It costs us alot of money to walk off a paying job site, spend gas to get to you, and spend the hour or two that a good contractor will take to thoroughly go through your project with you - especially if we are a mom-n-pop operation offering free estimates to struggling home owners.Also remember that contractors have special contact boards just like BP - and we do talk amongst ourselves.

I have a cooler with Otter Pops in it and we take breaks to keep them from burning out.

(I will have to try to find that ice cream place though, those mom and pop places are the best.)Chris Vaught it is amazing how much motivation those little ones provide isnt it?

You could always try googling them, see if they pop up on facebook.

Make sure the google voice number pops up so you know it is from your marketing campaign and have a different ring tone for that google voice number that is incoming.

On this one, though, when I drove to the address intent on speaking to the neighbors - I saw that the top floor was off the property and someone else had a crew over there doing a pop-top already.

A good stager will make the house pop, and make the furniture fit the house.

The mom and pop companies can find enough personal friends to fund the limited amount of deals.

You can tag people by typing @ before you type their name, then clicking their name when it pops up at the bottom of the message box.

Look for ones that are posted by a "mom n pop" outfit and not a mgmt company, see they'd be interested in selling.
