I've been running across more and more website of carpet cleaning companies where the owner has a BIO..

Goes something like this.

I started ******** carpet cleaning because I was tired of the bait and switch operators. Other companies offering poor service.

Real is that why you got into carpet cleaning. A public service?

Some watch to much cops and listen to closely to the intros before the action starts.

Hmmm, perhaps I could write something like " I got into this business because I was sick of all the owner operators claiming to "SAVE PEOPLE FROM BAIT AND SWITCH OPERATORS" totally rip people off by charging them hundreds of dollars just to clean 2-3 rooms! " ?

Would be just as honest as theirs..........

One would think that with all these companies "devoted" to doing a much better job than the B&S companies, that the level of cleaning would be going up.
It becomes more a BS line when they are doing the same cleaning steps, just taking a little more time with it and simply being more "fair" with the pricing, ie not that its cheaper, just that they clean for what they said they would.
Going by what my clients tell me they are not so much stupid as they are disappointed with cleaners they've had and are looking for more.

Leads me to ask a question, (in another thread)

My question is do you think anybody reads a bio for carpet cleaners? they want to know that you can do the job well and without disruption to their life and home.

Do you care why your painter paints?
or the extermantor kills bugs?

Always a great day in my world. Very, very busy. The new shop is ready to open. Took a little me time last night and went to see "The Town" with a couple people who are in it.
You call me a wife, I call me a parent. I guess that is the difference between yourself and I.

"I listened to a grumpy old kermudgeon who told me I would never support a family working in restaurants so I should try carpet cleaning."

He likes to call me like once a week. He is like a stalker woman. Or a date gone bad. He does not get the hint.

Tell him not to call and he does. I don't return his call And still he won't give up.

Guess he has no one else tell tell what a star football player he was. Or how he is better than everyone else. Or what he has or what his wife is. I keep telling him I don't care.
But he keeps trying.

His phone calls are very anti productive boring and like listening to a broken record

Ohwell.
