Speak to Matt at Cleansmart.
He can make up labels with your logo/name on them. Not worth doing it yourself.
I give a spotter to every customer. I suss them out and if they fit a certain criteria I give them 2 others to give away or get them to ring them and I take them over-all part of the srevice ;)

i give them out, but dont think il buy more, you dont really get any more work from doing it or any more recommends, looks good but thats about it, you'll just be £100 lighter after buying a box of 50

i disagree with you, i've spent years giving away free spotters & all its done is cost me money! i've recently invested in spotters with my own label on & all the trimmings, the solution etc. they cost me £191- & i'm selling them for £8- , £10- if i have to deliver them. conclusion: i wish i'd taken this route years ago. i've found that the custy is more than happy to pay alittle extra to look after there carpets once they've been cleaned. i only give free spotters away for jobs over £200- regards char
-
error; they cost me £1.91 each, not £191- that would cripple me!
-
are these prices you are quoting from making them yourselves or buying a complete bottle with labels?
i have found bottle suppliers but most have minimum amounts like 1000.
-
Been thinking of doing this myself.
What'd be the best stain remover to use? Obviously it needs to be effective, preferably better than the 'supermarket' type stuff but also safe for the customer to use.
