son is more eligible to drive than me ,

Just because you have a qualification does not make you good at whatever you qualify in .

Worse than that is people who use the amount of time in an industry to claim expertise , it is no good being in the business 18 years as I have , if you still do the same things as you did in year 1
