The title pretty much sums it up. Multiple investigators, several concurrent operatives in the field at the same time and a client that wants all the answers sooner rather than later. It’s a recipe for disaster and I talked about why. Even more important, I discussed some of the options and the ways to do it right.

It’s a little bit rough because of some wind noise, but hopefully the point isn’t lost. To be successful, you need to be able to help the client communicate their needs and you need to be able to communicate those needs to your field personnel. Accurate communication both written and spoken is vital in this business.

I thought it would be interesting and fun to do a music show, so no topic here, just some vaguely PI related music.  The links are here:

• Podcast Music Network
• It’s a Crime by the Corvairs
• Big City by Luther Allison
• Secrets by Allison Crowe
• Mystery Love me by Jim Hodgson
• Murder in My Eyes by Mr Nasty
• Detective Double Bass by Lastfuture (The Curbside Investigator theme song)

Thanks everyone!  I hope you enjoy this ’special edition’ of the curbside investigator.  Let me know whatyou think.  If you like it, maybe we’ll do it again.

One of my ‘not so esteemed’ colleagues decided to post to a PI listerv his request for illegal services.  In this episode, I go off on how fools like this are destroying our industry and how we need to obtain evidence so that our clients can actually use it.  I apolgize in advance, but this one really bugged me.
