First up I think all who post here are a credit to your industry. Lots of good advise.
I currently run an antenna business and have had resonable success, buy tired of getting in roofs, under houses etc and have been researching carpet cleaning. I have a good reporte with my customers but if you do a good job they won't need me for another ten years or so. I won't bore you with the details.. not a lot of repeat business mostly referal
I like the idea of having repeat business and flexability with time. I was thinking of residential to start with but after reading a post that Shorty (If you could start again?) gave some good advise on, got me re-thinking. I do like the look of Rick's CMS and more profitability.
Some thoughts on below would be well appreciated...
Starting out, I could probably invest $10000 to start but would prefer less $5-6000.
Would a CRB be the first investment and start from there or go the whole hog and do Cimex as well? Maybe CRB and OP Nautalis 1515C $1500 plus pads approx
Duplex or CRB?
CRB have seen one online here in oz Pro45 by Masterclean $3500
Ive seen a Floormac - 33cm 13" maybe for stairs, tight areas (Swiss by Cleanfix)has brush I think for tiles $1000 plus bonnets
Cheap car buffer modified for chairs $ $100???
Releasit products of course.
Rick's CMS a given
Website $250 (same as my Antenna one www.antennafix.com.au)
Flyers, cards etc
Training in Melbourne ???
These are some thoughts for now, I hope it makes a bit of sense.
Shorty I see your from Cairns go the Cowboys...
I grew up in Rockhampton now living in Tasmania (part of the attraction of VLM)
Thank you all in advance
Tony
