Return people’s phone calls and respond back to their emails!!
1. I called one dive shop about training and I left my name, number with an employee and have never heard back from them.
2. Emailed another shop with some questions about a BCD they have for sale - no response whatsoever.
3. Emailed another shop about a DM training program and didn’t hear back from them for well over a month.
Just my observations from a newbie in ONE month.
