Posted By Deana Daniels Hi, A slightly different enquiry. I am a freelance health and safety consultant. Ive been in business for a year and business is progressing well (thank you to all of those on the IOSH forum who advised me to go for it). I am on the IOSH consultancy register and have recieved a number of leads via this method. I have been approached by Yellow Pages about putting a small advert in my local Yellow Pages. Have any other consultants done this ? If so did you have a good response ? Do you think its worth the £200 investment? Your views would be much appreciated. Deana

Posted By Deana Daniels Ian, I have sent you an e-mail, as requested. Regards Deana

Posted By Paul Craythorne Deana, Imagine you are a Production Manager or H&S Officer/Manager at a company and you decide that you need a consultant to assist you with health and safety on site. In the year 2004 with all the technology available to you do you honestly think that you would pick up the Yellow Pages to look for a health and safety consultant? A local plumber or florist maybe. I have had a free listing in the Yellow Pages for quite some time and not one enquiry. When they phoned me to ask me if I wanted to spend hundreds of pounds on a large advert I wasn't very excited and decided that there were more suitable media on which to spend my advertising budget.
