Hi Guys I was thinking of doing one of those fast track marketing courses through Alltec, has anyone been on one do they work?
-
As long as you're filling Robert's wallet you'll be welcomed with open pockets :-X :-X
-
sales talk top class after sales a bit like talking to a switch board
-
I telephoned and spoke th him, he sounded helpful. Went through all what I wanted etc. Must have been on the telephone for at least 20 minutes. He said he would send me a quote over.
I never recieved the quotation. He never chased it up either.
I never bought from him. I think in the long run I am pleased I didnt.

Peoples opinions of Robert and his business style vary, but I wont comment on that.
However the portable machines he makes I have found are tough and reliable, cant comment on the TM's though, though they seem to be OK.
But I have found the guys that do the servicing and all his work to be top notch and will do anything to get you back to work. Some have been CC's so know what its like to have a breakdown on site.
At the mo they are revamping a second hand machine and putting it into a van so if you have a serious breakdown you keep running.
I call that a good service, at the end of the day you pays your money etc etc.........

Wayne,
only listen to those who have done the course, as these are the only people who can give you an opinion on whether it was worth it or not, do not listen to the others, as they have no idea, How could they?
I have not doen the course, just helping you sort the good from the bad comments
-
Thankyou karl I was hoping to find someone that had done the course and could let me know if it was succesfull or not, Ive read good thinks about there products ie machines but nothing about the courses. ???
-
Have you try asking on the other forums. ie ccdo
-
Never heard of that one Karl thanks Ill take a look! :)

Perhap's a better question would be "Will Alltec value my custom", answer...yes. There are a good number of marketing courses, some better than other's. It's a fair bet you can find any number of people who are either for, or against each of them. The common denominator is you will get out of them what you want. Listening to someone telling you what to do and getting of your backside and doing it are two different things.
It is in Alltec's interest for you to succeed as you are then likely to purchase more goods and services from them, but they can't, and wont do it for you.

Heard your question Adi on the webinar (wished Robert had kept out of it as he kept pressing the wrong buttons!) there's a good deal going on with Alltec if you fancy the Fast Track it's like a starter deal for 3 months a one on one with a web guru.

I was on the webinar as well Shaun, that Mark knows his stuff.
But I just went on the keyword tool and all of googles suggestions are full bars.

I still think it's a numbers game makes sense of what Ian Harper has been saying for months but Ian can't put it across as well as the 'guru' I recieved Marks free stuff through the post today and I'm hoping to watch it over the weekend dependant on the kids and the missus hogging the laptop or telly or both.
It'll be a selling piece but it was free.
Shaun
-
where did you find the free stuff - is it on his website ?
-
Shaun & Steve,
Agree Mark is proberbly the only person i've actully understood about the web stuff. Certainly worth an investment, it's something I've been getting round to for ages and now seems as good a time as any. Perhap's if we get enquiries from each others area we can pass them on.
How about the seminar at the enad of the month, any one going?
-
I fancy it Adi - but it aint cheap !
-
Perhaps Robert will give a discount for a group booking.
-
Have you been drinking, lol !! :o
-
Steve,Adi & Shawn I also listened in on the seminar tonight but i missed the first half an hour is there somewhere I could isten to it again?
-
Steve,
Drunk with power, in my own office anyway.
Wayne
Sorry, don't know.
-
£400 plus vat, that's good value but I appreciate you have to have the spare cash.
£250 up front and £50 x 3 months plus the vat.

-
Sorry guys but what is a webinar?
Where can I find out what is going on with people going to whatever it is wherever please?
-
Webinar is online discussion/lecture. You need to contact Alltec.
-
Alltec also have there own forum...

I have done the Fast Track. Its far too involved to go into any depth about on here and has no doubt changed quite a bit from when I did it nearly 10 years ago, after being in this business over 20 years. All I can say is that by using just a couple of the strategies, within 18 months I had almost doubled my turnover.
Colin Bright could tell you how he has become one of the top charging carpet cleaners after going on the same Fast Track, as a new start up. He has admitted that but for the Fast Track he would have gone down the road as a cheap fool rushing about doing many cheap jobs and making no money.

Cheers Dave sounds like I need to speak to Colin! :)

Hi, sorry i know it's a bit late after you have all talked about Alltec, I'm not a CC yet, i thought next weekend would be a good idea and at £250 + 3x £50 thought it seemed rather cheap. If any of you are going then i will defineately go as my only concern was no real CC's would turn up.
Getting work is as everyone says doing the things you think about to me a kick up the rear every now and then helps (even at £400).
I am thinking of buying the aqua 40 plus £1650, to add to our business, we will probably do a mix of Dom and comm.
The machine seems reasonably priced, we get a 2 day course for the guy who will do the cleaning.
Do tell me what you think
-
In my opinion I think you are buying wrong machine
If you are signing up to earn £5 plus a metre average job £250 etc you need the best van and the best equipment available.
You need to impress Mr and Mrs High End
