[TYPO3-UG US] request vs sell

[Ron Hall]

Hi Simon,

> In our case, we've probably built a couple of hundred sites since 2005, I think we've only actually been asked for TYPO3 once or twice.

The only time I am asked for TYPO3 specifically is when someone already has a site running on it. Otherwise, it is simply a customer is needing a content managed site and I supply TYPO3 as the best solution.

And like you, they are not asking for other CMS's either. Unless the client is from a technical IT background they have not heard of any CMS brands and even when they have that background they normally don't know much about the options.

Thanks,
Ron Hall
