Ah, ok. Love your van, Mike!

To answer everyone's questions -

Any one can run Adwords, I agree.

The key to our business is we are a Google Adwords partner - we also have Google Adwords professionals that work within our business.

 We work on the campaigns every day to ensure you are always at the number 1 spot (depending on agreed budget).

We also drive down the cost per click for your Adwords daily while also increasing your organic position - We can do this quickly and cost effectively because it is our only focus as a business.

The main reason why a lot of carpet cleaners are using us is because we charge such a small management fee to look after everything professionally for you.

You have to ask yourself:

If you are running Adwords - Do you check them every day and do you see a month by month increase in results even though your costs are going down? - Our clients do.

If you are not running Adwords - Do you have the time to check them everyday and manage them? - I can ensure you that you will not be the only person in you area running Adwords which means it can be hard to secure that top spot.

This campaign is also not just about Adwords - We have proven websites that are converting 1 in 2 of every person that lands on it into a contact - Extremely high!

I know I keep going on about it but it would be a massive benefit if you saw the demo - It is all well and good trying to piece everything together from the forum but the demo can show you the true value of this product.

I am contactable on 01329 710 315 until 5pm.

The demo is not going to tie you into anything - it is there only to show you how this works.

One last thing -

We are the Carpet Cleaning Network - A specialist marketing company for carpet cleaners.

We are not like your every day Hibu & Thompson etc

further to my last post i also believe this is an ethical company but as with all other companies you have to take what they say on trust, they take your money up front and if they do not deliver what they say they can you do not get a refund and they have still had your money, you are the only loser.

i would love to find a marketing company that got paid on results and not promises.

Oliver, I'm sure you are very keen for this to succeed. When we are desperate for something to succeed, we sometimes get carried away.

People in our business have been caught out before and are naturally wary of anyone offering fantastic results (even if they are completely ethical in their approach).

In view of this, is there anything you have said here or on your website that you feel needs to be moderated or clarified?

[Oliver Beamer]

If you have any questions, please email me - oliver.beamer@carpetcleaningnetwork.co.uk

[garry22]

I won't waste your time as I will not be using you for Adwords, internet marketing or any other marketing.

I'm surprised that you are bothering with carpet cleaners. With 50% conversions from cold visitors, you could make a fortune doing cosmetic dentistry, weight loss or mesothelioma niches. That's where the huge payoffs are.

I found this, seems like the same set up for MoT Garages. Done a few years ago.

PS - The site made me giddy, so watch out..!

[garry22]

motsales.co.uk was the original template which spawned

digitalincubator.co  which led to

carpetcleaningnetwork.co.uk  rolled out like mot sales co uk

Nothing wrong in repeating a formula

[Simon Gerrard]

So is anyone on here using this scheme?

[Buckland]

Simon - yes good question be interesting to hear from them - presumably the people in the links under OB's posts - ie: Bristol, Llanelli, Cheltenham, West Lothian, Solihull, Newcastle

Just checked how my adwords advert is and see they are in my area, Banbury and are showing up as number 2.  What is really annoying is that its a landing page built by the Carpet Cleaning Network and it could be one of my local competitors or someone just covering the area from miles away, no address given to say if local or not. Personally i never deal with anyone who hides who they are.

[Mike Halliday]

i think thats all they are is an adwords management company. they basically set up a satellite website charge £500 set up costs (less 20% for ciu members) and £100 pm management fee's plus whatever your pay per click costs are on top.


£500 then a £100 a month plus click cost,  how is this cheaper than doing it yourself?

Unless you don't have a website or are completely clueless about adwords ( but then you could pay yourselves the £500 to take a few days of work to learn about adwords)

[Hilton]

I'm not sure about this oufit or its costs but sometimes its much more sensible to out source things you are not competent at or that take you away from your business.

If I was doing an adwords campaign I would defiantly pass it on to experts in that field as I am sure they would have a better grasp on whats required and know how to best place it to best effect than I certainly would.

[Mike Halliday]

I spent 12 yrs passing on leather cleaning, I was under the assumption it was beyond me and too technical/difficult

Now it's nearly the easiest money I make, I think Adwords is the same

Limited Geographical area, each keyword having its own campaign, setting the timing & days the advert show etc

It's only seems difficult when you don't know how to do it, I have a limited knowledge but it stops me getting huge bills and makes my advert do what I want.

[derek west]

i was paying a professional to do my adwords campaign, then decided to look into doing it myself, bought a great book and read it, had a look at the professionals campaign and it was a complete joke. anyone can say they are an expert at adwords and if you haven't got a clue then you'll believe them. after reading the book i got someelse in to do a new campaign and guess what, they were a joke as well. first carpet cleaning campaign they did went straight to my home page when it should of gone straight to my carpet cleaning page. sacked them as well.

my advice, buy a book on adwords, watch a few videos, and then either do it yourself or get someone in to do it but at least if you do the latter, you know what questions to ask and you can pop in and check on the campaign as its being built.

Adwords is actually relatively easy to do, i'm now doing my own campaigns, building them slowly and right. and actually enjoying it.

[creighton foyle]

derek what was the title of the book you bought ?.

I always felt and all due respects to her as she knows her stuff made it more complicated than it is. That said i have a major problem on my own suite.  Think I need to see if Judy can help, as if it was a customers it would be very scary.
