I'm doing some new advertising online and decided to throw in carpet clean and repair along with the tile and stone cleaning, which is giving me no problems since all jobs are estimated in person at first. The carpet stuff has been a clusterf&*$# with people booking jobs then inevitably cancelling with some of the lamest excuses....I decided to see what the "competition" is doing and saw some of the most disgusting lowball stuff. The scrubs that used to advertise in the Pennysaver and coupons are headling on Google in my area now. Groupon/LS and all that gargage is what it is, but it's frustrating constantly getting calls from tirekickers on Google. I feel for any of you other guys that may be dealing with this crap.
Thank god I saw this shit coming years ago and went into hard surface and sticked with my property mangement carpet cleaning accts. Residential carpet cleaning (in my area) has been taken over by sleazy used car salesmen and scam artists. I feel for anyone starting up in carpet cleaning right now, this once great industry is becoming a joke.
