I mean I get a lot of calls that used them once. I look like a hero compared to them. Even get calls to fix the problems they create.They do have impressive McDonalds like marketing. Can’t argue with that.
LOL
I wish I was that creative
And had that budget
Oh I know what you meant. We all know. I’m just being nice because SS is the soupe du jour right now.I mean I get a lot of calls that used them once. I look like a hero compared to them. Even get calls to fix the problems they create.
They have been good for my business.
The franchise can regulate operations to an extent, but each franchise is really only as good as the owner. Our experiments with ex-SS guys have failed because we can't break them of the "high speed" mindset. I understand SS is trying to move upmarket though, so maybe the two-man, gone in 60 seconds methodology is old news.I mean I get a lot of calls that used them once.

So are we becoming the new "I love Stanley Steemer" board?
yes and no
Yes in the sense that "lower standards" of cleaning are acceptable here now .
(wasn't always so and you weren't chit if you didn't endeavor to be God's gift to fiber bundle fastidiousness)
The well respected/well liked board stars made dirt smearing enRcap and soap dispensing wand scrubbers "value priced" well and good too
no in the sense of bait 'n switch schmucks and other nefarious, unethical biz practices and marketing lies
the former should be welcome (there's a place for all biz models ) from buck-o-foot bells 'n whistles boutique outfits to $49.95 two rm specials (and hope they buy the squirtguard protectant)
There's place for all the ethical ones
I'd suggest the Stanley's and Hogopian's of the world certainly fit the ethical biz model
the latter..schmucks and liars should always be called out
hell, even the primary spray 'n wipe/VLM only guys would be accepted .
They get dogged mostly for their pantload-o-chit marketing (and rightly so)
if not for that, there's a place for them too
Don't be a hater to anyone but the lying and unethical schmucks
we allz jus trying to making a livin' Son
Beit in the "good, better, best" market
now, go do the right thing
.L.TA.
She's hot
And you like Martha Stewart?..schmucks and liars should always be called out
Still the have problems with polys and olefin
And you like Martha Stewart?
I want to see where she hides her prison tattoo ......
..L.T.A.
hell, half or more out there do
why you do you think there are so many pixie dust gallons-o-gunk on the market
I personally have no problem delineating a biz relationship with a "monkey biz" one
I want to see where she hides her prison tattoo ......

My point was O/O for the win on extreme carpet challenges!
You should stay out of cleaning threads
Assuming that because you are an owner op it automatically makes you a better cleaner isn’t a straight across the board truth.
Sorry to ruin yor weekend!
Before you start throwing stones at me, think about how credible your argument really is. An owner op will out clean any hired tech. ???
1. Many of yourselves were once “hired tech’s”, were you so bad then, or did you care about your quality?
2. Many of you have tech’s you trust to clean daily. They are not owner op’s
3. A trained tech equipped with all the latest and greatest tools, chem’s and tm can’t compete with:
a) Newby owner Ops that haven’t a clue yet
b) Facebook fools that use are borderline skitzo’s but great carpet cleaners…really?
c) Broke dik fools that are using anything from a bar of soap to wd40 and under powered TM’s
d) Portable owner op’s. My tech with a Everest, Prochem chem’s, Zipper Spinner can’t compete with an owner op porty user? REALLY?
Assuming that because you are an owner op it automatically makes you a better cleaner isn’t a straight across the board truth.
Sorry to ruin yor weekend!
Good for you. If only you can get your techs trained and enjoying the challenge. Biggest problem I had working for large corps., .is that they would overload me with jobs, not giving me the time to do a proper job. 5-6 jobs a day is not consistent with quality.View attachment 77901View attachment 77902 View attachment 77904 View attachment 77906
I’ll take that bet .... the Stanley one at least. I’m not putting money on the Browns.
That is the key for sure. Tools don’t mean squat without tech buy in. I’ll tell you right now that my crews are fighting over who gets a CRB each day. They’re definitely sold on the results of it. We just got the Devestators today so we’ll see.Good for you. If only you can get your techs trained and enjoying the challenge.
