Service business with seasonal downturns
Maybe the volume of your work declines on a seasonal basis. For example, a
lot of landscapers in northern climates have to turn to other pursuits when
the weather turns cold.
You should consider adding a Challenger Pad Machine to your equipment
inventory, then let both your customers as well as others in your market
area know that you are now able to offer premium-quality, rapid-drying,
chemical-free and odor-free carpet cleaning. As an indoor service, carpet
cleaning can be performed at any time of year, regardless of weather
conditions out of doors.
You customers already know and trust you and your people. Now when they
want cleaner carpeting and rugs, they won't have to go hunting in the
Yellow Pages to reluctantly find a carpet cleaner whom they know nothing
about. Instead, you'll fill the bill for them in this area, generating
handsome dollars-per-hour for your efforts, and further bonding with those
customers. The more services you can credibly perform for them, the less
likely they are to switch over to one of your competitors.
