thank u for sharing. anyone else?

what do u think I'm doing here!!?? 

if i get insurance will it cover?

 

How many years, or better still how many carpets have you actually cleaned, mention if they were residental or commercial. As far as your questions go, it seems that you are using carpet cleaning forums to aquire your experience, RATHER THAN DOING THE ACTUAL WORK. Theory is only as good as the author who wrote it .

NR do u do residential? what do u use for pretreatment?

thanks in advance

 

If your experience is below par, stay away from residential and concentrate on commercial.

what makes it different if i fill all the fields for information!!  I dont understand ur point unless u think i wil compete u in ur area which is f**king selfish and I dont even live in Canada!!!! As i stated I`m brand new so I needed some information. about experience "if u learn from others mistake its smart, if u learn from ur  mistake its stupid, if u repeat the mistake its dumb" let me have to tell u that if u dont want to help newbies thats fine just shut the f**k up and dont replay. I dont want to read ur crying out. I dont even think u have valuable experience for us. so do me a favor stop crying and dont share ur information. I guess u born to be carpet cleaner and u find out everything yourself.

first of all, i asked u not to post since u here not for helping. second, this forum not for argument its for exchange knowledge(i`m assuming). I will make the decision either I will do it or not so once i decide its me. I dont blame others. I have processed others information and experience already. what I`m doing here is gathering experience and information from people who do it everyday. I dont need some book that written by some marketing professor. people who do it have most updated and working methods. then I will use my brain as u mentioned to use it for my specific situation.if I were weak person I would not buy equipment without much experience. it could be stupid but i would not say its weak. I have started my business already. i wanted to be more successful and I want to fulfill to my promises to costumer that i will remove all spots and a carpet looks and smells like new. world has been changing, people understands now importance of sharing. google it u will find so many information. there r so many open source website u can use good free programs. everything is not money anymore. community and people helping each other unlike u being selfish and negative. u told me about wool carpet and warned me (maybe discouraged). then I will ask for information u telling me I`m weak because I ask. also what makes it difference if I had accent or not!!!

Again please dont post unless u sharing for good. I`m not here for arguing.

we've posted this stuff a million times over the years, if you look i'm sure you will find what you need to know.

don't build your business off forum post because most of it is bullsh*t

It really depends on the type of carpet you're working with, and the stains you need to clean out.  Some types of carpet need you to use tougher cleaning materials, others you need to be delicate with.  I would suggest checking out some carpet tips online to figure out what works best for your carpet.

1. Inspection (Written) Given to Homeowner for approval

2. Vacuum

3. Pre - Treatment

4. Agitation

5. Truck Mounted Steam Cleaning

6. Grooming

7. Post Inspections

Sometimes deoderizer and carpet protector are added.

My husband actually does 95% of the jobs, so I can't really help on that end of the cleaning field. HOWEVER, I can help you with your web site.

I built our web site

http://www.speedysteamer.net/ - Speedy Steamer from scratch.

I hope you don't mind but I am going to break your web site down.

How are you using the web site? Is it listed on business cards, and or discussion boards? If so that's fine, however if you're using your web site as a base for adverticement you're going to need to add meta tags for description and keywords.

Next your Page needs an appropriate title in the tags. Carpet Cleaning as a title isn't saying much since there are millions of carpet cleaners.

Your call to action is a good start to your page. You're going to want to have a phone number located somewhere on the first page. Big and bold.

 

Try to find a video that is a bit shorter.

 

That's it for now.
