Interview with Vincent Sapp 12-22-06

[Mikey P]

First and foremost, treat our guest like you would like to be treated when it's YOUR turn on the Hot seat.


Vince thanks for doing this. For a Bane owner, you're a class act.

My first question for you would be how did you come to find the Boards and where would you be today with out them?

 

[vincent]

I was surfing on the net one night trying to find carpet cleaning info. That led me to the ics board, then the blue b and so forth.

I would be so far behind without finding these boards and the great people, its not even funny.

 

[Guest]

What does your wife think of you for being a carpet cleaning extraordinaire?

 

[vincent]

That's a great question Chad.

She no has problem with what I am doing. She knows I am happy and truly enjoy the work.

 

[Jimmy L]

How did you decide to get into this business?

 

[vincent]

I always wanted to own a business and the opportunity presented itself.

 

[Guest]

How is it being a part of the Bane family?

 

[brzelt]

What has been the worst thing about owning your own biz?

 

[vincent]

Chad

No matter what I do, my wife says its like xmas everyday with me.

 

[Guest]

What is the economy like in St Louie?

 

[brzelt]

What are your goals for 07'?

 

[Jimmy L]

Did you know I was sitting on the crapper when I phoned you yesterday?

 

[Goldenboy]

I got your private message about Brevik's Electromount is it really a piece of shit?

Waldo

 

[vincent]

Bruce,
The worst thing would be the hills & valleys of making money. Its slow then busy. I do a bunch of commerical, but at the same time do little residential.

So when the big money comes in, it seems to go away quickly. As I learn more, this seems to be less and less.

Chad.

The bane family kicked me out.

 

[Jimmy L]

You mentioned that you have a large picture of Bill Bane on your wall.
And how did all those stains get on it?

 

[Guest]

Did it help to swallow when you were in the Bane family?

 

[brzelt]

Drink of choice? (since ya dodged the question in the bird room) :wink:

 

[vincent]

The economy seems to be holding its own for now, but last summer when gas was high, it sucked.

Yes jimmy I heard you grunting.

Waldo, I personally don't own a nordic 1, can't answer that.

I have been working on new commercial stuff all year long in 06 and hope to reap those benefits in 07

 

[brzelt]

Do you encap commercial or use the bane?

 

[Scott Rogers]

You seem to have limited experience with other cleaning units except electro mounts.

Have you ever use a medium to large gas powered cleaning unit.


If so what one?
How long did you use it for?

How did it compare to your new Electromount?

 

[Guest]

Mr. Sapp


Do you have any idea how much grief you and you dumb friends caused me?

 

[Guest]

Do you feel right using a CImex system and grinding in the dirt when you have something with more Ump in you van that could out clean a Vortex?

 

[vincent]

Drink of choice is Pepsi, then apple Smirnoff (sp)

I don't swallow and I don't have a picture of Bill Bane anymore.

 

[Scott Rogers]

You bought a established company. What level was the company at when purchased and what is the level now?

Owner operator under 100 g no employees?

Multi truck company?

Somewhere in between?

Are you profitable or breaking even?

Where do you see yourself and the company in 10 years?

 

[Guest]

WFT...


Who let in the asshole CoOpPer?

 

[Brian L]

Do you realize the Cowboys won't get past the first round in the playoffs?

And how will that affect your carpet cleaning?

 

[Guest]

You will not be issued badges for Connections next year.

 

[Blue Monarch]

Why were you such a w#$$y and go to bed so early in Vegas?

 

[Mikey P]

Alright slow down and let the poor guy answer some of those questions.

Especially Mr Cooper's.

 

[Jimmy L]

Larry you've been sticking it to carpet cleaners for along time.

While Vincent is a carpet cleaner just remember he is still just a simpleton.
