Hi Organizing Peeps, Dennis posted the following discussion under the I-ASK general discussion board, which is a busy place. So I thought I move this disucssion/information over from general to this group for future reference. I'd love to hear your experience with them and if you have any tips to enhance and improve leads from them. Thanks! - Sandy

For the Professional Organizers in I-ASK - I just got this in an e-mail and thought it may be a good source for CLA's and for our Organizers to gain additional exposure.

Here is the "scoop" about FMO.com. I've been on for several years. You can list your business for free BUT in your text be sure to ask them to contact you DIRECTLY or to include their contact info in the BODY of their inquiry/request. The site encourages users to use the "shop around" feature which sends the inquiry to ALL organizers listed, BUT only those who PAY for a premier listing get the contact information! :) And you have to pay by County and there are many. I DO pay for one county and do get leads. That said you have to respond asap. Probably 75% of the time someone has already contacted them by the time I do (within 4 hours or less). There are at least 50 for Dallas county - which is too many to compete with for the money. So I pay for a premier membership for a county that I am willing to organize in that has less organizers with premier memberships. I still see all the leads to other counties but can't contact them, since I don't pay :( Probably 10% or less click directly on my listing and contact me directly. Most are "shopping around". Hope this info helps anyone who has not used it. - Sandy
