Hi All,

Just wondered how business was looking for the Christmas countdown in CC land. We are about a week in front but, to be honest it is not as busy as I would like. How about the rest of you?

Cheers

About 2 weeks out at the moment but week before Xmas still completley clear.

Much better than last year.

Nobody seems to want cleaning that close to Christmas.

Cheers

Neil

Been fully booked upto the 23rd of dec for 2 days now, thats also working saturdays and sundays, and only had 2 days off in the last 5 weeks... Its bananas over here

perhaps a message for new carpet cleaners would be

save your money as January can be quiet, also the BT phone bill comes and the TAX PERSON

save for the raining that will probably come.

I Agree....... Jan was ok this year but feb and march weren't good. Novembers takings are in a seperate account for such eventualitys and i,m squared up with Mr taxman. A nice position to be in 

Excellent advice Shaun

Last year I finished on the 23rd, so hopefully we'll have a last minuite rush.

What sort of advertising are you doing, I know you are local to me and I am really busy,

If you need any help just give me a call or mail.

We do have a few spaces available at the moment but we are pretty booked up until the 19th Dec.
Also have a large job to complete sometime over the Xmas break (approx 600 sq mtrs),this is a key job so can take my time.
