Fortunately another
friend introduced me to Robert Saunders at ALLTEC. Within a couple of
weeks I was cleaning with an ALLTEC AQUA 40. Things were going well, but
not great.
Robert
invited me along to his ALLTEC Extravaganza! - in June 2001. After Robert introduced me to two of the speakers Joe Polish, Tom Hill two of the industry leaders and a number of people
already on his FastTrack™ Programme – I joined immediately.
I
was promised £50,000 a year – some hope!
However, I thought if he could show me how to make just £500 a week I would have been
happy. After all he did offer
a 100% Money Back Guarantee – So I went for it.
In
just one month I was making about £700 a week – this must have been
‘the-time-of-year’ I thought, but every month as I used more of the programme the
money increased.
Other
cleaners I met told me about the ‘Slow-Season’ at the beginning of the
year. Well, I can tell you I
averaged over £900 a week IN MY FIRST SLOW SEASON.
There was not any ‘one’ thing that I was taught that made me successful – it
was putting everything together, the guidance from Robert and the support of all
the guys like Andrew Walker, Mick Conlon, Dave Cox etc…
By
the spring I was averaging just over £1,000 a week – without busting a gut to
get the work. The only problem I
found was with the cleaning – it was too slow!
So
in July 2002 (only 15 months into my new business) I purchased a Steam Way -
SideKick Truck Mount from Robert – just so I could do more work in less
time! Oh and I didn't pay on
lease!
It worked – I’m now able to average £1,457.00 a week in
cleaning ... plus I earn £721.00
on my Maintenance Plans (these people pay me over £6 per metre for my service
- and they love it) per month AND TAKE MORE TIME OFF.
One
of the ‘strange’ things FastTrack™ teaches you is to set goals and enjoy
yourself. “Your Business Should
Fund Your Perfect Lifestyle”.
So now I take time out for myself – and had even planned to purchase a new car
within three years.
In
September I ordered a brand new MGF sports car. It was nice, but not what I really
wanted! One of my wild dreams since
the age of 10 was to own a Porsche 911.
Now – within 18 months of starting my own carpet cleaning business - I own my
very own Porsche 911 SC Cabriolet!
What
else can I say? I would recommend
this to anyone ... except if you live in the Luton area – (only
joking!)
