Jarola Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Don't get too excited, I havent' found one... yet! Instead, I'm asking you what your ideal locator would be like? Give me your serious answers, please. What would be a fair price for you (keeping in mind that they have to earn a living too)? What terms would make you drool? I've given this a lot of thought myself. I've read plenty of posts about locators on the forum and I've checked out the websites for all of the major players. Seems like their prices and policies are pretty much the same, so what would make one stand out over another? And trust has got to be a huge factor as well. What can they do to assure you of their honesty and reliability? I'd like to hear from the locators, too. What can we as your clients do to make your job easier? What are we being unreasonable in expecting? What don't we expect and should? Regards, Jacob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alyssamma Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Jacob, it will be interesting to see the responses here. This has been asked at least 2x before. Of course, the basics - communication, getting good locs, not requiring payment upfront. and getting locs quickly are always said. Not sure if anyone will add much more than that Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faith Vending Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 I might add a good replacement policy including poor performers ($20 or under for a 1st few months.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alyssamma Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 To me, that goes with getting good locs But yes, one way or another... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bravo Duck Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 The perfect locator is a retired multibillionaire executive who wants to "give back" to the community so he pays you $50 for the privilege of finding you locations. He guarantees he will find these locations within 24 hours because he personally knows the CEO or president of every large restaurant chain or corporation so all he has to make is one call to secure 100s of locations. He also guarantees that each of these locations will produce $100 a month or he will buy brand new equipment for replacement locations. He carries a cell phone 24/7 that only you have the # to so you can contact him anytime the whim strikes you. After your first order he sends you a new Ferrari as a thank you gift for doing business with him. After every subsequent order the thank you gift gets larger, houses, yachts, airplanes, etc... . He's always very polite and happy to hear from you when you call, even if its 3am and he was in the middle of having sex with his 24 year old wife. He just wants whats best for you.
