Mr. Steamer:  I believe I used that same line on you a short time ago.  Are you telling me you up your charges for commerical?  I don't think so.  Maybe in your dreams.  Why do you think people get that $.01 per sq ft. for commerical. Is it because the Steamer has set the bar @ $.3 per sq ft ?Guitar

Hey, but I give it my best.  There are certain words that make me think, CHA-Ching!

"No one was avaliable on such short notice"
"I've heard that carpet protection is really expensive, but worth it.  Would you advise that I have it put on?"

and, after 6 weeks in business:

"You did our carpets last year.  I know you're always busy, but could you book us in for next week?"

So far, though, the only time I've followed up on that with a substantial monitary increase is when I hear, "I just got your number from so-and-so... she recommended I call you."

Allen

I thought you just started your business, how could she say you did her carpets last year. Unless of course you bought some one else's business.

Or maybe I'm missing something.

No, ADWA... they thought I was somebody else.  I didn't correct them, but cleaned their place.  After confirming that they were happy with the job, I left a card and promised to send them a reminder letter with a discount voucher for their next clean.

Who did they think I was?  Beats me.
