    is anyone a member of the guild of master craftsman and if so, does it benefit in any way.

    had the man in today and he didn’t understand the word “no”

    My personal opinion is it’s a complete waste of time.

    They’re only interested in your money – and I believe most small businesses realise this so there is no real “cachet” in being a member.

    It’s far better to be an official member of the UKSG. I think you’re already a member Tony, so why not download the UKSG artwork and include it on your vehicle(s) and letterheads.

    You customers will be much more impressed 😀

    as much as im biased tony, phills right.

    its something i think that will develop in time with the UKSG. (time i dont have 😆 )
    but i honestly think that because the group is growing so fast, the obvious step to take next is to have some sort of standard approved certificate of some kind.
    i have mentioned this before, but will get round to it when i can think of a realistic method for this.
    i know how i would approach a vinyl applicators one but after that? 🙄

    there are far to many certificates being given out willy nilly these days.
    like phill said …pay up and you get one.. nothing more.
    i dont know how some of these folk sleep at night. i for one would put my name on a certificate approving someone/COMPANY just because they gave me a couple of hundred quid. if they fail they fail…

    i dont know how many bsi logos i have put on vans that are wrecks.. the company is dodgy and has sprung up overnight.. yet they get one of these badges to wave under potential customers nosies.. 👿
