Don't worry about it john, I guess it was to touch of a question or you don't under stand the definition of average. Either way was not meant to be a big discussion. Nightrider, that is a good idea on the vacuum I like the way you think.

I know there will be those of you calling me all kinds of names but here is another gimmick I used to to. I would always request that the customer vaccuum their carpet to the best of their abilities, going over the carpet up to 5 times if they like...........and for doing such a great job of vaccuuming I would offer them a free gift ( usually a set of steak knives, 50 % restaurant & movie passes, or table setting accessories ) When I arrived there, guess what I was holding in my hand as I walked through the door ( and it wasn't my d**k) it was an Electrolux Vaccuum Cleaner ( $ 300.00 at that time ) brand new, and showed them just what their vaccuum missed even after 5 times of cleaning, and before the demo I passed their vaccuum 2 more times on a given area of their choice. You should see their faces when they see all the crap I still picked up with the Electrolux. BUT.......that's not what I wanted to sell them........my trick was I had a contact with an Electrolux dealer and purchased all the refurbished used ones from him at a cheap price and knowing that $ 300.00 was alot of money, I would offer them a used one for $ 150.00 and made $ 100.00.

how much on average do you charge to vacuum. Up to now i have been just telling them to vac, and most say they are cool with that.

Also....NIGHTRIDER.....WHY ARE YOU SO AFRAID TO OFFER YOUR REAL NAME? If you have soooo much business expertise....why do you hide your identity? |
