it will be for selling us the Anthea Turner perfect care plan but it's not a hard sell as I've been on something like this before.

Mike are you rubbing salt in as you'll be working/earning?

I had the day booked off as 'she' wanted to go shopping so I bottled out ;D

A good customer of mine says he always carries a piece of paper and a pen in his hand and always always keeps walking, he tells me that it looks as though he's doing something useful and also it's harder to hit a moving target.

Your thought are appreciated.

 Shaun while you lot are talking about earning money, I''ll be doing it :D :D

but looking at the people who have said they are going they need all the help they can get ;D ;D  :D

to be serious if I'd known about it i would have gone (to have a good chin-wag)

sounds like a big fat worm on a hook. we can all offer care plans to customer i have  for a few years.
let me guess two or three thousand for some plan,what you will find are your reg customers will sign up because they trust you,new ones come and go

So long as you are not the type who goes on holiday and comes home with a timeshare, I think it will be great value.

Pick me up on your way past ;D

Post by: Shaun_Ashmore on May 14, 2008, 09:37:58 pm
Michael I never really got into it but am making another one that suits me a little more. The menu is a great way of starting at the same point as the non educated cleaner and then offering the benefits of better cleaning but building up the price so realistically the customer can see why the other cleaner is cheap.

I'll have a chat with the others and see what they do but I wouldn't mind seeing how it's done on a cold lead, anyone fancy a 'shadow'?

Yes I attended the one yesterday Sat 16th May in Leeds along with about 20 others.

Started 10am went on til about 5.15pm
Buffet lunch (time for a chat with others) and break in the afternoon.

Informative and amusing - enjoyed the day.

Was obviously about marketing and the Alltec Anthea plan did come into it but no big hard sales.

Demo at luchtime of hard floor cleaning on the tile grout in the toilets - interesting to say the least as 20 people all peering into a single unit toilet with people walking past who were obviously going to a wedding :D

Picked up more then a few useful points and some more to think about as I re-read the notes I took and the manual with cd we received.

I can say it was worthwhile to me.

Very informative going to try the miss you letters if they work then maybe consider joining but minimum charge of £95 :o :o

Joe did you get the car started??

We waited half hr for breakdown steve, they got us running straight away.  Faulty battery i think.  Thanks for the push!   ;D

Post by: Deep Clean Newcastle Gateshead on May 18, 2008, 09:44:58 am
Good day, and no hard sell, herd a lot about and done a lot of the Joe Polish stuff, but actually having some one run through it rather than listening to it on audio made all the difference.
Going to try same letter as Steve, and see what happens, would love to do the Alltec training, only prob is they dont come up north for it, its all down south!!!!

The miss you letter can be worthwhile, but I hope it's not the original Piranha one .

Funnily enough.................I just received a " miss you " /  " long time no hear " card, yesterday.  Came from one of the internet gaming type sites which I've never been in, but ..................I automatically assumed it was from a previous supplier or someone I'd dealt with in the past    IT GOT MY ATTENTION.

A very good day, pricing is all in the mind it's only the knock backs we don't like!

I thought Alltec would have pushed the Fastrack and Perfect Care more but they were actually telling you how it worked nothing more, one thing it did explain at detail was that the relationship with our customers and our customers with us isn't all about price it's about service.

Great day, I'd recommend everyone should goto one.

I miss you letters do work.  I used them last year only tailored it to my taste.

However I dont think its the content of this particular letter that has the pulling power more that I contacted my customers and those who at that time needed cleaning rang me as did those who lost my number over the years.

Im very infrequent with customer contact so this is another reason it worked so well.

Sounds to me it was very timely that you sent out a "I Miss You " letter and it worked!
