well been thinking i should put this to the tta .indepent tile fixers should carry a tta id card with photo .witch they can use at any tta outlet to get max discount without an account .this way when your working out side your normal area and need to pick up a few bags of adhesive ect .this should save you time and money

not to mention that the "id" will be tied to an individual......(meaning everyone will need to join in a team!) preferably with a photo.........that way, there will be no way a "single" member could join and 20 people could use his/her card!!!!!!!

just a thought!

Good luck if you can make it fly but it sounds a bit of a difficult one... How can the TTA dictate independent outlet profit and discounts. If they are members of the TTA they join to boost business and margins not to knock them down...

well the retailer needs to be protected from abuse to .if you just a card with your number on buisness card you could give this to your client next thing you now hes in a shop claiming your discount

IMO...it should me more of a moral duty between members........afterall.......there are not that many TTA fixers in the UK!...so I doubt it will upset margins.....but it will give the scheme the credibilty it deserves and will also make people want to join...........myself included!..........

oh and I am also sure "registered members" will be more than willing to pay.........lets say £5...per ID card per employee?.......as they are at cost?.........after postage?......just a thought?

well the thinking behind this is you would look for your nearest tta out let .this is business you might not have got and you get to meet a new tiler who would use you again when down your way plus tell others

thank you Alan.........but TBH......we all have a few ideas popping about......and they all have merit IMO.....Ray, Gary and I (I am NOT a member YET!).......But ,Personally I want the TTA to strive.......
and be profitable........and the ID card system will make (a small) profit and encourage people to join.......just my opinion......
