[cma-l] Help with funding

Sat Jul 26 20:45:18 BST 2014

I've just had the pitch this morning about the 'national trade exchange'
this morning from someone locally and there just aren't enough businesses
in the local area to make it worth the investment/annual fees at the
moment.  It's also a commission structure business (similar to MLM) so be
aware each rep is earning from the next.
