John,

It looks real good, should be a winner....!

• Completing 3 years experience doing
inspections.

• Completing 1,000 fee-paid inspections
or hours of inspection-related continuing
education (combined) in their lifetime.

Just don't mention that 90% (my guess... ) became CMI's before anything close to this was required for membership................

I wonder why you would mention this it seems to get enough publicity as it is.
(my guess... )
Really does not hold water as an example I and my wife where one of the early birds to get our CMIs
We both have well over 1,000 Inspections and many many more then 3 years doing inspections plus I guess some where around 1,000 hours of education .
I expect many others who got in Early are also in this area.
Even if many are far short so what they followed the rules at the time , I have no concerns with this .

Roy Cooke Sr.
Love the Brochure hope it will be available not in a PDF so we can add our names and information .

I will provide the contact info for the printer that made
these brochures for everyone. They will work with each
person to insert their personal info and do the printing.

If somone wants to do something else, that is up to them.

[Joseph Hagarty, CMI]

As an editable .pdf, the brochure can be printed by Members as needed.

Three things
(1) I print all my own Brochures
(2) shipping to Canada is expensive and slow.
(3) Most shippers use UPS and UPS also adds another brokerage charge to Canada.
........ Cookie Some suppliers can not handle Canadian Credit Cards

I understand that some people may want to do their own printing.
But all I have is what the printer has created for me (the pdf file).

If some want to take this pdf file and modify it for themselves and do
their own printing, then that is up to each person.

Those that want the nachi store to do the printing, I will have a cost
quote shortly. http://certifiednachistore.com/

Joe;

John,

Looks professional but quite a read, lots of information to digest. Have you thought about using a Rack Card? The size forces you to distill the message down into the essential idea or concept you are attempting to convey. I would begin by thinking about focusing on what sets a CMI apart from the rest of the inspectors, then direct them to the website where you can elaborate on the theme.

Personally, I have stooped using brochures when my first 3,000 ran out and began using rack cards to target specific markets and drive people to my website to gain more information, the tactic has worked for me.

In any case it appears that CMI is moving forward and that is a fine accomplishment.


All the best - Joe.

John,

Excellent looking brochure. Depending on the pricing, I may order a thousand.

If my printer is cheaper, I'll simply steal some ideas out of this brochure.
