Title: Advertising on Ebay
Post by: *paul_moss on October 17, 2007, 09:12:19 pm

There are quite a few cleaners now offering their services on ebay as it is a cheap way of advertising as thousands of people go onto it every day.

But does it work?

I know a few guys on the forum have tried it.

Had one  job but at £1.28 for a months advertising I'd say it was worth it.Just add one job more than I've had from spick & span directory in fact only had one visit as of yesterday from there

It would never occur to me, if I wanted to have my carpets cleaned, to log into ebay under carpet cleaning.  Maybe if I wanted to purchase a vax machine or the likes but never to actually find a carpet cleaner.
£44 for H/S/L ??? ???  but then I don't know Northwich.  Most of the halls I clean come to a darn sight more than £44 let alone the stairs & landing
