 Topic: Lowest BiddersPosted: 24/August/2006 at 11:19pm |

I had a cleaner come into my store yesterday and ask for strong, strong chemical as he was just awarded a 200,000 sq. ft. cleaning contract for a new public venue that is opening this fall in Toronto.
Looking at this guy and seeing his antiquated cleaning equipment I could only assume that he had to be the lowest bidder. This man had little knowledge and had no idea of modern, updated, healthier and safer products.
Goes to show you that the big execs who make the big decisions are too busy to think of cleaning or they simply feel that anyone with a mop, bucket and pail will be sufficient.

95% of people are overweight and don't care
72 % of Americans smoke and don't care
40 % of Americans take hard core drugs and don't care
80% of people neglect their bodies and don't care
WHY THE HELL ARE THEY GOING TO CARE WHAT YOU CLEAN THEIR FU_CKIN CARPETS WITH

Our motto is "WE ARE THE MOST EXPENSIVE, FIND OUT WHY!"
It works well in the residential market.

Thermedix, I like that marketing approach......the only problem with that would be a guy like me as your competitor and come up with a slogan....... 'LET US SHOW YOU WHY OUR LOW PRICES AND QUALITY WORKMANSHIP MAKE THE COMPETITION RUN & HIDE DURING OUR ONE TIME ANNUAL PROMOTIONAL SPECIALS " DON'T GET FOOLED INTO PAYING MORE FOR THE SAME CLEAN CARPET
