Lately I have took notice to some new faces around town on the cleaning scene. I have been in business about 6 and a half years and am only 30 so I am considered to be one of the new kids on the block myself. I have a pretty good size chunk of my mrket share in my area ..... about 120k peoplebetween my city and rural areas outside, I think there are about 20-25 cleaners between janitorial , wdr, and carpet cleaners. I have hada couple of my regular commercial accounts tell me some new faces came by and droppes cards off. I even had a local pizza hut tell me one dipshit hack wrote them and estimate to clean all the carpet for $30! I also took a peak in the new phone book that just came out and my competitors are lookin pretty desperate. One of the chem lie guys had a coupon for a free sofa cleaning with the purchase of 4 rooms of carpet. Seems a bit genorous in my opinion. I am always carefull doing pricepoint advertising because if done wrong you atract the bottom feeders and devalue your work in tandum. Seems a bit more competitve this summer , looks like there are a few more clowns than usual bellying up to the dinner table.
