Judging from the real low pre paid head count I'm hearing, most in this industry have had enough of the motivational speakers and biz coach infomercials.
The trade show is fun but form most not worth the cost of the trip out.
I know a little about putting on a Cleaning event and I would suggest to the powers that be to have WAY more hands on stuff going on.
-Repair/Re Stretch equipment in rooms set up with loose/damaged carpet with pros there to guide you along.
- I'm sure it would not be hard to find a few off strip hotels willing to get free carpet cleaning in exchange for some play time. Lets see all the different machines and methods at work on real dirt.
-Color Sealing demonstrations. Have loads of tile and grout installed on cheap card tables for the audience to practice on.
-I'm sure Jasper could convince the Hilton to donate some mattresses to show us how to de-Mite them.
-A long hose run contest for the TM manufacturers.
-Dunk tank filled with Ultra Pack with the program directors for this years event ready to go.
-Crayola table for the kiddies and those who work for homes that have Latino house keepers.
-Speed cleaning competitions, each contestant gets 100 feet of equally filthy carpet to use what ever method or materials he choose (that are donated by the attending manufactures) to win cool prizes. Have the contest 3 times a day with ten cleaners participating each time. How hard could it be to set up? Way cheaper then hiring Zig Ziglers to speak for five minutes that's for sure..
- Your ideas?
