Default Re: Local Chattel Web Site Idea

Martin,

The idea seems pretty sound to me.

One thing I would do, that wouldn't cost a bunch, would be to make up some fliers and print up some business cards and get them out all over the area.

Don't know where you live, but I have no trouble at all doing things like that around here.
