How does it sound like a small company and why not? Don't people now-a-days prefer the mom and pop companies where the owner is going to come in and clean his heart out for you as opposed to Mr. Big Time Steemer who is going to send an employee to your doorstep who could probably care less about you or your carpet?

Provide an incentive to the potential buyer.  What do they get if they buy from you?  What do they stand to lose if they don't buy?  Use a call to action by providing a expiration date to prompt them to call.  Why the special (celebrating X years in business)? 

You are going after people who have used pros before.  What is it that they probably didn't like about the last guys?  So how are you different?  What guarantees?  Dry in 2 hours?  Traffic patterns are just a memory? 
What they are looking for I believe is a great price, a cleaning miracle and a professional approach.  Start with price, let it open the door for you and they help the prospect understand how teflon kept their carpet in the great shape it is in now and how fortifying that teflon will keep it going strong.  Sell them on grooming rakes for their carpets sake (before vacuuming to lift fibers and after as a cosmetic treatment).

Sell the sizzle that is your excellence.  The words I saw would not do it for you, I honestly believe.
Are you in a high paying business or are you just a self employed low paid grunt who thinks this business provides dignity?

PURE FIBER CARPET CLEANING

ALWAYS THE BEST GUARANTEED

540-292-4578
Keeping it short and sweet - nobody has enough time to read the side of a van they are passing.  Get wordy on printed ads, not that anyone reads the whole ad anyways (more of a skim for key elements).

Key word - guaranteed.

I've always been scared of putting GUARANTEED on anything because people are so sue crazy now a days.  What if I say " ALWAYS THE BEST GUARANTEED or SATISFACTION GUARANTEED".  Then they call me back and say " you told me you were the best but I've had better and you said always the best GUARANTEED (aren't people always looking to get something for nothing?). Then what? Confused
