[hamdogg]

Hi all where's best place to look for small contracts, just after a small contract or two to get the business going a bit more!

Go and introduce yourself. Sell yourself then leave a card with them....it,s what I do.

You have to network or them

Pubs, holidays, recommendations, you often meet people in strange ways, get talking about what you do etc...

My mate just got back from Egypt, his 9 year old daughter made a friend, the parents got talking about whatever, next thing you know they've exchanged details and he's on the verge of sealing a 3 year contract for a civil engineering company.
