New member saying hello

[baht'at]

Just to say hello to the community .
I made a career change earlier this year and decided to do one of the available courses. They say any one can stick tiles on walls and floors but the course gave instructions on how to do the tricky parts and is well worth doing even if you only want to do your own walls and floors.
I have visited all my local bathroom, conservotory, kitchen and tile shops and advertised in the local papers with only a trickle of work from my endeavours so if any one has any advice on how to increase my work load I would really appreciate their advice.

hi, which course did you go on

Hi

Try getting to know a few plumbers and plasters, and give them some of your business cards. They should get you some work. Tile shops will eventually start handing out your card to customers( just make sure happy customers phone the tile shop back afterwrds and give them their feedback on your job)

hi, which course did you go on

Hi,
Not sure where you are but I am in West Yorkshire and the nearest one for me was the Yorskhire Tiling Academy Ltd in Bradford , which do a five and ten day courses.
I have noticed there are links on this site for courses so it is worth looking at those for one near to you.
As being a newbie myself to this group I have seen there are many who will offer advice if you ask .
