Title: Day Out With Professional
Post by: premiermaids on March 22, 2009, 08:39:41 pm

Hi, I am hoping to start a carpet cleaning business in May.

I have received two days training (From Ashby’s) and am heading for
The NCCA course at the end of April.

Would anyone be prepared to give me the opportunity to gain some
practical experience (odd day out) before my NCCA course?

I have bags of enthusiasm but could really do with the practical experience.

Any offers would be really appreciated – I am based in Faversham (Nr. Canterbury)
Kent.

Regards

Jim

I had a day out with Len Gribble on Saturday and would like to thank him for taking the time to help out a newbie.

Len is a diamond.

Forums like this provide real opportunities for everyone from ‘newbie’s’ to  seasoned CC’s to learn from one another – long may it continue.

My pleasure didn’t get the tea satin out but a lot better than what it was! Take your time in spending money, would have loved to have taken your money on some of the equipment you think you need  :o :'( :-X! Have a good whiff of ammonia that clears the senses.  Best of luck with your new venture.
