"And as an aside: The network has been a great resource for me. I have
been able to save time resourcing products and services I need for my
business by being able to just ask someone else in the business. I get
an instant answer. Living in Northern Ireland it is a bit more
difficult to do business. We lack resources for one and we lack the
competiveness that makes most business do what they say they will do
because there is no where else for us to go. So even if I find the
product or service, a lot of the time they just don't show up. I have
gone through 2 egg suppliers, 1 major supplier and 3 produce suppliers,
because one day they just decided they wouldn't show up with our
delivery even though they would say when called, we will be there in 20
minutes. Amazing, it truly is. And granted, being from California I was
accustomed to companies fighting for your business and have tried not
to have too many expectations, but if you want to make money you have
to deliver the goods. Thanks again for the brilliant idea and hard work
you do to create a great food community."
