Market ??

What market segment are you after ?? residential or commercial. ??

Do you intend cleaning upholstery.??

What experience does he, or you, have in:

Carpet identification.

Training in carpet &/or upholstery cleaning.

Training in spot & stain removal.

Marketing.

Business management.

Book-keeping.

Why do you want him to get into this business.??

Does he really have a passion to be a carpet cleaner.??

Many young people shun the "I'm a carpet cleaner" image and soon lose interest.

There are many other questions that could be asked, but this is a starting list to ensure he is prepared for a an adventure where if he succeeds he will reap great rewards.

But if he fails, you and him, will be the monetary losers.

Look forward to your answers.

Shorty.


PS::: I'm still learning, 40 years in the game last month and I still love what I can still do.
