End of an era, the end of CleanFax.

[Mikey P]

Sadly, both the magazine and the website are ending this month.

Its the virtual age my friends..



Any memories to share?

 

[Bob Pruitt]

Very difficult for a magazine to adapt to the Internet. CleanFax memories...not really...and maybe that was part of the problem.

 

[Jimmy L]

I remember being the regional cleaner of the year on the cover.

 

[Desk Jockey]

I really enjoyed reading the magazine.

I remember reading Jimmy & Marty going at it on the Cleanfax board back in the day. lol
Back when I was normal...guess I should have just stayed away from those fookers.

That idiot kept saying Procyon was nothing more than TSP.

 

[Desk Jockey]

You're still fighting him over that.

 

[Mikey P]

Do you think Jeff Cross could run a Zipper?

 

[Desk Jockey]

No way. That dude has two left feet.

 

[Cleanworks]

Do you think Jeff Cross could run a Zipper?

Up and down or across a carpet?

 

[Chris Howell]

Yes! We were featured on the cover of the January 2016 issue under "2016 CARPET CLEANING INDUSTRY LEADERS REVIEW"

http://www.cleanfax.com/magazine-archives/2016-carpet-cleaning-leaders-review/

It was truly an honor to be featured along with some other fine professionals.

 

[Mikey P]

If I pay him.as much as I do Chavez to post here, he could do quite well

 

[hogjowl]

You're not getting your money's worth.

Not surprised with the print version of course but a little with the website. They must have a boatload of email subscribers.
Guess they should have hired fred to do their seo ~

Now what?

 

[Jimmy L]

But Cross lerned everything he knows from me.

 

[steamron]

My opinion would be, I think most cleaners take the cell phones with them when they use the toilet, not a magazine.

 

[Lee Stockwell]

Jeff bought them an extra few years I'm sure.

Cleanfax is where the carpet cleaner fraternity first met the Internet. Kudos to John Downey for being such a cantankerous visionary!

 

[JeffCross]

OK, guys, two things:

1. I can run a Zipper. Give me a break!
2. I bought a bunch of Cleanfax personalized pens. Darn it!

Seriously, yes the competition in print is tough. It's all about Internet now. I blame Mikey.

 

[Desk Jockey]

Jeff is such a talent at so many things I'm sure he will land on his feet. The guy is so qualified I can think of several jobs he could walk right into. "Hello welcome to Walmart!" " Would you like fries with that?".

The dude is amazing!

Just kidding! Seriously he is a great instructor, facilitator, speaker he should be fine. If not see above!

Don't lie. Someone might ask you to prove it!

I sent you a PM with my address for the pens.

I thought they closed up 10 years ago?

Which was 5 years longer than it should have due to life support

 

[Desk Jockey]

LOL

 

[JeffCross]

Not sure about Wal Mart, but an Amazon fulfillment center just opened up near me. I think they are hiring.

Dam, I thought he was just super helpful...

 

[Mikey P]

Hey Jeff


It was a hell of a run buddy.
Take pride in that you outlasted Evan.


How many of those emails did you stash?

or are you going to pull a Wheelwright and get to the top of the IICRC and retire in style?

 

[Desk Jockey]

Uhhh they use robots

Dam, I thought he was just super helpful...

Naww I gots ta get paid!

 

[Mark Saiger]

I'm gonna miss the magazine.

I actually really enjoyed getting it in print version

My best to you Jeff.

Still looking forward to seeing you around the conventions (I hope)

 

[Lee Stockwell]

I do wish I'd have filled out the info card in the last one I got, just to keep getting mail.

I found it a little too slick for the shitter but it wasn't a bad read. I told jeff many times we needed neked gurls for center folds but he never listened to me.

I do believe that just might have saved the print magazine.

Looks like Jon Don will get his talents, via Totally Booked University presentations at several of their locations. Certain to be a great experience.
