I cleaned carpets for a former capet tech of Oxyclean. He told me they don’t pre-vacuum or groom the carpets. Their machine compares and looks like the units sold at Target or Wal-mart . Their process consist of the oxy chemical being applied to the carpet then the two small brushes work the chemical into the carpet while the small vacuum in the unit tries to extract the dirt and soil. A Oxyclean operator started just over a year ago in my area will little sucess. I haven’t seen his PU truck in over 7 Months.
I hope this helpsNovember 5, 2007 at 4:55 pm #150873HBPuyallupParticipantThere is a oxi magic and oxi clean I think are the two names. I assume the have similar process they say dry in 1 hour. I haven’t heard much about them. My concern is that if they do a bad job people won’t want to try us. I don’t really see them a major competition.
November 5, 2007 at 8:47 pm #150874pachecoParticipantThe way I see it, we have only 2 major competitors….1) the guy that has been cleaning carpets for many years and has a lot of (supposedly) happy customers who have come to accept 2-3 day drying time and the ever reappearing spots, and 2) ourselves.
We have never, ever in 4.5 years published our prices!!!!! And never will…I hope.
We do publish discount percentages or dollar discounts….never prices. The price then becomes a target for the competition to price under….Never publish prices is my advice…
Just my 2 bits on the subject…

RickNovember 6, 2007 at 6:24 am #150876FL18ParticipantSounds like the same stuff Chem-dry uses or please correct me if I’m wrong.

If they only charge $55 for two rooms they will probably attract the customers we may want to ‘pass’ on anyway.
The customers I want are the ones concerned more with quality then price.
Agree?
November 6, 2007 at 11:26 pm #150878AnonymousInactiveOxifresh…. I’ve come to learn over the last week or two that oxifresh really isnt to aware of there system or prices or really whats going on. I like to call my local competitors from time to time to see what they charge as apposed to what I charge so I went online to yellowpages.com and typed in carpet cleaners in my area and learned that Oxifresh made its way toward me so I called them to learn there system and to check there prices. I wasnt to shocked to hear there prices, typical bait and switch operation. But then a few days go by and money mailer calls me trying to make a sale and tells me that oxifresh advertises with him for 6 rooms for 154.99 and online they advertise 5 rooms for 169.99 or something in that range. So I found it amusing that they cant make there prices match. But in my conversation with Oxifresh and how there system works the lady blatenly told me on the phone she wasnt really sure how it works it was a new system and were still learning it themselves. Needless to say if I were a customer they wouldnt have got my business.
