Carpet Steam Cleaning

3 Reasons Carpet Steam Cleaning Is Not The Only Answer

Carpet steam cleaning is probably the most popular cleaning system for cleaning carpets. It does a great job and my company uses steam cleaning much of the time. But let me say this. It is not the only system and don’t get stuck with old thinking. Old thinking can cost you a lot of money. In fact it can be the difference between being rich or poor. I don’t know about you but I would much rather be rich than poor because first of all I can help more people.

Let me first start by saying what the customer most wants is good service and clean carpets. They don’t really care what method you use in most cases they just care that their carpets are really clean and you are a good company to deal with.

There are many different and good carpet cleaning systems to use but one of the main reason many different systems are not tried is because of our industries mindset of being slow to change. We get stuck in our old ways and find it hard to change. Remember the customer is just looking for clean carpets so here is the:

3 Reasons Carpet Steam Cleaning Is Not The Only Answer.

1. Carpet steam cleaning can be the most expensive way for a small business owner to clean carpets but it may not always give your customer the best results in some carpet cleaning applications. If for example it cost 5 cents a square foot for carpet steam cleaning and only a ½ cent per square foot to use a carpet encapsulation system you would make more money as a business owner and give a better cleaning job to your customers in many instances.

2. Carpet steam cleaning can be the slower method for cleaning in some instances. You may only clean up 500 square feet per hour as opposed to the carpet encapsulation system which can some times do 3000 square feet per hour. Once again in many cases the customers will have a better carpet cleaning job with the encapsulation method over the steam cleaning and it can be six times faster.

3. Carpet steam cleaning in many cases is much more involved to train your staff to operate and run properly than say carpet encapsulation systems. Your costs go up to operate a truck mounted steam cleaning machine as opposed to a dry carpet encapsulation floor maintaining type of carpet cleaning.

Those are three very powerful reasons to choose encapsulation over carpet steam cleaning. You can literally make ten times your profit margins and have an easier business to operate. There is not just carpet cleaning encapsulation systems that give you this advantage but many other systems as well that will make your life easier and more profitable.

So why is carpet steam cleaning more popular? Because most people in the industry get stuck in their ways and can’t think outside the box. Sooner or later they will change or they will be changed or face possible bankruptcy. I doesn’t bother me that others don’t change because it does give me an easy competitive advantage and besides I like my BMW and nice vacations every year. Be a leader and not a follower.
