Hi everyone.

CallCentreVoice continues to grow well, and we think we've reinforced our reputation as the best place for unbiased call centre and customer service discussion, but in order to continue to grow, we want to attract more members.

New members bring new questions, ideas and experience; they help us keep the discussion fresh and interesting, and can help provide alternative viewpoints and approaches to the issues that affect us all on a daily basis.

As you might already be aware, CallCentreVoice is run on a fairly small operating budget, so we generally don't advertise because to do so would increase those operating costs and perhaps require cutbacks elsewhere.

So we rely on our members to help us continue to develop this community, your community.

If you know anyone who might benefit from being a member, please tell them to join us. Everyone is welcome, regardless of location, position, experience or any other 'demographic'.

You might already have noticed the 'Invite' button on the forums page - this was introduced to make it easier for you to invite your friends and acquaintances. Please help us by using it responsibly.

John (on behalf of the bods who bring you CallCentreVoice)

Bump.

It's quite simple....Bring back advertising since the vast majority of members are interested in revenue growth not answering questions about how to effectively operate a call center.

Maybe you should think about hosting 2 sites.(????) At a minimum it would take care of your money struggles and at the same time alleviate the "conflict of interest" subject.

Troy has a point, there continues to be a large number of 'in it for one hit' joiners, simply out to generate business leads which they probably get in the interim before htey are removed. All the warnings and removals in the world wont prevent them from posting.

Bottom line is there are many people helping each other with regard to technical issues but as for the other stuff if its not adding revenue then they don't participate.

Here's a couple of ideas, either put up a warning 'pop up' before you post or vet the first 5 or 6 posts from a newbie. Whatever CCV decide, I agree with Troy, the current system despite being changed has treated some symptoms but made no inroads on the cause.
