Hi all, I am new hear. Can someone tell me if I use this site to network in a positive manner will I get some business leads? I get on well with contractors and they often help me to place other contractors.

Without leaping to any conclusions...

Did you read the warning on this part of the forum site? It can get quite You might like to stick to the professional forums - Business/Contracts, Accounting/Legal etc. for a while.

But in answer to your question - it's not unknown. I got one very fruitful contract through this site.

What sort of business are you in?

For example;

Do you, as a contractor, ever review films about Gladiators in a positive manner?
Or alternatively, if I was having a problem with a radiator, could you help?

Interesting choice of username.

Do you have a dislike for our uniformed law enforcers?

Or perhaps you prefer to go about your daily business armed with the Good Book?

Edit: Oh, and welcome

Hi ACAB

As a further warning - the responses so far have been from the nicer posters. You will get sensible replies in the professional forums though.
I haven't secured any contracts via this site but have picked up a lot of useful info on handling agents and general problems around contracting etc. Some of the stuff in Technical is very interesting too.

Now, where's the beer and your porn stash?
