You Can Save Money on Carpet Cleaning!
Thanks for stopping by! Whenever I have a chance, I search google to find the most common questions that people have regarding carpet cleaning. One common question that surfaces often is, “How can I save money on carpet cleaning?”, and so today’s blog is going to answer the question with some actionable ideas and steps you can take yourself to do exactly that: save money on your next carpet cleaning. OK, here we go…
If you’re happy with your service, I’d recommend pitching some mutually beneficial offers to your cleaner. Tell your carpet cleaning service that you will refer 3 of your friends to the service in the next 6 months, and then negotiate a price discount off your next cleaning for doing so. Price still too high? Bounce referring five friends to the service.
For my part, I’d be happy to discount up to 50% off the price of a cleaning for someone who got me 5 new clients!
Here’s the method. Pay the service owner and add a ten dollar tip. Tell him/her how happy you were with the service and ask if you can leave a review somewhere. He 0r She will be TICKLED PINK! Leave a glowing review, assuming it’s deserved (if not deserved, then why are you paying so much for a service that you’re not even satisfied with? Just skip this step and move forward ten squares to “find a cheaper carpet cleaning service”).
As soon as your review posts, call your carpet cleaning service and be sure to speak to the owner. Tell him or her how happy you are and that you left them a 5 star review and you’d like for them to see it. Then mention that you have several friends that you’d like to refer to his/her cleaning service. Explain that you were hoping that you might get a referral discount of 10 percent for each client you refer. You might also ask if the owner will be willing to offer a 10% discount to your friends, as well.
Next step, pick up the phone and get to work. Ten referrals per year is one free cleaning, and one happy carpet cleaning service owner.
Vacuum diligently, twice per week. Take off your shoes when you enter the house. Commit to this, it’s a great idea! “No shoes in the house!” Make it a house rule for all and be firm and be a good example. These two simple steps will significantly decrease the amount of soiling in your carpet, by perhaps as much as fifty percent (or more!) You could easily increase, and even double the time needed between cleanings, which ultimately, turns out to be a 50% savings.
There are other things you can do as well to ensure that your carpets stay cleaner & fresher – for longer. Clean up spills immediately. Restrict food and drink areas to the kitchen and perhaps the kids playroom. Decide what’s right for you and your family. Trust me, in the end, if you making the effort, the results will come. Not only will your carpets need cleaning less often, they will also last longer, and if you really think about it, a longer lasting carpet is another cost savings.
