You usually want to be bonded if you have employees. Texas doesn’t require Business insurance or bonding.

Are these stair buffers worth the money? I’ve heard other operators say they are unhappy with them.

I saw a mini printer in an office we cleaned. I’ll try to find out where they got it. I think it was HP. It is as wide as a regular piece of computer paper and about half the size of a regular sized keyboard. Might be a little smaller. Would work well I believe.

Keep in mind all the things that this franchise does do for it’s operators, not to mention the low fees we pay. You should of had a back up van or already had a van when u bought this franchise. Or use a truck. Cody and the corporate office our learning just as much as we go through this transition.

I just clean the holding take with bleach. Set out to air dry the whole day and then should solve problem. U can also put orange deoderizer or fresh scent or cherry almond and put lid on and plug up whole on top and let sit for couple hours and then air dry.

It is probably your oxygen sensor. Take it to your local auto parts store and they will usually put it on the computer for free to find the problem. Check owners manual to do it yourself. Usually difficult though. Oxygen sensors run about 85 to 150 bucks. Just depends on year.

I agree with all of you to a certain extent.
Kevin Harrison: Yes it would be great exposure for me because I live in a populous of 500,000 plus. I agree that it would not be very smart to do this in rural areas but why would you open a carpet cleaning franchise in a rural area to begin with.
Mike Bishop– No one is asking to take a percentage of our revenue. I’m giving an example of a flat rate which, by the way, has helped the company I am talking about in my first post to grow from 8 franchises to 30 in just this past year. You can’t argue with those numbers. Those 8 I am talking about have made an average, per franchise, of $500,000 just last year. So ponder that for a while.
Devlin– Yes, it is per territory. Review numbers above. The last comment you made about “sucks”; what is our company doing to us at this moment.
Daveinpa– Ditto right back at you.
Trust me guys. I simply ask this question because their are benefits and drawbacks ofcousre. For big city operators it would probably pay off. For rural areas it probably wouldn’t. Depends on how rural we are talking about.
