Wasn't that the usual ad where they will leave with about $200 bucks. The same negative advertising the big companies use.Guitar

It has been going on longer than I can remember, don't even give it a second glance anymore. I just look at it and think he will mess up and we will get called to come to the rescue.  Another new customer for us!

Steamer,

The cheapest price only draws the cheapest clients. Price is only one small slice of the pie, just like you can focus more on certain aspects of the cleaning pie (CHAT: chemistry, heat, aggitation, time) to make up for other areas you lack in, you can do the same with the "marketing/service" pie.

Service business pie:

  - Customer service

  - Image

  - Price

  - Quality

  - Scope of services/products

  -Trustworthiness

If you are weak on one aspect, focus more on another...those guys are focusing on the price aspect, you just need to focus more on the other aspects of the pie.

Take care,

Lisa

I never bother reading what prices the  competition is charging, it has NOTHING to do with me or my customers so it is irrevelant.
