So...clearly...you are saying that the "network member" will set a fee and will receive his entire fee, with no deductions for his inspection. Is that correct?

Correct.

And by the way, check into www.nachi.org/ir.htm www.OverSeeIt.com www.MoveInCertified.com www.IAC2.org and on and on and you will notice something. None of them "compete" with InterNACHI members... they are InterNACHI members... ALL of them!

But yes, we will be in direct competition with non-members and intend to win that competition in the commercial inspection market quite handily.

This Cominspect is a business....a multi-inspector firm that solicits commercial inspections for "network members".

How do you figure that it does not put "network NACHI member" in direct competition with non-network NACHI member in the same geographical area?

Will you be competing for business with NACHI members, like Dale Duffy and Erol Kartal, who have successful commercial inspection businesses who decide NOT to join your network or will you only target your marketing to areas in which you have network inspectors?

This is the first I have even heard of this "Network"...is there information about this somewhere on this MB?

[Erol Kartal]

Is this like a telemarketing firm that calls business owners asking them if they have a roof leak and that we have guy five minutes away who can check it out?

[Nick Gromicko]

Uh, no.

I don't figure that it doesn't. Where do you see me saying that it doesn't?

It feels like that old game show where the contestants wear masks and ask the mystery guest questions til they find out who he is.

Is this just another Association branch of NACHI , much like CMI was?

Then it DOES put your business (performed by "network members") in direct competition with NACHI members (who are not "network members") for commercial business.

[Nick Gromicko]

No. InterNACHI members are already in competition with the other local InterNACHI members. This is news to you?

LOL. You're good.

No, this time..it is your company, Cominspect, that will be in competition with NACHI members who choose not to be in your network, but prefer to work on their own. Right?

Anybody know what this network, or anything about this Cominspect is since Nick won't answer me?

I understand it to be like this.....cominspect is a company that will provide benefits (marketing, insurance, legal, etc) to inspectors who agree to work for it as "network members" and who agree to use Nick's Comsop.

Payment for the inspection goes through Nick to the inspector, but he says the inspector gets the full amount of the fee that he set for the inspection...so it is unclear where the Cominspect costs are paid from.

[Nick Gromicko]

Sorry Dale, too busy making Jim laugh. Here is the latest update: www.nachi.org/cominspect.htm

Jim. thank you.

I do not see any benefit in it as posted, but it might help someone who does not know anything about commercial inspections I guess.

[Dale Duffy]

ComInspect's goal is to corner the commercial inspection market for InterNACHI members and to provide InterNACHI members with commercial inspection jobs, forms, subcontractors, marketing tools and free insurance.

OK Nick..thanks.
