Opportunity For Women

While carpet cleaning has not traditionally been perceived as a way for a woman to start her own business, with the Challenger it becomes an attractive option to consider. For several reasons. 

First, doing this kind of work usually required heavy and cumbersome equipment, some of it so large that is was required to be "truck-mounted". What is marketed as "steam" cleaning involves maneuvering a long and very hot tool called a wand which is worked back and forth over the carpeted area to be cleaned. Ask anyone who has done this kind of work all day, every day and they'll tell it really is "grunt" work.

Second, steam cleaning of carpets requires a heavy capital investment. Some people spend up to $30 - $40,000 for their new truck-mount and all of its associated specialty equipment. If they instead purchase it used, it means that it may or may not still be in sound mechanical condition. If you're not inclined to be something akin to an auto mechanic, you definitely don't want to be the owner of a regularly-used truck-mounted carpet cleaning system. 

Third, carpet cleaning has traditionally used a slew of harsh, smelly cleaning chemicals, many of which contain ingredients believed to cause cancer.

Fourth, in the market for residential carpet cleaning services, at least 90% of the customers calling you are women. The vast majority of them would prefer to have a woman in their home doing this work than a man they don't know. And increasingly, in the commercial market, women are showing up in positions such as Executive Housekeeper, Facility Manager, and Hotel General Manager. Women like these know that women pay more attention to detail than men.

If you are using the Drysdale's/Challenger approach to cleaning carpets, with an initial investment of under $2000, you will have a tool that is light, highly maneuverable, yet which accomplishes its tasks more effectively than heavy and cumbersome competing methods. 

Your machine is technologically sophisticated, yet rugged and durable enough to run for hours a day, all year long, without bothering you for maintenance and repairs. 

Instead of you and your customers being inflicted with the usual possibly toxic cleaning chemicals, your product is all-natural, vegetable-based, and completely odorless. 

And as pointed out above, your being a woman will make most of your customers more inclined to hire you over a competitor, due to the all-important comfort factor. 

All this in addition to being able to generate earnings in the high 2 figure, sometimes even over 3 figures per hour makes cleaning carpets using the Drysdale's/Challenger method an option you should not ignore.
