Hi, I am a new guy to the cc game and wanted to know just how much cash you can make cleaning carpets. In my short exposure to this biz I think that one cluld make a pretty large income. I currently use the awsome rotovac, I have two websites that are optimized doing my marketing, and only target the middle to upper class homes. Could someone tell me their sucess for more inspriation? Is 250,000 a year possible? ------------- http://mjzivko.tripod.com - Illinois Carpet Cleaning - Cleaner A trusted Lake County, Illinois Carpet Cleaner Company http://www.Illinois-carpet-cleaning.com - http://www.Illinois-carpet-cleaning.com |

Stay away fro Cho Paulish and some of the others.His bull$it is, unless you dance to his music, you're not an "ethical" cleaner.Him and Howard Partidge (using the same shill ) claim $265,000 from ONE truck. If you e-mail me I can point you to some quality help for marketing and help you avoid the less than ethical. ------------- Certified to be certifiable. |

If you have the drive to make $250,000 a year then you work around the clock with no reagrd to the calander. THe goal is to make money while you are sleeping. The journey man is right 250000 a year is possible with the a Professional Code of Ethics. Say NO to the "bait and switch" |

Well think about this: 3 crews each make 200 a day(on the low side) mon to fri thats 1000 a week per crew crew 1 4000/month ; ; 48,000 2 4000/month ; ; 48,000 3 4000/month ; ; 48,000 &nbs p; &nbs p; &nbs p; &nbs p; 14 4,000 per year or less(slow times) don't forget you have to pay your people and all the ad costs and there is slow times of the year jan, feb, march..... its a hard company to run...... ------------- mike |

There is a LOT more money to be made in tile and stone cleaning/sealing/restoration than carpet cleaning.

My first boss/ good friend is doing it. he owns 7 vans. He sends out 4 vans daily with a tech and a helper. Gross per month is anywhere from 45,000 - 65,000 techs get 30% - 35% sales(pays for own gas)/helpers get 10%- 15% so anything is possible once you get your name out there i guess. Thats how big i want to be doing it. Its all in how you want to handle business to. Eather you got a carpet cleaner who can do sales or you have a salesman who cleans carpets. |

You can dramatically increase your income if you know how to maximize
your back-end. For example, I repair carpet as a speciallity but I also
market high end vacuums. Every 3 or so repairs I do, I make an extra
$200.00 or so on a vacuum. Also, I refer carpet cleaning to a
carpet company and New Carpet and floors to another company. I get a
good commission from each of them. I hope this helps you.
