    Oh, that ship has sailed, when I saw her last week she was talking about redesigning the site 'Stop smoking crack! I am not doing it!' :rotfl:

    Def. taking the P then!!! When she asks you to do it again - say 'I'll let you have a quote!' What's the betting she will decide she doesn't want the work done after all!

    Exactly, because she has started a business and hasn't had many clients through. She doesn't seem to get that it takes time to build things up. I think she opened the site and thought 'kerching, I'm in the money'. She has a good niche, but seems to think that having a website is the be all and end all. ***shrugs***

    LOL

    I get so many dreamers like that on the phone asking me to help them out and expecting the SEO to work overnight.

    I refuse to take those clients on now - and simply quadruple what I would have charged them otherwise.

    hi all,

    Started the stop smoking last night started at 5pm when i finished my last one in the house. Going well, no patches and a ton of mints and chewing gum in the house now to keep my mouth busy and hands are busy doing stuff with DD.

    As for second account on ebay it isnt an issue but be aware if for any reason ebay close you down all of them will be shut.
