Hello Everyone, I recently purchased a carpet cleaning franchise in Dublin Ireland, and I am looking for help with marketing the business. I put out 20000 leaflets but did not get a great response, just barely covered the cost of printing and delivery. Any ideas on inexpensive advertising and marketing. Any help would be great. Thanks !

Wow, lots of questions. I will try to answer them in order-
1. Since Jan of this year.
2. I'm not, totally, although the more I do it, the better I get at it.
3. Both, although more soil= more work.
4. 70% rayon and 30% polyfiber blend, and I use a dirt napper a lot of the time to help lift the piles of heavily matted down carpet.
5. My opinion is ever changing, and I am looking for objective information on whatever methods can serve my customers best.
6. I am particularly interested in it.
7. As long as it takes to get the job done. I would say on average 1000 including pre vacuum and pile grooming.
8. That's all I do.
9. Again, depends on how soiled. I would say on average 4-5.
10. I advertise "no steam," so no.
11. That's great, I enjoy the discourse:)

PS. See #5.

WHEW:)

Welcome BonnetMan,  Clap
 
Give us the Scoop...
  1. How long have you been a bonnet man?
  2. Why are you sold on it?
  3. Do you clean extremely soiled carpet or moderate?
  4. Are your bonnets synthetic or cotton? There is a big difference in cleaning quality.
  5. What's your opinion?
  6. Have you ever tried oscillation?
  7. How many sq. ft. per hour?
  8. Do you clean residential?
  9. How many bonnets would you use to clean 1000 sq. ft.?
  10. Do people ask if you will steam clean as opposed to bonnet?
  11. You did not think we were going to make you work so hard but we are awaiting your answers.
P.S.
Have you ever considered other cleaning systems?
 
Have you ever considered using a bonnet that is make from the new amazing microfibers? We hear if its mixed with cotton fibers it is awesome for residential.

Merry Christmas

I recently started a carpet cleaning company in New Mexico, and I found this site while browsing. I must say, there is a ton of great information on here. I could easily have hours pass by while reading the forums. I'm sure everyone can guess my cleaning method from my name. I look forward to adding everyones input here to the development of my carpet cleaning skills.]]> Wed, 20 Dec 2006 15:14:26 +0000 https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3299&PID=78530&title=hello-everyone#78530
