 From: Calvin Close
G’Day...
Have you been trying to promote your company and its products and services to the mining industry? Haven’t been too successful? Wish you could do better?
My name is Calvin Close. Yes, that is a picture of me underground at a NSW coal mine. I was the Superintendent in charge of a multimillion dollar conveyor installation.
Yes, I’ve been there - working long grueling hours when things weren’t going well, walking miles and miles along conveyor belts looking for a fault that was costing the mine thousands of dollars an hour in lost production...
I remember the times when we were down on the longwall in the middle of the night when we needed parts to get the longwall running again.
I also remember the day that we were looking for a particular type of contractor so that we could complete part of that large conveyor installation. I started with the Yellow Pages...
I called contractor after contractor, looking for someone that had worked on a mine site and understood the regulations pertaining to mining sites, their personnel and their equipment. In this case, we couldn’t get someone that needed a week to get his equipment in order, etc.
You could tell the people at the other end of the phone wanted the work...
Actually, there were many, many occasions where I needed some equipment, product or service that I had never used before. How would I find what I needed?
In these cases, using Google or any of the other search engines was even worse than using the Yellow Pages. Instead of getting a dozen companies to call, you get thousands of search results. Don’t get me wrong. I have a great understanding of how to use Google. In fact, I use Google everyday. But, using a search engine to find a company that understands the mining industry just does not make the cut!
I had just wished that there was somewhere that I could find companies that knew the mining industry, the harsh condition, the mining-specific acts and regulations, and the list goes on.
Well, guess what? There now is. We have created an online Mining Business Directory that is:
- Mining Specific - only mining companies and mining-related companies are allowed in the Directory
- Industry Wide - covers coal mining and hard-rock mining
- Australia Wide - covers companies right across Australia
- Comprehensive - there are already well over 2,200 listings, and it is growing every week
- Easy to Use - Suppliers are arranged in logical categories and sub-categories
What’s more, while a listing in the Mining Business Directory is a great way to promote your company to the mining industry, we have gone much further than that. We have developed a unique approach to promoting companies and their products and services to the mining industry that is completely unique to us.
It goes far beyond just placing an advertisement on our site or being listed in Australia’s Premier Mining Business Directory.
When you combine our desire to meet your promotional requirements with our insider knowledge of the mining industry, our unique promotional services, our flexibility and personal service, you are guaranteed to get the results you are looking for.

Talk to you soon,
P.S. I want to tell you 2 last things:
- You will NOT get some pushy sales person searching for your wallet.
- You will only get someone to discuss your requirements and make recommendations to you based on your individual needs.
