John,

I am looking forward to it as well, but right now getting my first few sales under my belt has to be my priority. I have gone broke and then some putting this together over the last few years and need to recoup some of that as soon as possible.

Currently, I have several large companiens showing a great amount of interest and am very busy trying to get one of them to close. I am very interested in your system however. If for no other reason, to give those that need a VLM system the right one.

While I most likely will remain a HWE guy myself, I have been more than impressed with OP cleaning as the best VLM method available and want to be able to offer that in the future.

We seem to be quickly going the way of Dell Computer in that we will most likely be building systems customized for the customer based around our patent pending continuous flow concept. I now have a hand-carriable waste tank with pump-out that gets 149" of water lift on one cord and 249" on two.

I'm in Lexington a lot however and I will try to at least set up that Alltel building I was telling you about. I don't know of any dirtier carpet than that one and will at least try to get an opportunity to do a demonstration there soon.

Send me your number again, either on this board or through PM or my e-mail at van@cleantileandcarpet.com

Look forward to meeting with you soon. Be blessed.

In His Grip of Grace,

Van

Still waiting to go clean some nasty carpet, hopefully we can work on that one in Lex that is giving problems.

 

I prefer getting into DIFFICULT cleaning projects, otherwise you won't know for sure whether the system works as advertised.

wow!!!

vandene,

Since starting this topic you have generated many views and replies. Not bad for less than one week. You keep this up and you may get the slot machine prize.

Who knows, you may become the new doug of the board.

P.S.
I will answer your email next week as it requires some thought on my part.

Mr. Steamers right about his example of Wal-Mart. And, likewise, Ted is correct about this industry too.

I have learned ;however, that there is a way of protecting oneself against these kinds of situations.

I have never forgotten that "you cannot be everything to everyone" and you cannot be their banker either. Simple logic.

 

Good Fortune to all;

I hate to say it TED but that's business everywhere... not just this industry, it's every industry...

I've done some work for Wal-Mart they took forever to pay 120 days...never again

vandene,

Welcome to the world of attempting to sell into the carpet cleaning industry. You are only getting started and already you are experiencing many frustrating posters. You are on the right track to deal with Wal-Mart.

When you receive a cheque from many carpet cleaners it is rubber. ( I assume you and myself have first hand experience). So instead of looking forward to an $800.00 rubber cheque it is best you wait for an $80,000.00 cheque from Wal-Mart. Not to say I don't have many wonderful paying customers. But our industry in general is noted for poor and slow payment.

And that's just the way it is.

Just gives me somebody else to pray for. Jesus died for the pagans too. Hopefully, he will accept the precious free gift of His grace and mercy before it it too late. It took me 36 years so I know what it is like to live stupid and carnal as well.

I do hope you are kind to someone however Mr. Bjorn, living life bitter is not living. I will continue to keep you in my prayers.

I have not really found what I was looking for on this board and am becoming much too busy to banter about  at this time. I appreciate you all for your contributions and will use this resource from time to time, but I think it is better for me to focus on my original intent and not focus so much on supplying the janitorial and carpet cleaning business at this time.

I have already left my contact information for those that would like to know more about the different units and configurations I have available including my economy model Bjorn loves so much.

God bless you all and if you don't know Him, I can assure you He is real and loves you very much. Now that is something I would be more than happy to talk about.

Be blessed.        &nbs p;         &nbs p;      Van

I guess you could teach him to spin some dirt around.

At least he put some parts together

Tap water shope vac pump out


any way superglide has a NEW PAD system coming out

Your days of spinning dirt are going the way of the Raptor


Remember Kens truck mount



You could dress that shop vac up with some eyes clowns nose big smile and call it KO KO

Van don't let Bjorn get under your skin, lets get together and clean some nasty carpet and see what you got, the industry is ALWAYS looking for a better mousetrap.

Vandene,

Do not take things so literally, especially when they are coming from Bjorn.  He likes to stir the pot and get under your skin.  I like your vision and attitude.  Keep up the good work.

Up here in Canada the carpet cleaning industry is a bit different.  The average cleaner does not get as much per square foot as an equivalent cleaner in the US and home owners are too cheap to spend even $700 US ($900)  Candadian for a home unit.  Who knows though,  you might just change all that.

I'm here to clean up your mess
