Credit Crunch – Great News
June 1st 2008 The credit crunch signals good news for the cleaning industry. Whereas during periods of economic growth consumers were replacing carpets and upholstery etc. to suit their new colour schemes, the latest fashions or just because they fancied a change, they will now go back to cleaning and stain removal instead: It is a much cheaper option and can restore homes and business premises as we all know. The cleaning industry has always benefited from a recession as the throw away society becomes much more money conscious.
Now is the time to get things in place for the upturn and think about extra training particularly in areas such as advanced spot and stain removal techniques and carpet and upholstery problem solving.Many professionals are also demanding training on a multitude of surfaces including wood, laminates, stone etc., so they can maximise every opportunity and every valuable phone call they receive.
There are many sources of great training – and also some which is not so great.
