Hi Everyone!
As we're just into the new year, and I know a lot of you are probably busy with taxes and things, I thought I might try to impose on you a bit.
The LAN Center industry really lacks any kind of statistics or reporting. Nobody knows how we're doing as an industry, what the real averages are, and if you have a down year you don't know if everyone is doing bad or it's just you.
I want to fix this. I've been operating LANs and consulting with others for years, so I know quite a few people, but not near enough to get a really good solid picture of what goes on.
So what I'd like to do is conduct a survey with as many LAN owners as I can. The more people that participate, the better! The results of this survey will be compiled, personal and business-specific information removed, and then shared with everyone who participated (for FREE). It will also be available to anyone else who requests it, after a small delay (also FREE).
If you are interested in participating, PLEASE email me your contact information at eric[at)dreamgcs.com, or via forum PM. I promise I will not try to sell you anything, or sell your information off to anyone else. Surveys will be sent out in about a week. (Jan 14-ish)
