Nothing macho about this. He is a HACK. Pure and simple. A guy that knows a lot KNOWS you don't do good in this business by GUARANTEEING you will underbid ANY WRITTEN QUOTE by 15%.

I don't like the guy...and  never will. The only reason I got on this board is to do some research into a piece of equipment I am looking to buy.

The only thing I see is thousands of BASH Ken Harris threads. Trust me, I doubt this board will be a regular thing for me.

Just trying to get some info..

By the way...we know that Ken has issues with integrity...which is too bad because he is actually one of the smartest guys to EVER frequent any cleaning BB.

His knowledge is so far above and beyond a guy like Mikey P. and Greenie is is amazing.

Ken, clean up your act.

LOL! You might think differently if you said that sh*t to my face...but of course you Canadians don't have the courage to do much.

I could care less who likes me and who doesn't . It is funny that many guys say I am not liked, but EVERYDAY my email box has guys trying to get me back on the boards!! In fact a year ago I had two board operators BEG me basically to come back. LOL. Ya, I am hated.

I get regular emails from some of the leading experts in the industry....and I am not talking about wannabees like Mikey P. or the American guy that thinks he is KING of glides. I am talking about real experts. Guys that do NOT have an agenda.

I hold nothing back. When I got into this business I was sold a line of crap a mile  long. I learned the tough way that the BB's are full of shills and salesmen.

I am neither. I have been around the block a time or two. I know what works and what doesn't.

One area I agree with NR about is that fact that cleaning is not that difficult. It is not rocket science. It is funny to see some of the CRAP that is said on these BB's. Once you figure out how the money flows and who is connected to who....you will soon see what is really going on.

And do you think for a second having a guy on the hotseat is going to do you much good!!! LMAO!

I mean, really, how many times can you yap about glides, kunkle valves, cfm, psi, and stuff like that? Many of these so called experts don't know anything more than you or I, they just try to get you to believe that.

And many people on these boards are either selling or helping their buddies sell. Pure and simple.

You hear guys talk about if you buy something less expensive it means it is of less quality and doesn't work as well. Are you fricking kidding me!!!

Look at the glide deal. Many, and one company in particular, want you to believe that glides are worth $200 a pop. Ya, sure they are a good product...but other glides far far far less work just as well and in some cases BETTER.  But they don't want to hear that!! Hmmm. Wonder why. Maybe because it hurts their sales.

Yep. I think that could be it.

So you can love me ( I hope  not), hate me, or just don't give a damn. But you will get my HONEST opinion EVERY single time. Period. That is my only agenda.

I have much respect for a number of guys in this industry....guys like Ed Valentine. Larry Cobb and a couple of others.

The rest...they will try to convince you that you need  a Whoretex to be a good cleaner or that you need a 27 step cleaning process to deliver great results.

Ahhh, no you don't.

Then there are guys here that think offering 15% LOWER than the lowest written quote a clients gets is good marketing. Are you f'ing kidding me.

And as far as Ken Harris. I truly hate to see the crap  he takes...but it looks like much of it is deserved and that is sad. Because Ken Harris is an extremely bright guy. Very very smart. I can't tell you why he is having the issues he has. My dealings with Ken have been outstanding. And that is the truth.

 Ken Harris is almost directly responsible for most of us knowing about glides. He is the one that really got the glide issues going. Then another guys comes along and tries to take credit for it...but the only thing this guy did was improve the manufacturing process and apparently offer better service, which is important.

But Ken Harris knows his stuff. Ken you need to get your fricken act together. Really you do. Because as far as some of the so called experts....you have them beat by a mile in brain power and knowledge. But that is not the only thing it takes to make it.

Ok, now I am done. Take your shots at me. Not one person on this earth can hold up to people attacking them as well as I can....so don't even waste your time.

If you have a question on something...I will try to help you when I am here (which will not be often). If I can't answer the question I will put you in the right direction to find someone that can.

You will get ONLY the real straight stuff from me. None of the other ass kissing  you see on Mikeysboard, ICS, or even CCSOP. Cleanfax doesn't count....do they!? LOL.

My first bit of advice is to look into ALL of the glides. Price them out. Try them. You might be real surprised at the results...and you might be happy you saved a nice little chunk of change.

Also, get some bigger hose from the truckmount to the door. You will be happy you did.

DevilDog

P.S.- And by the way...I am on EVERY BB EVERY single day that I choose to be on them. Apparently these gals think they can get rid of me by using NORMAL standards. But normal standards have  NEVER stopped me. LOL. I just don't care to be on more than once or twice a week anymore. My cleaning business and restaurant keep me pretty busy. The CRAP I see on a couple of the boards is AMAZING. These guys just like to get in a circle jerk and have their fun.

LOL! Yep. That is a certified ToddFACT!!!!!

I said a lot for people that can comprehend something.

Of course when you only cater to slow people, people that have NO education, and NO money...I can see where it might be hard to understand that giving a client a quote for 15% LESS than the next lowest quote is a good idea.

I am off....and for those that know me...I will be getting off also. Don't be a hater.

Do you want pics? Well, I can't do that because some of you will surely see that you are lacking in the lady area also.

Maybe I will talk at YOU on Monday.

Till then, get the vaseline out and enjoy yourselves.

Nightrider, Do you still have any involvement in the carpet cleaning business, didn't you tell us that you are no longer in the business and are owning and running a restaurant? Just wondering...
