Does anybody find you via this route?
I keep getting calls from them. Usually I just cut them dead but today I let them carry on with their spiel. They wouldn't entertain my suggestion of a 30 day free trial with a guarantee to sign up if it brought business in.
One off cost of 200 plus almost £30/month. Both plus VAT. But they seem to be getting people to sign up - just 1 space left on the 'guaranteed' first page slot for our area but I can't imagine any of my competitors admitting whether its a waste of money or not. I have a pal who does just carpet cleaning and when I first spoke to him he didn't have a good word to say about them but more recently he has admitted that he has got some work, albeit limited from it.
I think this might be the way for the future but at the moment I think people are more likely to pick up the YP or similar.
What do other people think

Don't do it.It's a waste of money quite a few cc have had dealings with them.If you do a search on the carpet cleaning forum you will see what I mean.They get quite aggressive when I tell them I'm not interested ::)

I have had about 3 calls off these people and the best price they can come up with is 70 quid.
But no free trials.
Need I say I decided not to bother.
