Thought i'd post this so there is no speculation.
We are ready to grow, will you be joining us?
Dear TACCA Member,
For the last 5 years The Approved Carpet Cleaners Alliance has been supporting you and other carpet cleaning businesses by providing a logo and website, leads through Facebook referrals and direct jobs through the main TACCA website and all at no cost to our members. From the start we've always had two main goals for TACCA:
To give all who supported it something to belong to, something we could all be proud of showing off to our customers, while generating leads for our awesome members!
To use the website, our branding and increasing public recognition as a platform to educate consumers that not all carpet cleaners are the same.
We sincerely hope you have benefited from the past 5 years of free support to help you grow, but now we want to be able to offer you so much more!
What are the benefits of TACCA membership?
Online marketing boosts for your website from links and mentions on the TACCA website which have serious effects on your SEO and Google rankings.
Our branding to use when promoting yourself with backing from the website and business page. People trust a company more when they are part of something bigger.
An active private Facebook group with 20-30 posts a day and a high level of support and advice. Access to shared projects & opportunities for more work.
Leads direct through the TACCA website. This will be increased with funding to improve the current lead platform.
