  2. Federal Government Suppliers - Is it a scam?

    If you are really interested in getting on the list do a little research. You don't have to pay anyone anything. There is some paperwork to fill out and that gets you on the list. That is all. I know people that have been on the list and they say that unless you go out and work that sector...

    Daktronics does produce a high quality product. They will also compete against you. This is documented over and over. Contact Deacon Wardlow <deacon@vantageled.com> at Vantage LED. They are a wholesale operation, and don't compete against you for the same jobs. Very high quality product...

  11. Adwords

    We geo filter to the greater Dallas / Fort Worth area and I have also restricted our ads from running outside business hours. Negative adwords are important. We put things such as cheap, low cost, cheapest, etc. in as negative. We aren't interested in those "customers". I would rather see my...

    I respect the marketing effort and acknowledge that it is successful. I bought Avery materials from them until Grimco matched their price. My problem with Fellers... The phone reps that we deal with are just down right nasty. Rude, unresponsive and...well nasty.. I don't need that. If I...
