| 15:35.09 | z00dax | what sort of a company is it ? |
| 15:35.31 | z00dax | if you actually plan on getting work done, then someone effecient might be a good idea |
| 15:36.00 | z00dax | if you can find someone with $IQ > Room Temp - thats a bonus |
| 15:36.45 | morsing | z00dax: Huh? I think you misunderstood. |
| 15:37.10 | morsing | This is the secretary for registering a limited company |
| 15:37.36 | z00dax | you mean a company secretary, not a secretary for a company |
| 15:37.55 | z00dax | in most cases, you dont really care - have you accountants use whoever they usually do |
| 15:37.56 | morsing | Yes |
| 15:38.26 | morsing | So the accountant company will take care of it? But I have to appoint someone when I register the company |
| 15:38.51 | z00dax | iirc, the accounting firm will do that for you |
| 15:39.04 | z00dax | they usually charge something, and use one of their own people |
| 15:39.11 | z00dax | so you dont need to mess around with such stuff |
| 15:39.37 | z00dax | i suppose, when you have more than a few people working in the company it might be a good idea to nominate the finance manager or a director as a CS |
| 15:39.51 | z00dax | but till that time, I'd recommend you just use the accountants firm to manage such hassle |
| 16:03.51 | morsing | z00dax: Could you be secondary NS and MX for aixperts.co.uk please? |
| 16:06.22 | z00dax | if you want me to be, yes |

| 19:19.37 | goibhniu | put it in a box and centre it if you really want to be flashy |
| 19:19.38 | antiphase | tbh it's one of those things that I'd do for myself, but never try and sell because I'm not that good at it. That doesn't alter the fact that I could manage myself with a little bit of application though ;) |
| 19:19.54 | morsing | Don't even need an application |
| 19:20.05 | morsing | goibhniu: Hmm... |
| 19:20.32 | goibhniu | morsing: you don't even need it to come up in search results |
| 19:21.00 | goibhniu | morsing: the worst thing you could do is to try to make something impressive |
| 19:21.02 | morsing | I know. |
| 19:21.31 | goibhniu | you want a website with your contact and business details on it and enough for someone to recognise it as you |
| 19:21.50 | goibhniu | morsing: I'll do it for you |
| 19:22.30 | morsing | :) |
| 19:23.08 | goibhniu | morsing: or I can tell you what to do in 2 minutes step by step with mozilla |
| 19:23.48 | morsing | Ohh... I don't want to use a tool. They mess up the html code |
| 19:23.51 | goibhniu | morsing: don't you have a website with pictures that murb owns? |
| 19:24.03 | morsing | Huh? |
| 19:24.09 | morsing | Not that I'm aware of :) |
| 19:24.21 | goibhniu | morsing will I give you a template here? |
