Nightrider, you don't have that Marketing Master under your name for nothing, thats ingenious except for one thing, I have to show a demo and they will probably chose the truckmount for the demo becaue there will be customers there at that time so they are going to want me in and out as fast as possible with the least amount of noise and distraction... AND I DON'T OWN A TRUCKMOUNT Cry.......YET.
I got money in the bank, but E on the tank.

I have the opportunity to book Denny's for a demo cleaning with a very good chance of them using me for the new cleaning guy. There are few problems though:

1) Denny's stays open 24 hours a day 7 days a week and I would have to do my demo while people are in the restaurant and I have a portable, so its going to be in the building and very loud which is going to disrupt people. Dead
 
2) The manager said I am required to have insurance up to 1 million dollars.  I currently have no insurance (I'm having a very hard time finding coverage for a carpet business). Dead
 
P.S. - The manager told me they can shut down the restaurant for 4 hours in order for me to clean IF they decided to go with my services and they would need a month in advance to prepare for the 4 hour shutdown, so I guess thats alright, but what would you do in this situation? Confused
i wouldnt do it your going to look like a big loser with your lil portable, and its probably a serious liability, they will probably hire a professional anyways... just my opinion though..Clap

what was wrong with what I said??? If you want the job...you got to do what the customer wants.

Lots of times I do what I want...and tell them to find another cleaner

but if you need the cash...you can bend a little

You dont need 1M insurance.. Your cleaning the carpet not re-modeling the building or doing a re-roof or want to buy the place.. 
 
Pass on it.. They dont pay right away.. You want to wait 30-90 days? Not me..
 
When the Mex's see you with that portable they will tell there boss.. I can do that for you cheaper..
