Wanted: Independant technical consultants to form a co-operative in Vancovuer, 
BC

If you are a technical consultant, systems engineer, computer geek, etc. and 
currently operate your own small business and are interested in forming a 
co-op, please read on.

Myself and a colleague own our own consulting companies. We each specialize in 
a particular field of computing ie. Networks, automation, telecommunications, 
etc. We're considering starting a co-op of similar individuals who are looking 
to increase their business, while still maintaining their business identity.

The idea is to share in all aspects of business including income and expenses 
and create a network of service oriented, honest, reliable, entrepreneurial, 
consultants.

We would also refer business to one another if that business does not fall 
under your particular skill, but you still want to service that client. i.e. 
If I had an existing client that wanted UNIX advice, since I know very little 
about UNIX, but want to keep that client, I'd refer that particular job to 
someone witihin the co-op, thereby pleasing and keeping the client and making 
money. If this sounds familiar, its because it is very much like a 
sub-contracting relationship, except in a co-op, we all own and share equally 
in it.

If you'd like more info, please email me. If there is enough interest, we're 
going to hold a meeting and see what we can come up with. Clearly, we don't 
have all the answers or ideas, that's why I'm posting this. Even of you're not 
interested, but have experience with something similar, good or bad, please 
let me know.

Regards,


Todd
