I removed the name and phone numbers and disguised the cleaner to protect the innocent. Doesn't this type of advertising have a name?
It just gives the carpet cleaning profession a black eye, doesn't it?

just thought it would be the right thing to do.

I guess Missoula is a small town.

 

[Jim Martin]

with a Vortex too..

Just because it says Vortex on it ...does not mean that's whats behind the doors......

Whaaat it looks like a typical Steam Cleaner add to me.Lots of flash low prices big promises everything on sale Free this and Free that book now and so on and so on. We all deal with this crap every day.

Innocent???

How is everyone going to call and break his balls if we don't have his number??

I can not believe how high the carpet cleaning prices are in Missoula Montana $6.95 a room? The ad I saw here yesterday outside Chicago was for $4.95 a room. For some reason the company changes its name about every year.

Fred, these guys are not your competition

The advertisement is missing 2 things

They forgot to put "IICRC Certified Cleaner" and "Best Carpet Cleaning Ever Or It's FREE"

They change the name so people that have used them before and got ripped, will think it's a different biz. The phone numbers are always the same.

Hmmmmmmmm they must have really shrunk those Vortex machines.

I think Nashville has finally gotten rid of those "American" cleaners for awhile. They always use some form of that name. But around here they hired any warm body, threw a portable in the car or truck and sent them out to "upsell".

Really? Cole was wet behind the ears, its called Miller time biotch!

http://www.besthomesservices.com/ This guy worked for us for years before he left to be his own man ran a biz in Norcal then moved to the ATL.

Not that I'm proud but we were the first coupon kings!

The ignorance factor in our industry never ceases to amaze me. Most carpet cleaners don't know what a VORTEX is. Do they really think that a customer has a clue? That ad resembles Franks at Best Homes but I don't believe it's his. Am I right?
