lots of people out there need thier carpets cleaning, if they are not ringing you they are ringing someone else,
Now I disagree.
Everyone who has a carpet or owns a suite that has not had it cleaned in the last 12 months
needs it doing, so that probably amounts to 30 million properties around the country.
The difference between 'Needs' 'Wants' and can 'Afford' to are a totally different ball game.
I think you're missing the point Mike. Most of us who have high ranking web site with advertising other than 30,000 leaflets have noticed a huge down turn in the number of enquiries we are getting, and you have to start at the enquirey stage....unless your leaflets are offering such low prices to entice people in.
I'm not saying you do, but if I knew no different and I suddenly got a leaflet saying all carpets cleaned in a 3 bed property for £40 I would probably be on the phone to them. Difference is I don't think there is one person on here who does that sort of thing, well I hope they don't anyway.
There's no douting it the British population is scared sense less at the moment about what will happen after next week, and you can't get away from that. The choice between sitting on a dirty sofa or having £100 in the bank is a no brainer for millions at the moment.
