There are several. To start with the click thru to your business web site is awesome. I get hundreds of clicks to my web site as a direct result of posting on IJCSA. If I type in my company name on yahoo or other search engines there are more IJCSA headings then there is with my on business name alone.
I have read many great tips on the forum. A lot of them are great ideas that I never thought of myself. I have made many great friends. I have learned a lot from the members. There is strength in numbers. For the start up companies there are so many testimonials on here that praise the help they have received. I look forward to learning more from the forum as time goes on. I will never know everything I need to and it is great knowing that I have IJCSA to go to in time of need. The answers are not always there but a lot of times it is.
Anything you join such as chamber of commerce, clubs, and so on , will work best for you if you participate with the group.
If you read over the past post and you cannot find one thing that helps you then I would not join either. But I bet if you do read several of them you will find some great ideas or something that you did not know before you read them.
If nothing else and you do know it all then we would love to learn more from you. So if you can find it in your heart to help others , please join us . Look forward to your post and learning more about our industry . Dan

I have also saw some members refer work to other members for work that was just a little to far for them to go. I have saw several job request posted for other states. I have saw sponsors give discounts and nice prizes for contest on forum. I saw some equipment for sale on post. And wouldn't it be nice if you had a huge job that there was no way you can handle by yourself and to be able to have contacts that might be able to sub or help you out on that job. Just two weeks ago I checked out the vacuums at cleanfreak. I found that with the discount I got one for $380 , frieght included that I have been paying $460 for from my regular supplier. That alone saved me $80. If nothing else this one instant was worth being a member. I am sure others could give great testimonies also.

Nicely said. I went through awhile ago and made a page of testimonials. What Dan says really makes alot of sense, and to benefit from any networking group, you have to network. Though extra bonus having some of the #1 searches for janitorial and cleaning, customers actually finding you on the web doesn`t hurt either.

Well I am a newbie to IJCSA and on my first visit I was going crazy with all the wonderful information. I trully did learn a lot on my first visit that I have talked to my business partner about incorporating what I had learned into our business. Like I said I am a newbie, and learned a lot and I can say that I am very impressed and happy. Unfortunately, if I were speaking for my printer, the printer would say otherwise Looking at it now, it still seems to be smoking from all the wonderful printouts I got.

Thank you IJCSA for being a wonderful spot to come
