Anybody got a copy of the new DU magazine. If you do can you look in the back at the outfitter section and tell me if you see an ad for Mossy Island Outfitters. It is the nov-dec issue.
Thanks,
Rocky Leflore

You'll never get kicked out of Del Boca Vista for embezzling money, you cheapskate.

I tried the number from my cell phone and the "Y" is messing it up.

I's suspect your phone ringing off the wall. Rocky, I'd sure be interested in hearing first hand from you ratio of tire kickers to paid hunters off such adds. Word of mouth is slow but gold. Add looks great, but please let me know.

Double it is amazing how long it takes to build a guide business. When I first started ten years ago I went into it with the attitude marketing and just get new customers every year(why you see so many guides go in and out), but I learned real quick it is all about those return customers. Now I have about an 80% return base and 20% new every year. I am expanding the business next year and wanted to try get in early for next year. The worst place for advertising is the keyword searches and ads like this one cost you an arm and a leg. So with me I going to throw promotions to all my return customers to bring somebody. The return on advertising is not very good, but always looking to establish that relationship with that next group who will refer the next group, but now to finally answer your question yes I do have a lot of tire kickers from advertising and alot of booking from referalls because they really know what they are getting into.
Thanks for replying guys,
