When did this place get so big?

[babalu87]

Stuff from yesterday on page three?
Its getting tough to keep track of all the discussions going on here, hopefully everyone is getting questions answered and issues resolved.

I know there has been a bump recently but WOW, Craig must be running to the bank every day

I found this site only yesterday while Googling for gasfication of wood. I have been burning wood for 40 years and maybe I can add something.

Ya, it is getting busy. I kinda liked the suggestion of dividing the hearth room up some more. I think we need a seperate room for pelletstoves.

Bunch of new folks coming in, which is really great. As far as site income, it tends to stay the same.....I never raise the rates and often lower them! That is why the best businesses have separate sales departments! Hearth.com is more a labor of love, and I do not maximize revenues. Someday I may sell it to an entity that does....and then maybe they will hire me to do all the new features (test lab, video, etc.).....

My big money months were the couple after Katrina. I still look back to those google reports......one day it hit $300 a day for the google ads. Not bad - that would be $9K a month just for those ads! Could probably do 1/2 that even now if I maximized, but heck it's more fun to hang out here, play tennis and go on dates with WWidow.....only X number of hours in the day.

I think adding the goggle search on this page and having a short list of the most popular links will help some folks answer their own questions. I'll try to do those two this week. And, I want to add a bunch more podcasts (Gulland has agreed to do some), and get more bloggers going. Lots to do......and the rest of time to do it.

I would guess it is all those Hearth.com Super Cedars we have sent out.

How about for the holidays if anyone wants to send me their own labels, I WILL AFFIX THEM AT NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE. Could be the picture of the family or just some text. Keep it down to maximum of 30.
Great stocking stuffers

Hearth.com Supercedars? What the heck are they?

 

[babalu87]

Thomas, I'm the one that e-mailed you this AM and asked about ordering 100 and getting a few gift boxes so I can give them away as gifts.

With everything I am saving burning wood the extra spent on your product will be worth the hassle of newspaper ETC.

 

[NWfuel]

Thanks for your support Bab. If you want to send me some labels (3" diameter) I will put them on a few.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Hey, it's not even light out here yet. Wait until Thomas has some coffee.

 

[webbie]

It just shows you the real Thomas - a pussycat, but he is not the guy you would want to get in a bar fight with....especially at 4 in the morning.

 

[Corie]

I can attest to this ^^^.

 

[babalu87]

Shouldn't the label say "remove wrapper" instead of "open wrapper"? Wasn't there a guy on here that didn't know if the wrapper was to be removed before lighting?

I SOOOOOOOO want to get into a packaging company that makes something like Twinkies and put OPEN OTHER END on BOTH SIDES every box.

I just ordered a few hundred thousand labels. We did change it to read "remove wrapper."
Thanks for the clue!

OK Now I get it. I just refreshed! Thats a good looking label.

 

[webbie]

That AOL is still screwing you up!

You should have seen that early - I had to wait all day.

 

[NWfuel]

Some get to wait all day while others must work all day. Did you just put it up for this discussion? or are you going to keep it awhile.

 

[webbie]

Oh, just as a lark - I've been changing it every couple of days....it's like a costume for Halloween.
