Before I got back into the saddle I placed an ad for my services also.
The problem was that the people that answered the ad were generally trying to get somethnig for nothing and I would have needed to have at least a dozen jobs on the go at once to make it work.
Maybe some of the more specific mags would be better such as the self build ones.
I know that these cost mega bucks but at least once you get going you get away from the idiots that think you'll work for peanuts.
looking forward to seeing the ad however, I agree with woodyoulike though, it needs to have a strong eyecatching design in order to get the punters. [/i]
