Hey Ed (and other vendors), this is sheerly out of curiosity and I mean no ill will by asking this, but how much of your business is generated by i-club alone?
Something I've always kinda wondered.
Hope all is well.

Word of mouth/ referals = 50% of new customers.
Internet Searching = 20%

Word of mouth is definitely the biggest part of our business, but I-Club offers a good area to announce new services, products, expansions, etc that would otherwise be difficult to let the community know of.

Thanks for breaking it down Paul, I've always been curious to see how you guys (all of our great bay area vendors) get business.
My parents have a contracting business, and they are 100% word of mouth... I def would rather listen to someone for advice then to read it somewhere in some ad. Good thing about this site is that you can advertise and get word of mouth especially since you guys have a good reputation.
