IR as a suppliment or part of a larger operation?

[Anonymous]

What are most doing, IR as the primary operation or as a suppliment to a conventional operatiion?
What type of businesses do you suppliment-if you do?
I see a lot of company adds in the states where IR is tied to a seal coating operation. Do you find-even in the states where IR is far more previlent-that it has to be a secondary operation?

I think that it depends a lot on where you are located if you could survive on a stand alone IR business. Many of us,(myself included) are from more or less rural areas that could not support such a business. We have to diversify out of necessity. In a larger metropolitan area, a person has a better chance to specialize. I don’t believe that a poll is a good indicator of preferance unless the location of the respondants is taken into consideration. I have found IR to be an excellent “stimulator” service. I have taken many jobs from compeditors by being to provide “that little extra” service.
