I was real scared to take the jump, the previous owner of the area I bought was constintaly advertising 3 rooms and a hall for $99 (up to 500 sq ft.)
so to start things off we gave a 20% off special when they had protecter applied. basicaly selling the protecter at half price.
after we did that the last part of our first year
the following spring our price was .40 only if really bad urine or allota red dye would we charge more then that. did end up losing quite a few customers during the transition (most of the nasty jobs we dont want)
another thing to considerI count on word of mouth for advertising I also give them a large spotter bottle to thank them for telling there friends and family about heavens best
so if your used to advertising prices you might want to try educational ads like we were shoed in corperate.
so in summary we make mose money and have nicer carpets to clean.
good luck
PatI will be putting in a maytag commercial double load machine as soon as I can get my shop built about 7 g’s i figure iy will pay for itself in 9 years just with the quaters I drop. the water, power and maintance costs will more then be made up with not having to watch the world spin or paying an employee to do it
My logos Are still as awsome as the day I picked it up from corporate, (thanks again) but for bujeting purposes how long (average please) can we expect it to still look good?
Thanks,

PatIn Florida, an atheist became incensed over the preparation of Easter and Passover holidays. He decided to contact his lawyer about the discrimination inflicted on atheists by the constant celebrations afforded to Christians and Jews with all their holidays while atheists had no holiday to celebrate.
The case was brought before a judge. After listening to the long passionate presentation by the lawyer, the Judge banged his gavel and declared, “Case dismissed!”
The lawyer immediately stood and objected to the ruling and said, “Your honor, how can you possibly dismiss this case? The Christians have Christmas, Easter and many other observances. Jews have Passover, Yom Kippur and Hanukkah… yet my client and all other atheists have no such holiday!”
The judge leaned forward in his chair and simply said, “Obviously your client is too confused to even know about, much less celebrate his own atheists’ holiday!”
The lawyer pompously said, “Your Honor, we are unaware of any such holiday for atheists. And, just when might that holiday be, your Honor?”
The judge said, “Well it comes every year on exactly the same date—April 1st! Since our calendar sets April 1st as “April Fools Day,” consider that Psalm 14:1 states, ‘The fool says in his heart, there is no God.’ Thus, in my opinion, if your client says there is no God, then by Scripture, he is a fool, and April 1st is his holiday! Now have a good day and get out of my courtroom…”the max psi is 200, i usually fill to about 130 and am good for a couple average jobs, it took me about 3 small compressors to find one with a good enough grip for the non-threaded stem
