Kinder Clean could be available soon.  ;D

I chose a poop name Mark and a year on I'm seriously considering changing it, no offense but I would have a re-think.

Keep it  short, simple and straigh to the point and the same for your tag line to go underneath. Make it very obvious what your selling and what your USP is.

Try looking at tradesmens vans when your out and about, bearing in mind you mostly only get a fleeting glance, isn't it anoying when you see a nice smart van, with good looking decals but you haven't got a clue what it is they do for a living.

A good idea I found is to find yellow pages USA and Australia, get comfortable and search all the carpet cleaners listed, your sure to come up with some good idea's, just be sure to check nobody is using the same name within your area.

Cheers Paul

I was at Howley hall golf club in Morley last week playing golf, tried to get the job of the carpets whilst there. " like you do " but they already have a member who is a c/c   :'( ;)
