Twenty hours of video and coursework covering how to clean every material you will meet, how to dry it the right way, how to lay out a shop, how to work safely, and how to go get customers. The objection we hear most is "I'm not a salesperson." Good. Neither were most of the people running successful operations today.
Most people come in for the first one and finish all four, usually in that order. They stay open to you, so when you hire somebody two years from now, you send them through the same training instead of teaching it yourself.
The core course. Every blind type and every material, what solution goes with what, how long it sits in the tank, and how to dry verticals, honeycombs and other fabric materials the right way.
Start here. Everything else builds on it.
How to get the work without paying for ads. Advertising costs you money; marketing costs you time. You learn to set up dry cleaners as drop-off centers and to work alongside janitorial companies, the two plays that bring in new work every day.
The course people tell us they wish they had taken first.
Where the machine goes, where the drying goes, how the water and the power get there, and how blinds move through the space without crossing paths. A good layout lets you clean and dry about 100 blinds a day, even in a one-car garage.
Take it before you build.
One out of every six blinds that comes to you needs a repair, and every repair adds to the ticket. Restringing, ladder replacement, headrail work, and what to charge for it.
The fastest add-on to your average ticket.
The courses do not expire and they do not lock after a month. Go back to the drying lesson the night before your first commercial job, three years from now, at eleven o'clock. It will be there.
Whether you have one employee or a hundred, they go through the same training you did. You are not standing over somebody's shoulder repeating yourself, and everyone in your shop learns it the same way.
We work with the major blind manufacturers. They send us new textiles, we work out how to clean them, and we report back. What you are learning is the current answer.
The training does not replace the phone. If a customer hands you something you have never seen, call us. Thirty-seven years means we have almost certainly cleaned it before. That is why the number is on every page.
Watching somebody clean a blind and cleaning one yourself are two different things. Most people do both.
Three daysOne company at a time. Buffalo, NY or the Charlotte, NC area.
Three days with a certified trainer and your hands actually in the tank. You learn on our blinds, with a trainer right beside you, which is the whole point of doing it with us.
