Well I'm happy for you. I can't spell for $hit and don't know anything about structuren a sentence. But I can run a business and I'm putting money in the bank. What I'm saying here is I don't get your point.

The poster in this topic had the writing and spelling skills of a 2nd grader.

Thanks!
 

Thanks to everyone who posted. I got a lot of good ideas. The free newspapers were very helpful since I live close to 2 rest stops in IL.

I am not easily scared off...

For those who may ask, my business is a tax preparation and bookkeeping business. One of our focuses (or at least I am trying to see of there is a market is Truckers)

This how it came about...

Right now I work for Jackson Hewitt (until Tuesday) and I had an owner operator come in to get his taxes done. His bookkeeping was a mess and he had an accountant tell him to never change what he deducts. In short, this advise has cause him to lose thousands to the IRS. This accountant charged him an unbelievable amount to do nothing. Pretty much this jerk was overcharging and putting zero effort into it. After spending more that 5 hours on the phone with him and his wife, I was finally able to help him. This is where I got the idea. I was already starting a bookkeeping and tax prep business but this gave me an idea-I could help Owner Operators.

Since, my husband's uncle was an owner operator for his entire life and he was one of my favorite people I knew that I could work well with Truckers. I worked in plastics and distribution and know that truckers are a close net group of people so that is why I picked this forum to get some advise. I understand that some are blunt and that is what I love the most about them. I am a blunt person and I would rather tell it like it is and get it over with than pussy foot around.

I have few of my Owner Operators helping me get the word out but I really appreciate all of your help.
