I can tell you that I am extremely proud of my decision to join NACHI. I am blown away on a daily basis just how much is available to us members, thanks to you and your team.

Hi Nick:

Nick I wanted you to know that the NACHI show in Orlando was a huge success for HomeGauge! I can truly tell you that we had more action than any show we ever attended in the last 5 years. It was amazing. The HomeGauge booths were always busy and we gave out over 200 cd's the first night alone. All days we were busy and it was a great advantage for our company to have attended this event. Internally the NACHI staff were very friendly an accomodating and made HomeGauge feel welcome and special. The energy of the show had a feeling of fun and excitement. I had 90 attendees both classes. Thanks by the way for letting me speak.

Thank you sir. As always its a pleasure to be a part of NACHI. As an FYI since I have joined, NACHI has led to at least a dozen inspections that I know of and probably several more that the clients just did not mention how they got my name. Thanks again.

Hi Nick, I've never met you yet and I like you! Pat yourself all you want, Your brainchild is awesome!

And it keeps coming . . .

At the launch of the Appalachian (WV/PA/OH) Chapter last night, three members (who drove several hours, after a day of inspections) came up to me, wanting to create chapters in Richmond, VA; Emmitsburg, MD; and Huntington, WV.

Additionally, I was overwhelmed by feedback from real estate agents in the area who mentioned that NACHI is establishing a baseline of respectability in the region, which had been soured on carry-a-ladder-and-flashlight "inspectors".

I had to look up where Lee Cunningham was that he received 12 inspections from the board. I have been here 3 or 4 years and have gotten 0.

With the exception of a draw co. and some spammers.

I looked into this, YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE A WEBSITE! (at least not one listed in www.nachi.org/profileintro.htm) Why do you expect to get leads from the web without a website??????? Next to air and a flashlight, you need a website to survive in this business... you at least need a website to expect leads from one. And Ben, don't forget to add www.nachi.org/webseal.htm

I was under the impression they were found on the "find an inspector" part of this web-site nick. I live in a rural, blue collar area. Have few competitors because I was the first one in HI almost 6 years ago. The ones I have now have no web-site, and there is no need for me to have one either. Due to the fact in a smaller areas fewer people use the web for service. ( It holds true to my area)

Again I thought it was from "Find an inspector" Not their personal web-sites. If websites are working for them that is great, I am surviving off of service, reputation, and repeat business.

Sorry for the mis-understanding.

[Nick Gromicko]

Ben, get the free website NACHI offers at www.InspectorPages.com (it only takes a few seconds) and then go to www.nachi.org/profileintro.htm and put the URL in your website field. If you can't figure out how to do it I can do it for you.

Subject: WV NACHI Meeting


Nick
I just returned from a great weekend of fun and learning in the mountains of West Virginia at Cheat Lake. I just wanted you to know how enjoyable and informative the chapter meeting and two days of instruction were. I want to personally thank you for having enough interest in our area to sponsor this event. This weekend alone was more than worth the cost of the event and my year's dues for NACHI.

I am looking forward to the meeting in June and further training in Radon.
Thanks again
David M. Haught
