Ocala, FL.— FloorBiz has always provided the most comprehensive flooring resources on the Internet. Their Forum section is proving to be the most professionally managed of all the flooring discussion boards, attracting specialists in manufacturing, installation, inspection, retail and upper management fields.
David Kern, Vice President of FloorBiz notes the reason why this is so and states, “We noticed on other discussion forums, there was certain conduct that frequently went unchecked that we would never tolerate here on FloorBiz. I was careful in monitoring the different posts and would immediately delete those which took on a derogatory or abusive tone. I took care in preserving constructive dialogue, but immediately addressed those posts not reflecting the professional standards of FloorBiz.”
He further noted how important the right choice of forum moderators is and added, “I paid close attention to the quality of the threads especially who was posting. After awhile, I got a good idea who the most knowledgeable and professional ones were and approached these to be moderators. We now have three full-time moderators who have done a great job in keeping the threads on-topic.”
Jim Ryan of Able Carpet Repair, and one of the moderators expressed gratitude for the ability to share his vast carpet experience with those interested in improving standards within the industry. He commented, “On other forums I found that I was frequently misunderstood as I expressed my own views regarding installation and repair methods. As a result, many of those sites viewed me as a nuisance. FloorBiz however, has allowed me the freedom to express myself and as a result, the interchange of ideas and different installation methods has benefitted me greatly.”
Ray Darrah, forum moderator and full time Consultant and Flooring Inspector as well as Technical Services Director for the National Inspection Service, QuestInspect.com and the Online Claims Management Business Center www.FloorReports.com adds, “Having read and watched message boards related to the flooring industry over the years I made the decision to participate with FloorBiz.com due to the professionalism of the site and the participants willingness to share ideas and experiences. Participating on a professional level gives all participants an opportunity to learn from others in the various situations, ask for advice and obtain such in real time.”
