Good People know Good People

Back in the day (before babies 4 & 5 made their appearance) I worked with a lovely Creative Director named Stephanie and a talented Art Director named Steven. They are still advertising hotshots, and in all their glorious spare time these city-apartment-living-experts have started a new site. And I think it's brilliant.

It's called the Good People Guide. And it's a place where anyone can read honest, unbiased reviews of local contractors, handymen, movers, house cleaners and on and on. Which means that you'll know just who to call when inspiration/disaster strikes your own home.

Plus. If you've had a good or bad experience hiring something out and want to share it for the benefit of all mankind, you can do that too.

Smart, right?

So much better than making a cold call from the yellow pages then crossing your fingers and saying several prayers that the person will actually show up and do what you need them to do.
