As a carpet cleaning business, it's advisable to maintain a flexible booking system that caters to both advance scheduling and last-minute requests. During peak seasons or promotional periods, we encourage customers to book several weeks ahead to ensure availability and preferred time slots. Additionally, transparent communication about your schedule and offering alternatives can contribute to customer satisfaction. Balancing flexibility and proactive scheduling allows for efficient business management while meeting customer needs. |

I try to book an appointment when requested or as close to being requested, I set up 4 jobs a day and that leaves me time to do 2 more that day when someone calls and says "I only have 2 rooms that need cleaning or my child got sick", I feel if you put a cust. off to long you stand a chance of losing him or her, and every cust you lose will cost you $100.00 to get back, maybe not in cash but in profit. |

I have been booking leather restoration jobs for Jan and Feb since August. As Padman points out, they have no choice but to wait. Just booked another one today $1,000 job to be done in late January.

danmark: I have reccommended one of my competitors before and had people say they will wait. Being in a small area little different. I told someone I am not interested in continueing cleaning their home because of various reasons and?? Most of their friends drop us because they make up some line of bull about us. At that point it takes a couple of years to set the record strait. The rollercoaster ride go around and around and up and down.

When you think about it neither of us loses that customer to possibly an
outsider, with the chance of never seeing thim again. This way we tend to keep our customers!!! And by getting along we have ordered chemical in in larger volume to save freight etc.. Sounds weird, I'm sure, but it works. What you guys have enjoyed on the forum ( talking SHOP) , we once in while enjoy in person. It's always fun to talk shop... and if you guys always keep your distance from all you competitors you don't get that opportunity. |

Steamer, of COURSE HWE can have three week waiting times, however THINK ABOUT THIS, you can call a 100 HWE guys ANYTIME, however Padders a bit harder to find, once you use them and want them you are willing to wait.
That just gets back to the niche market you don't like hearing about. |
