karl i DO know the trade,,, i know what ii hear when the erst boys come into fords and talk about your ability ect and then mention where they heard of you from
you dont advertise in mags,,, no fucker knows where your actually located apart from "coventry area" but everyone has heard of you,,,, now i know you do MORE than old fords and you have done alot of contract work for other things for real money ect but the NMS in the cossie game has come from word of mouth and theres no fucking chance that i heard of you from a guy in central london,,,,, considering how many cossies are about so the internet makes it easier
NMS in your sig aint gonna gain you more business considering all the others who have it,,, but you know it shows a identity that people reconise and having just "karl" and a car wont show a new person you are THEE karl,,,,, but think your just karl from coventry
i done a test last year,,, i removed my sig and noticed that less people bothered with me who never knew me and then when my old shed was nicked i put it back on and people PM me and talk to me just cause of a picture of a ropey old sierra,,,,,
people judge based on appearence,,,, also your having a little bit of a hissy too but we all get like that at times and so thats allowed
