no pre-vacuuming, drag wand HWE, no protector and a warning not to place furnishings on carpet for 48 hours a fair price?

a candy bar was about 25 cents in the eighties. It is about 75 cents now. Milk was about $1.00 a gallon and now it is 2.

that makes it very vague, wide open to "opinion", and almost impossible to come up with any std.
Ron Werner said:The best advertisement, which would then help every good cleaner, would be to suggest getting a referral.
That would be a great way to eliminate the B&S and hack companies that make their living impersonating a professional which charging way more than 60cents/sf by the end of the job and still don't leave a happy customer.
Ron Werner said:If the goal is just to make it look clean, hec, what do we need with TM's when this can be accomplished far more effectively and profitably with pads and encap?
Ron Werner said:you put way too much stock in defining someone's work by online reviews
you DO realize that not everyone is online savy
Ron Werner said:but if the customer is "happy" with the change in appearance from just spray n wipe, esp considering they won't have any reference point to say it could be "cleaner", ie they won't know any different, why shoot for "cleaner" with a TM.
Its the same argument to improve steam cleaning by prevacuuming, ie why bother when you can't "see" any difference.
would you charge 60cents for spray'n wipe?
