Forgot to mention after i finished the job and the carpet was superclean and dry in less than 30min.. she then said my price was fair... I did think it was a little low but the competition her is fierce...guys running around with portables in the hatchback of their little cars... When i first started back in the 80's i had a 10gal 2-2stage 100psi porty in a dodge colt and it all fit in the back...One time i backed up into the custy's driveway and this old lady was out doing yardwork... She come's over and says can i help you... I say I'm here to clean your carpet..she say's where's your van...I say all my equipment is right here..she looks in the back and says.. OH no... I can rent one of them...Your not cleaning my carpet...WOW!! Only happened 2 times......... |

I charge by the sq ft. One customer is shocked by how low the price is. The next looks at you like they were just gut shot. Oops, sorry that was on topic |

pick your price and stick with it and don't let your customers talk you down. there is always another customer willing to pay what you charge.

How did you comeup with your price per sq. ft.?? Is it based on your overhead or just something you pulled out of the air??
