Claims to be a web design company after viewing their site I realised I'd seen the layout before....

Web design is not web design when you're just selling on templates.

The art of good business is being a good middleman...

The art of good business is having a unique product to sell not pretending you can create something you can't.

If you want to be a designer you've got to learn to expose these people who are taking your potential clients under false pretence.

Good business starts with marketing, know your market. Always stay competitive or raise the prices (not always being cheaper works). Always have good communication between clients.

The main section of good business is? You got it! Always keep your current customers happy more than trying to find new customers, customers always spread good word by mouth!

Yupp. The absolute core of corporate business. I know a guy who made a fortune bringing french paperweights into britain in the 60s. Doesn't matter what it is, really. Supply, demand.

Not that purporting to do web *design* and then using templates is necessarily particularly honest...

Templates work for many people but they're mass produced and by no means uniquie and businesses are willing to pay good money for a unique product even on the web.

What kind of chocolate product really stands out. Unlike Flashwiz I'm not a chocolate Connoisseur but I have had swiss choc that I found a little above the standards of others.
