I've seen some asinine attempts to create winter cash flow but this takes the cake.



He must be from Atlanta.

Damn, I thought this would be another thread about me.

I figured I'd better say it before someone else did. :|

 

[FB7777]

and I see he's a *** moderator


Maybe they can take a collection and send this guy to Howard's ROundtable


by last calculation, I think the Lifetime value of a customer is slightly north of 2 Gs

 

[Brian R]

Oh and the lifetime cleaning idea....not liking it.

I really wouldn't like it if I was custy..too risky.


If he goes out of business, do you really think he will have the money to give back to them?
Hell to the no.

 

[FB7777]

in a perfect scenario, it would be a phenomenal deal for the customer $500 cleaning/ year for life!

 

[Walt]

There has to be some serious legal issues here.

That's what I always tell my friends. Any part they order, it's lifetime guarentee only applies to how long said business stays in business. People think of Craftmans tools when they hear lifetime guarentee.

He must have learned that offer on his Patented Ride Along week.

I'm cutting a check in ADVANCE for $2,000 worth of cleaning... uhhh yea I think I'm gonna want something in writing :roll:

he's been in biz a whole 4+ years... he's practically a founding father of the cleaning industry

 

[Jim Martin]

talk about a slow painful death...........

Amazing!

 

[LeeCory]

Whoever this guy is sounds like he is already almost out of business and seriously hurting for cashflow. This is a terrible risk to be taken by any customer since if he can't find anybody to take him up on the offer he will be close soon. And since he is probably bankrupt his contract in writing won't be worth the paper its written on.

Maybe he is thinking it would be like gift cards and nobody would use them... lol Pure profit.

This guy is so dumb he shouldn't be trusted with a truckmount, cause he is the type that runs it in a closed garage.

[Scott S.]

his prices are probably so high that you max out your carpet cleaning in 2 rooms.. (for the 500 a year credit)

does that mean that in 6 years a commercial job is outa cash? i think so..

 

[daniel@procarpet]

Ok how the heck is he pulling this off. I see he has a 4 jet wand with a glide and no extenders. I had to use long jet extenders with mine and 95 jets on the outside because the short extenders resulted in overspray. By the way the long extenders a great. The short ones shreek so loud I had a customer say if I had to do that all day I would wear some hearing plugs. I ditched them later that day.

$500.00 a year at .60 sf and furniture moving is not in the contract and must be paid at time of service. :shock:

I would love to see this contract and what kind of extra charges it has.

 

[Ryan]

You think this is a good deal, I know where you can get free glides for life just by buying a wand! Ivebeensold :shock:

 

[alazo1]

Like the title of the post what fools do they think people are? Maybe it works where he's from but not here. I'd rather go out of business then stoop this low. And I'm an x CD guy

Well, I guess it's a good deal considering he's using the most powerful steam cleaning equipment in the world :shock:

What type of equipment/methods do you use?
We use a Prochem 25hp "Peak" truckmounted system. It literally blows the socks off anything any of our local competitors use. Our truckmount delivers up to 230degrees water and extracts with over 405 CFM. It is the most powerful steam cleaning equipment in the world.

Wow he made it to the 12 grade. Some of those pictures look like space camp George. Maybe they're brothers
