Hi Guys,

I am a newbie here, just as a favour if you guys would answer a couple of questions i would send the list to your emails. You may already know all of them(think tht you helped a newbie out)

To answer the questions go to my website and then go to the contacts page and fill out the form with answers there.

Q.3 Where Do you normally purchase your inks and toners?

Q.4 Which do you prefer Genuine or Compatible and why?

Q.5 Would you buy it from me if i was able to supply your needed ink and toners at a cheaper price?

It would be greatly appreciated as this me help know more about my audience.

Hi Payless,

I'm happy to help with your research just to be helpful, but i'm with Gab, I think what you are offering as an incentive isn't of much value.

If I type in "australian business directory" or "business directory" into google, whatever comes up on the first 3 pages is obviously of some value for that search term (and worth getting listed in), anything beyond that is probably of minimal value - as if google isn't ranking the directory at all, then it's probably not a good directory.

NOW, if you were offering say a list of the top 100+ business directories, with a criteria of all Australian based, all free with no reciprocal links or payment required, not overun with spam, and good inner page value this would be of value - provided someone had the time to go an sign up for them all without it being a distraction form their core business. :-)

On second thoughts, although I of course have my own Aussie business directory lists along with all sorts of other lists and systems, i'm curious to see whats on it (can I guess - startlocal.com.au, truelocal.com.au and hotfrog.com.au are the first 3?)

Also, to run a professional survey try something like the free plan at
http://www.surveymonkey.com or something like that.

That way you can ask your questions in a professional way, all displayed neatly, proper result reports etc. Asking people to copy and paste the questions from a forum post into a tiny box on a contact form (the box is too small by the way), doesn't scream professionalism.

I'm not having a go at you I promise, just trying to nudge you in the right direction.

Hi,
Amanda
Thanks Heaps, i thought this place was for getting help not for ruining other people's posts.

I just needed some answers to questions. But oh well this is business
Cheers

Hi Payless

This place is definately for getting help and also offer advice for free - I understand you were genuinely trying to run a campaign although I can't sit back and not let people know they can get that information for nothing elsewhere.

Maybe offer them something more enticing and something that they can't get elsewhere like a competition? Or knowing the people on this forum - if you use an online survey system as some people have suggested, we often just do it for nothing as we DO want to sincerely help.

All the best.
Amanda
