derek i do'nt know if "they" as in the directors would want to listen to you as i think some of them are doing nicely out of the ncca already, being paid for training and expenses etc.  i am in no way trying to say anything illegal or untoward is going on as i am sure all the trainers deserve their reputations on merit however one example that could be a possible conflict of interest is their apperant refusal to allow trainees that have done a course with derek bolton at cleansmart to be allowed to join the ncca after completion of that course yet dereks name is on some of the training manuel content issued by the ncca and the courses are virtually identical in every way.now surely it would be in the interests of the ncca to allow people who have done this course ( and of course taken the very difficult to pass exam )to join if they want to, this of course will not happen because the ncca will lose their training fee which is a lot more than cleansmarts fee and of course the trainers might get less training work out of it because given a choice what would you pay for the course matts charges or the ncca's.

now regarding who would listen to a newbie like you ? well i would call me a newbie not you and having met you once you seem to be pretty switched on with some quite radical but workable ideas and if you do'nt mind me saying i think you would be like a dog with a bone once your mind is set and it is people like you that can make things go forward and get the job done so invest your £250 to join the ncca and take it from there.

lastly i need to say i have no axe to grind with the ncca or its directors but i would not be human if i did not question their motives and why they do the job apparently for free.

Can I thank everyone who has had an imput in this thread and hope some people
with influence in the ncca, suppliers, chemical producers and carpet manufacturers and
suppliers have had a read IMO we need to be pro active as the diy market is growing
with money to burn on advertising this business needs a strong organisation to lead it
and I hope changes can be made in the ncca to make that happen and a lot of the guys
with good ideas and vision on here and other forums join and push forward with making
it something for carpet cleaners to be proud of.

Derek,

I said it on another forum. I really does look the business.

I've got a friend who was worried about competing against more senior members of his profession. I told him it's not the best that succeed, it's those whose marketing is the best.

in order of importance to running a successful carpet cleaning company i would say

1 marketting
2 personality
3 knowledge of the job
4 equipment
5 drive thru macdonalds
