TMF Exclusive:Kick Start Mentor Program (RIDE ALONG WITH TMF!)

Hey don't forget that they get to meet me too Rob!

Tre it is a major compliment for the self proclaimed Worlds Greatest Carpet Cleaning Board to need to copy I guess WOW how original of them LOL ROFL LOL ROFL

That is a great idea Robert. Please email me more details.

I would agree with Billy 100%
Just shows how well respected you must be for others to have to copy you.

Mick

That's one heck of a deal!
And a once in a lifetime opportunity!
If I lived closer, I would jump at this chance.


Great idea, Great guys!

Long - I know, but worth reading if thinking of doing this!

I entered the Floor cleaning business in 2008. After hours being cut at the full time job I held for years, I found that it was no longer paying the bills. There where many options to choice in the manner of a small business and weighting them all out I choose Floor cleaning as my best New Career Choice.

Then the fun started. What I knew about doing the job was very little. I had had mine cleaned every 6mths but find that they all did a poor job. The Last one put dry chemicals down and used and big brush machine. I fiancée came home and noticed that it was all "still filthy". She then pours a small glass of water on the floor and then used a 1hp shop Vac to pick it up. This left a large lighter color on the floor. I do not argue with her about cleaning any more. That was a $75.00 lesson Knowing that I wanted to be better than the ones that had been at my house, I set out to learn all I could. Here is where I am going to make this short.

After reading many articles and posting, asking about equipment and problems they have and trying to understand the chemicals I knew I needed one-on-one training. I felt I could get a job doing it for someone else. There was no way I was going to mislead someone like that, nor did I wish to take the long road.

I found TMF Mentor Kick Start Program. This was in August 2008. The program had what I was looking for. The expense was reasonable and it covered all the areas that I needed to really hit the ground running. I spent the week of Aug 11th in Virginia Beach. It was a lot of work. There was so much to learn. The chemicals where my toughest part to learn, too many different names and no clear comparisons. We did small jobs, very large jobs and commercial jobs. The training has taken away much of the uneasiness of stepping into a home to do a job by myself. After haven had the “Ball” put in my hands at the training, I learned just what it takes to “be the one in charge”. I learn a lot about the Chemicals that week, how to advertise, up-sell, change calls to sells, and set up the many aspects of a small business office. The one part that stands out was the one on one and the continued support over the phone.

Rob Allen has been there after the program just as he was when I was there at the training. There have been many questions!! A lot of these where on equipment, chemical brands, logos, vans, setup of equipment and the list goes on. I have chosen to get the Nemesis, by Duane Oxley at Accelerated Chemical Technologies, LLC. Rob has been a big help in many of the decisions made and I feel more confident on each one that has been made because of this avenue of advice and experience.

All in all I would say that the class is very well worth the effort and expense. I have taken away for more that I felt I would get. There was a lot to learn, but it is the one on one that made it all stick in my head. Easy to ask questions when you are the only one in the class!!


Would I change anything? Yes, I would have Rob or one of his crew stay and work with me in Charleston, SC for a week! Now that would be great!

Ps. I jumped on this before ir had the "Spiffy" name!! It was offer to another and I just invited myself!

Why was this Mentor Program not available in Australia when i was starting out. Congratulations Joseph on choosing such a professional entry into the cleaning industry. With that Program and the ongoing support from Rob and the Truck Mount Forum there is no limit to what you can now achieve.

Well Done

Mick

Thanks

I pick up my Nemesis 2545 from Duane Oxley on the 26 of Sep. Then it is to hit the ground running.

There is no mistaking that the program has helped me make more informed decision. I must also give lots of credit to Duane - I have had (and still do) so many questions and then I do not always understand the answer!!!!!!! Duane has been a big help as well.

I am posting the "Development of a Truck Mount" here on TMF. Look for the post. All input is Appreciated.

Good show guys . I was organizing one on the old clean board , but some guys were a little reluctant to share - great idea and it definately helps to raise the bar.

ok if you say so..

We and others have had mentering programs for years, Main difference was they didn't cost the guy nothing. During the past 28 years we have done a few to cleaners in our area also. Our Local trade org CCINW has also done this for years at no charge with its members.

It takes a lot for a guy to give up a day of his work to work for free with another cleaning company who is gaining his labor for free. Yes he is a bit slower, but, a O-O student willing and wanting to learn is so much better than one being sent by an employer to learn how to do new and different things. I have had the privilage to train both kinds.

Difference is, this is sooooo much more then just a ride along!
Try reading what a new guy gets again, you, are no one else has ever offered, or has been able to offer, such an all "inclusive" program!


This Offer Is Smoken>>>>>>>>>

Cheers, AL

Mr. Slide... Just curious, as to what specifically you find in this offer that has never been done before?
Not that this is a bad idea, but what is it that makes it so appealing to you...and, are you signed up yet?

I sorry, but I'm way to busy to answer,
"The Just curious ramblings of your mind"
No time for foolish controversy!

Very easy to see through your questions!



Cheers, AL

Personally i believe Joseph Whatley covered what is so different on the first page.
Or am i missing something?

Mick

So basically your saying you are to busy to give an intelligent answer?

I do feel a Mentoring program has merit, I am just missing what makes this one so much better than any other ever offered...(Mr. Slide how many Mentoring programs have you participated or been involved in?) I read very carefully every post here and do not see how mentoring like this is so "revolutionary".
The transparent part must be what you see that I do not, hence my question (DUH).
Sorry if you are too busy to formulate your "feelings" into a cognitive answer that is direct and to the point and not vague and pointing to other answers that allude to the differences.
It seems if you cannot give a definitive and direct answer you are at best blowing smoke IMHO.
