Default Get more people!

Hello! Your forum is very nice and friendly. \r\nI would never post on a coffee forum, because I am not a coffee lover. Just wanted to give one advice to make this place more lively.\r\nWhat about asking the people from other coffee companies, I mean producers, to come here and give their opinins about cofee, machines etc. They might give some kind of interviews. This could attract more attention to this forum and the store.

It would be good also if you invited coffee addicts and some people who work in cafe. They must be a good source of useful info.

You can make little booklets or something like invitation cards with the URL and short description of your forum and leave them in coffee shops and bars, so that people who are interested could take them and come to your site

Default forums are hard to get started

It takes alot of time getting a forum active, I've set up several web sites, where the owners just think they can post it there and it will just happen, I agree with the original post, you have to actively recruit other people in the biz to get involved.\r\n\r\nOn a side note, this forum is not a stand alone ap, so many that are competitors will not want to be involved since the espresso biz world is still rather paranoid about the link/involvment exchange thing. I'm working on breaking down those barriers believe me, but its' an uphill battle. Give it time, and if you have any comments, especially based upon research and is unique, by all means, I look forward to hearing about it.

\r\n\r\nWe are mostly concerned now with attracting people who are crazy about coffee. \r\n\r\nWhen we have lots of active coffee lovers posting constantly in this forum we will attract more coffee industry professionals here.
