Doug, I looked them up and I would advise some caution. Not only do they charge a fee per lead (with no guarantee the lead is a good or valid one) they are also apparently entitled to an 8% commission on your fees if you end up doing business…

Anynoe useing Thumbtack.com to generate any business?

I just got my first lead from Thumbtack.com. All I did was sign up for free, add my profile information and then update items until I was sitting at 100%. I did not know until today there is a $1.99 charge to reply to a request for information, but $1.99 is a small price when charging by the hour for a session with a client.I'm not advertising for Thumbtack.com, just wondered if anyone else has used it or is familia with it. DWSee More

Convinced my biggest skeptic!

Posted on October 16, 2009 at 5:40am 3 Comments

Ever since I started learning hypnosis with the idea of becoming a Consulting Hypnotist, one if my biggest supporters was also my biggest skeptic…my wife. She backs my play. In fact, she is the one that set up and bought most of my home office décor. Like I said, she backs my play…all the way.

I like the live streaming as well. Especially as I know alot of the curerent students. It was great, I had 12 days of NLP during the day, and HMI case conferences, classes, and hypno practice at night. Meeting all of the staff I had been watching for so long was terrific as well. It was a real confidence boost to see how I stood with my peers from my distance work. That was probably the best part of all. Mark

Welcome Doug, fellow HMI student. I just got back from Tarzana. Went out for an NLP course with John & Joe. Great course, really loved the visit. Meeting all of the instructors I had been watching online. I have someone coming by in a moment for a session, so gotta go! Mark
