No trouble here fella, only thing to mention i ssome customers are shocked at the final price of materials etc, 48sqm of floating floor, imagine her face when Topps gave her a price for addy. The key is we build a quick relationship with the customer so if they go elsewhere for mats and tiles or say they don't want the approved system they stil use us to fit the job, just beware, DO NOT BITE THE HAND THAT FEEDS YOU, in other words don't poach the jobs from Topps the lads work on commision and you won't get many if anymore jobs, plus if yuour customer is confident in you they will use you whatever. | ||||||||||

The customer is trying to get the fitting side of thing for nothing well thats what I think. Topps well all they have said is there the ones on desplay and that how they are basicly they dont give a sh*t I havent been paid for the fitting but topps have been paid for tiles. good ant it..... | ||||||||||

If you are well in with atleast one person in the store you'll still get your cards passed out without being a TAF, so just work on someone if you can  | ||
