I'm sure most have said "Scotchgard should be reapplied after each cleaning" if nothing else

Everyday is Saturday.
I don’t have the courage to upsell from 9.99 t0 250 or 300 something dollars in person or even over the phone.
Who teaches these people how to do this?
I don’t have a problem with guys selling protector at all.

It sounds like Cole taught at least one of them. 
"Berber has to be dry cleaned"

Did you feel bad doing it?
How long did it take to get used to doing it daily?
Did you believe the bs you told the customer?

It's also how I started. Over 30 years ago, it was $39.95 for a living room, attached dining area and hall. It was a scam then and still is now. We were expected to sell at least $60 more on every job. We were much better trained than those slobs in the video. You could not say no to us.

He is probably actually talking about another Jimmy....
I recently read a “technical services newsletter” written by Beaulieu Of America that claimed that “the effectiveness of fluorochemicals is reduced by approximately 30 % with each scheduled cleaning.” In addition to the already diminished effectiveness of the protector due to day to day foot abrasion I have to agree with the short lady. The protector should be applied after each cleaning.

I obviously hate to hear that but just like O/O’ers each franchise is its own business entity, and thus is ran as the owner see’s fit. I have no doubt that I have techs that have done this and maybe even still are. But it’s my job to try to identify those individuals, set the ethical standards and instill my values on them..., if it doesn’t take, send them packing with s referral letter to ZeroRez

Dunno, does our Jimmy have a clean record?

More current testing has shown ~17% is removed with a TM extraction. Wear is another factor with water-based fluorochemicals since they leave a brittle coating. Solvent-based fluorochemicals are better in both respects, since they are not brittle coatings. . .

Yep, me also. Basically learned how not to do things. Do everything the opposite we should be okay,
No, I couldn't lie to people. So I made no money.

Did you feel bad doing it? no, I saw how not to do it when I was trained, much like the assholes in the video and found a way to sell pre-scrubbing with a 175 I bought while still doing a good enough job on light soil areas if they didn't want to spend more. I never ever told them that the base price was worthless.
How long did it take to get used to doing it daily? much like prison sex, it took a week or so to get use to it.
Did you believe the bs you told the customer? Sure, I was 19 and didn't know any better. It's not like Sam ever sat me down and lectured me on the science of it all.

So you never heard one of my the original nylon Filiment was round and abrasion caused light refraction to cause fiber to appear darker?
So they invented a more
Curved fiber image to reflect light!
Aka soil hiding characteristic!
Anso 4 with the 4 holes drilled through the center of the fiber was the best for reflecting light!
Not ringing a bell???
Guess you were gone by then sorry!
