It helps businesses of every size market better, quote clearer‌ and book more! The developers of this product still run their own carpet cleaning company and, with over twenty five years in the industry, they know the challenges of running a successful business. That's why they developed this software‌ to make it systemised and easier.
They've grown and streamlined their own carpet cleaning business into a multi-van operation with admin staff by using the marketing tools built into the software. Other carpet cleaners could see what a difference it had made to the developers' carpet cleaning business (especially in terms of an increase in their return on advertising spend and reduced administration) and, after repeated requests from those cleaners, in 2006 a decision was made to further develop the software and make it available to others within the same industry. Now, with hundreds of users, there is an edition to suit every size of business, from owner/operators through to multi-van operations with admin office support staff. So, if you want to free up time by reducing and streamlining your administration, and want more money by marketing more effectively, this could be the solution for you.

John has recently created his own loom and is using it to weave carpet utilising traditional weaving methods. This project has now become an integral part of his current work with Kirsty's Kids. At the Carnival this year John will be displaying his loom, so if you are interested in learning how to hand-knot your own rugs with your own handmade loom (and John's current work with Kirsty's Kids), pop along to their stand and have a chat.

massive increase in wooden flooring during the boom years. The company was formed using experience gained in the Galway region of Ireland by Terry with his previous company, Airc Flooring, who specialised in the sales, fitting and finishing of wooden flooring. The decision to go floor sanding only was made when the benefits of dust free machinery became obvious and by marketing this idea the company grew to thirteen outlets across Ireland. In 2011 Ultimate Floor Sanding entered the UK market using an Affiliate network strategy, recruiting and training existing floor maintenance experts in floor sanding and then going on to promote and support them with the aid of a leading German supplier of machines and floor finishing products. Their UK operation is now larger than the Irish one but they still have territories available and are keen to meet anyone who thinks they may like to add floor sanding to their existing business.
