Jim, Educate Us, Tell us more, we are here to learn all you can give us.

Should I have said the first manufacturer to make a consumer. operator
Safe and environmentally responsible product that works, wins.


That's a mouthful, ( ok no comments about me having a big enough
mouth to handle it!) My ears were burning.

The name of our issue is not the environment. It is health. There are many environmrentally safe products out there that meet some kind of standard. That does not mean that they are good for people.

Will DFC clean everything? probably not. Will it clean most things. Probably yes. Will you like it? I can't answer that - only testing it will tell

Jim:  That is almost word for word what you said about Ecogent??Guitar

Doug

I think this product might be even better than ECOgent. The hotter the water the better it will work.

ECOgent is all natural ingredients. (natural surfactants) DFC is surfactant free - only food ingredients. Some people will like it, some will not.

There are 2 things I'm hope you might agree with me. Almost all cleaning products made by anybody have long term health effects. Some are more dangerous than others. Marketing your services for health offers you some tremedous benefits.

Jim: Unfortunately I have to agree with pretty well everyhting you say.  I only vary off centre for debate purposes??  Like you I have been around for a while and have tried many new break threws in the cleaning industry.  Yes I do use Ecogent when possible.  I hope Don does not take this the wrong way.  I don't do the contract cleaning he does.  I certainly will give it a try.  It certainly would not be fair to you or anyone else for me to comment on something I have not tried.  Jim  I think testamonials is a waste of lable space.

Doug, The DFC105 is great for our commercial cleaning division, but lately we have been running in our truck units with some real good results. I did not like the original Ecogent product, but this one has me excited about being able to clean on the green side and not need to worry about the effects detergents can have on clients and employees.

For many years we ignored the environmental/health issues as no one was pressing us to be more responsible in this area, however, we are now seeing people being more concerned with what we are using in their homes and office buildings and this product fills the bill, I am sure we will see improvements as time and testing goes on. The one thing I know for sure I am ready to face their demands.

Detergent Free Cleaning Advertising

Most of us including myself all like to think that we can design our own advertising. Why? Because we are cheap or cannot afford to hire high powered professional advertising agencies.

You pay peanuts you get monkeys.

We obviously do not have an advertising budget the likes of Chemspec so that leaves us with our brother-in-law who works for free and maybe our own feeble minds. Most CC advertising that I see would not encourage me to give it a second look. As a home owner it would all be in the garbage.

News Flash!
Chemspec has taken a fresh new approach to their new product with their advertising dollars. Instead of producing four colored gloss pamphlets to entice you the carpet cleaner to buy Chemspec products they are actually producing professionally designed literature. Available to you in your trading area that will make potential customers thirst for you and your new, safe, green, allergy free product D.F.C.

I as one commend Chemspec for this reversal in advertising. So for those who choose to get with the program it will be beneficial to them.

Now Joe the Bathtubber can and will not out-market us. Out-price us? YES, out-market us? NEVER.

Look around. Good advertising is what makes the business world go round.

I hear Steamer is changing his advertising format. Ever since D.F.C. was introduced to the market Steamer is now calling his L.D.H. the Big Mac Special. He is also doing super-size cleaning for a dollar extra.
