Out of interest, have any of you who already had your free listing noticed any business out of it?

Asked him to call back later so I could do a little research on them.
I'd ask them who they had sent the 41 orders to and if that florist had paid a grand.... and if you paid a grand, would they then stop sending orders to the other florist (who had paid a grand)...and then would they look for another florist to give them a grand, so they could stop sending you the orders. The mind boggles!!

Dont know why 41 is such a magic number.
I had a call very similar to yours, asking me
''would you be surprised to hear that in the last 6 weeks we have have 41 enquiries for flowers in the AB.. .. postcode?''
''Yes, very surprised, there aren't that many residences in this postcode''
Sudden end of conversation
