Default So, can NACHI do a LiveFaceOnWeb?

Seems like with all the great things Nick & NACHI have provided us with over the years (including the "click to call this inspector" button), it seems like even a generic welcome (perhaps 2-3 to choose from) would not be out of the range of possibility?

Here's a post from another board, with reference to that HI's site:

I know some of you don't like this feature but I thought it would work out really well for my website.

I just wanted to say that livefaceonweb did a great job for me. Everything went smooth on their part (not my part) and I feel they gave me great quality for the price. The problems that did occur they handled professionally (even though none of it was their fault). She wore our company shirt (even though our logo is hard to see) and the hand movement is exactly what I wanted. For what they do and the price, if you are thinking of going in this direction, I would say use them.

Here is my website just in case you were thinking of doing the same thing.

Home Inspections Indiana - 226 | Home Inspections Northwest Indiana | Home Inspections Porter County | Home Inspections Lake County | Home Inspections LaPorte County | Home Inspections Newton County, Home Inspections Jasper County, Home Inspections S

Again, if you don't like this feature, that's fine.

Note: I'm going to make one more change so she only shows up when you first visit the website.

Russ,
In my read of your post, I would get the idea that we inspect per code? Also, I quit giving a guarantee after I had a client use it against me when there was no way to make her happy. She was just wanting to get a refund so she could pay another inspector to word the inspection her way to get out of the deal.

not at all! conform to . . .regulations would mean that, if we are required to be licensed, insured, etc in the area in which we operate, that we abide by those requirements

also, i quit giving a guarantee

i have no problem with leaving that out, mark; let's find another upbeat phrase to use, instead!

maybe-
" . . Your investment deserves the very best home inspection, and that's what we promise to deliver!"

after i had a client use it against me when there was no way to make her happy. She was just wanting to get a refund so she could pay another inspector to word the inspection her way to get out of the deal.

The noonandcranny site (one of the canadian inspectors) had this and it looked awesome. It wasn't cheap though.

I wouldn't mention the menu location as some guys have it at the left/top/right side. Just say in the menu.

Haha. Do you want a video of me walking out at your screen?

If Nick takes care of it for NACHI members then it'll work for any site. I'll look up what their prices are though.

Why not do four version, left, right, top and bottom, once the script is written, the different locations should be easy . . . my 2 cents worth . . do like the idea.

My thought was because you're paying to have each one done.
