    It is assumed you will be explaining more about your business plan.
    Give back more to this world than we take.

    Yeh you're out there. lol Its pretty remote. I looked up Glasgow. Its tough. Small towns are obviously going to get a lot less leads than a big city. I look to get 5% of the leads I bring in. It wouldn't be a ton of leads. But I would get you to the top of google in Glasgow and some of the small surrounding towns. That would be the best I could do......If I were you I'd place a make google places ad, and make a facebook page and invite as many people from your town as you can to like it. That would be a good way to to spread your service in a small town. Yard signs on the main streets with "scrap metal pick up" on them might be a good way to go in a small town.

    Yeh I can explain it more. Im a little confused because I'm a new member. I'm not sure if I'm aloud to share my links yet. I've had threads disappear.........Basically I'll find you scrap leads through my website, and off social media if you live in a bigger city. You can always email me if you want to know more. brian@getjunk.net

    I'm actually looking for a scrapper that wants to do Atlanta area. Ive been working on pages on my website for that area but I don't have a scrapper up there yet. I see you're in Carrollton, ga. Would Atlanta metro area be too far for you? Looking for someone that wants to do a large portion of Atlanta and surrounding suburbs.

    what I would suggest since you have a paid membership now is that you can post in the classifieds as well as a buy/sell section

    Welcome to the forum. I had a few questions and sent you an email. You should post in the classified section at least like Mikeinreco suggested. It might help you out here a little.

    Happy scrapping
