Ja Norio, the forum is really starting to take off hey. You guys have done a great job

Yeah, I've been sneaking in one or two categories here and there, working our way to the all-encompassing "Music" Forum idea. As well as becoming the "Brain Police" (Rene will get that ref.) by putting some rules in place.

But Norio has been adding the really cool stuff like the chat and doing some Facebook advertising that is really paying off.

I said a month ago that it would be nice to have 300 members by the GFSA's 1st birthday (I think we stood around 250 members then), but we're Not There Yet (let's see who gets that one) and we have already reached 399!

Thanks guys ? I'm really enjoying the ride and comments like these help me keep going. This never feels like work to me so all I need is to find a way to make money and I will have found my lifelong career ?

Jeez, I can just imagine my 60 yr old self sitting coding the new whatzit for the forum ?

Considering your offer to help run it, I may just consider that. You me and Alan?

I would only be involved in the technical stuff though. I'm scared of retail ?

Norio, as you know, I've looked into this at depth.

But if you guys are really interested, let's take it off-forum please. PM or email me.

NorioDS

Yup, Alan you scared me into never wanting to get involved in retail in music ever ?

AlanRatcliffe

It's viable, and there's nothing to be scared of. The backend stuff is easy - I've set up other stores a few times myself.

...but you need to have the startup capital for stock as suppliers will not give you discounts if you are not stocking a certain amount (they are still stuck in the bricks-and-mortar paradigm).

I hear you there Alan...retail sucks ass...been there done that...
