You all gotta check out this new, cool inspection franchise site.

Have you thought of offering a monthly payment plan for this instead of the chunk payment? It might be easier for some people to get into it.

[John McKenna]

May I offer a suggestion. (I hope I do not offend)

It struck me as odd that there is a picture on the front
page of an Inspectors Franchise site that shows what looks
like the REALTOR explaining the HOUSE specs to the CLIENT.

What is wrong with this picture?

Is Deanna a Home Inspector? Can she lead a national
organization of home inspectors? Forgive me for asking
the obvious. Does this add confidence to the NACHI image
when a NACHI secretary becomes the instant leader of a
nation wide inspection franchise? Can we say "shake and
bake"?

Am I missing something?

[Thomas M. Hauswirth]

Deanna,

After a quick read of your "About GRI" page I counted 4 grammatical errors and 2 spelling errors. I also noted some others on other pages. I do not intend this as criticism, but if you want to portray the company as a national inspection franchise its web pages should be free of these errors. Call me if you want to go over them.

I am working on the cc page tonight.

Good luck with your project!!!

So... I am going to take that post as a complament.

How many of the report kits do you get? Is there a monthly, annual number?

[ldapkus]

No report writing software, laptop,camera, E&O insurance,ladder, logo design,fax,scanner,copier, etc. and you could throw in a few headaches for no charge.
