I truely can't understand how all these one man show's come on this forum and boast they're all rich, drive corvettes, own a big house, take trips, vacations, bla bla bla.

I've been in various businesses for over 30 years and as a one man show, there is no way you can make money. You make a salary...........NO MONEY. Then you suffer or get an outside job for the winter....

I want someone out there to TELL THE TRUTH, if you're making more than $ 50,000 cleaning carpets as a one man show......tell me how you're doing it and give us all a detailed description so that we all can be sucessful.

I'm new to this forum, I'm from Montreal Quebec and I have tried to do it all myself but was unable to do it all. My girlfriend helps me alot but I do not make more than 25,000 during the cleaning season. It is true I work for the winter elsewhere. NightRider where are you, who are you, what is the name of your company, maybe I know you or you know of me. Get back I would like to know

if there are really people making 50.000 or more a year. please tell me how you are doing it,please let me know, I live and work in a big city and there alot of carpets to clean, but it's hard to get the customers. Sears offered me some work and so did Home Depot, but they don't pay, they are looking for slaves. I thought the slaves were freed long ago, but it seems slavery is here to stay. they want me to clean a whole house for 40-50 dollars, i am not stupid to accept that, and they are having trouble finding people to work for them. please let me know how you are all making so much money, where am i going wrong.

I have a part time cleaner, and i have a regular job....we made 10000, profit last year....Its tough to make much money when you are doing a normal job 40 hours a week.  I am not ashamed, we operate with no debt, besides advertising....We just bought a 2000 E-150 with 100k miles on it that looks really sharp.....Hopefully putting our number on the side of that will get us some more business.  We had been working out of a 95 F-150 pickup.  We get a good amount of repeat business, but a lot of people are stuck on having truck mount cleanings, the prob is most the companies around here have sh*tty tm's that leave the carpet wet for 24 hours.....   I would appreciate any advice on methods of cleaning, advertising, hiring.....etc

There is not a lot of sh*tty truckmounts,  just a lot of sh*tty operators.  The machine is only as good as the man operating it regardless of what system you decide.
