Q1. What do I need to send to be on Artisan Anglais?
We ask you to read the Terms and
Conditions and then send us the details on the advertising submission form. If you
are based in the UK and only have a
UK number, you need to provide that and also be aware that if you are
based here in France, the UK number may not be sufficient and if you are based in
England but most of your work is here in France, then it's possible that you
aren't working legally here, in which case we may be unable to accept your advert. If you are in the process of registering in
France, please tell us which office and if the Siret number is 'en cours', we
will put that on the site.Q2. How do I send you a graphic or photo?
Firstly, please do not embed photos or graphics in your documents.
Please send us your photos or
logo by Email or if you already have an advert and want to change your
graphics or add a photo, make sure it
is a gif or jpeg if possible and we will compress it if needed. If the graphic is
already on your computer, attach it to an Email. To do this, identify where
the image is - downloaded pictures normally save to My Pictures in the My
Documents folder on your computer. In the new Email, select Insert or
Attach from the toolbar at the top of the screen, select File and wait for the
Insert File box to appear. Scroll through the directories until you find the
photo, changing directories to get to it. Click on the graphic or photo, select Insert and it will
automatically attach itself to the Email. Make sure you tell us which advert
the graphic is for - your name, area and trade will be sufficient.
Q3. What if I want to make changes
to my advert?
All
changes and additions are free of charge, just send the information and
graphics by email, telling us your name, trade and department
Q4. I'm not registered
but would like to go on your site to be found by customers
If you
are not registered and have no intention of registering, we cannot accept
your advert on either Artisan Anglais or Artisan Anglais. Customers need to know
that you are working legally, not just for the quality of work, the insurance
issue and the lower rate of TVA, but because it is a serious offence in France
to be working 'on the black' and the artisan working illegally AND the
customer are punished for it. The new regulations introduced in January 2004
also mean that customers cannot claim for the cost of your work against
Capital Gains Tax if you are not registered. We always check Siret numbers and
refuse anyone who isn't legally registered unless they are in the process of
registering and can show us temporary documentation.
Q5. What if I
don't have a credit card or don't want to use one?
Just submit your advert in the usual way
and when you have submitted it, you will be directed to the Artisan Anglais
Paypal payment page.
Q6. Whatever I
do, I can't get the advertising page to work - either I can't see it or it
won't work. How am I going to get my advert onto the website?
There have been quite a few problems with
the FireFox browser and some other older browsers. If you experience this, you
can submit your details manually by clicking
HERE
However, if you are on a dial-up modem, you may need to give the page
time to load.
Q7. How
do I contact you?
All our contact phone numbers, emails and address
here
Q8. OK, so I have
decided to register at the Chambres de Metiers - how do I do it?
Your first step is to find out where your Chambres de Metiers is. There is a list on this website - click
here
to
access the page. They will guide you through the process.
