OUR MISSION
I
have been associated with the siding & window
business since the mid 70's. I understand the
business and know the problems that the home
improvement contractor faces.
IN
THE MID 90's ..
I
was introduced to CYBERSPACE, like most of you I
was confused & felt inferior to kids who
could access information at the speed of light
and I couldn't turn the thing on!
I
saw the hand writing on the wall:
Learn the new technology or take back seat to
those progressive business people who will learn
to apply the latest technology.
I
LEARNED THE WAYS ..
To
use the computer, not only to cut marketing costs
but increase productivity and give the consumer a
choice. A way for "On-Liners" to gather
information needed to find the best choices and
options.
THE
TELEPHONE ..
Imagine
~ 50 - 60 years ago ~ there were people who
refused to install a telephone. Sounds pretty
silly doesn't it? I'm 56 years of age, from the
south and I can clearly remember those who did
not want a telephone in their home or business.
Today it's the same mentality which refuses to
use the Internet in their business.
It's
just a matter of time and you will be forced to
use this marvelous tool or face tremendous
decline. BE CAREFUL - DON'T BE LEFT TOO FAR
BEHIND!
MANY
OF YOU THINK ..
The
computer and the "net" is a
new-fangled-fad which is not needed to run your
business. I would suggest that those of you who
think this way are WRONG ~ same as some people
thought about the telephone.
Our
schools teach our children to use the computer in
everyday life ~ and you think you have a choice?
NOW
IT'S YOUR TURN ..
Consumers
and contractors will both benefit from this
opportunity to meet each other on the
"net".
THE
HOMEOWNER ..
Is
better prepared to do business when he/she knows
the terminology and how we charge for the
improvements. The more the homeowner understands,
the better the results. They can learn these
things from this site.
As
a matter of fact, interested homeowners come here
by the thousands each month to gather information
and find contractors who can fill their needs.
Dealers
& contractors come here to see what is new
and available to them. As time goes by more &
more manufacturers of materials & accessories
will link from us.
CONTACT
US ..
We
want to introduce homeowners to qualified
contractors and/or manufacturers who can fill
their needs.

I
founded www.side4less.com
In
order to accomplish the following ..
1.
Provide the consumer with enough information to
locate and communicate with home
improvement professionals
about (possibly) their largest investment ~ their
home!
To
simply gather enough information to feel
comfortable about the contractors they invite
into their homes for an interview.
Here
at www.side4less.com web site you
can see how we measure for siding
& windows. How we price and what you
are charged for. Learn the siding nomenclature
and language .
All
of this can be found on this very informative
site so the homeowner can communicate with the
dealers or their representatives. The better
informed homeowner will feel more qualified to
make the decision to improve their home.
2.
Provide a source of low cost sales contacts for
the home improvement contractor, therefore,
passing these savings on to the homeowner. When
the homeowner is better informed they will be
able to do business much quicker.
3.
Build web sites for the home improvement
contractor at a very reasonable cost. Therefore,
the consumer will be able to meet contractors on
the internet and view their achievements &
credentials.
3.
Host the contractor's web sites at a very
reasonable cost.
4.
Provide free consultation to those who need and
want to enter Cyberspace and learn how to greatly

Improvement Manufacturers & Contractors
Makes
no difference if you have other links, you want
this one in your marketing effort. Check to see
if you may "LINK" from this very
popular site to your site.
If
someone in your organization tells you,
"we're linked, we're fine, we don't need
them". In essence they are saying
"we've got all we need." You should
question their attitude. They simply don't
understand sales. (usually it's a
relative)
You
might ask them: "Why don't we want thousands
more interested homeowners seeing our site each
month - regardless of other things we have
going?"
If the answer they give you makes sense, I'll buy
your lunch.

know how to help in the following areas:
Home Improvement ( siding &
windows )

will design & build your site
We
will publish your site on the web
