How Much Protector Are You Selling?

[Jim Pemberton]

I'm observing some industry trends, and would appreciate some feedback to see if what I'm seeing is just a "Mid Atlantic States" thing, or if its nationwide.

I'll share what my experience has been after a few people respond to the poll and comment here.

 

[The Great Oz]

Business overall being down, we're selling less of everything. Percentage of jobs protectant is sold on is up. No change in percentage with area rugs.

I voted "about the same", but I would say it is slightly higher, but not enough of an increase to vote that option.

I'd rather not sell any, but I do sell a properly applied protector as a courtesy to my customers who request it.

 

[Cleanworks]

Not enough.

 

[Living The Dream]

We have sold significantly more and not because I'm pushing it or up selling it. People are asking for it as soon as they call. Some of it I think is from gaining bigger ticket customers that know what they want but the others I feel are youtube educated from the likes of @Mark Saiger and other youtube stars.

Are you still selling the upper end protection too? Or is that just Santa Cruz?

Once again...I lied about my loser news years resolution.

My pump up sprayer breaks and I'm too lazy to buy another one to apply it. I don't sell enough of it

I think the day I get brave enough to bring a technician with me and train him to go on a separate route... that'll be when I'll be really pushing it. To help fill in the expense for payroll
