craigslist ad in my area. anyone else?
Permalink  
 


He's not listing in my area yet but I've seen his posts/messages on another site(roof cleaning). He is knowledgeable when it comes to roof cleaning and has come up with a accumulator tank that works with our low pressure systems. I hope he doesn't advertise down this way. Too much info for homeowners to see.

Just stumbled upon a craigslist ad in my area that caught me by surprise.  It looks like they are looking to get me all set up, teach me everything I need to know, and supply sample literature for $325.  

http://peoria.craigslist.org/bfs/3403881523.html

This guy listing anything in your areas?

I don't know how many takers he will get but it's not a bad idea. I like how high his prices are for the buffalo area, atleast thats a positive out of it.

Mike,

Just got off the phone with him. From what I understand he's selling this rig to step up to large bucket truck. He's assured me he will not be posting his ads in areas that Dirty Dan, Barry Landis and I service. I advised him that I thought his consulting fee was low.

 No Mike. He pulled the pics from a promotional post on another forum. I didn't know anything about it until he made a post about his new trailer getting wrapped. He didn't even crop out the faces of my ground guys. I didn't pursue it anymore than letting him know they were my pics, and he should of asked first.

I know I'll get criticism for this...

I've done some research on Eric and he's had and has several successful businesses which includes, but not limited to, self storage units and manufacturing and set up of homes(developer of Ridgewood Village). He doesn't need the money for sure. Again, I spoke to him on the phone and he was polite, professional and knowledgeable. Although I don't neccessarily agree with him by announcing on craigslist the start up costs to not only other contractors but to homeowners as well(homeowners never see the additional operating expenses involved in running a business) I do have respect for him. He could have blown me off but he didn't.

Hank, If this guy was in your backyard, would you still respect him? This guy is stupid to put this crap on craigslist. He's just looking for extra income in the winter. It sounds to me like many members on here don't care as long as this guy ( or a bozo like him) isn't in YOUR area.

-- Edited by waxman18324 on Monday 10th of December 2012 08:45:49 AM


 


Bruce,

Yes, I respect him for his character and success in business. Again, I didn't agree with him putting the numbers for everyone to see on craigslist.

Hank


 Hank,

Just like you, he is a member of roofcleaningforums.com. He covers plants, brooms moss off roofs and puts crap on craigslist. I know many members on RCIA are also members of other roof cleaning forums. Would an RCIA member be able to post this garbage on craigslist without getting abuse from other members? NO!


Bruce,

Yes, I'm a member of roofcleaningforums.com. I'm also a member on PWI, Grime Scene, UAMCC, Soft Wash Systems, Pressure Tek's forum, Power Wash Community, Cleaning Talk as well as others. Over the course of the last several years I've posted ads on craigslist and covered a few plants. Does this make me a bad person or poor businessman? No!

I respect the guy for his success and because he respected me and my opinion during the course of our conversation. As I've mentioned I didn't agree with him posting this on craigslist.

Hank

The Old Milwaukee beer can sitting next to the pump makes for a great image.

Obviously he didn't get the memo that real roof cleaners drink Yuengling!

I know that name (vonKramer) from somewhere, have seen home on boards before.

This guy is a joke, and this ad being on craiglist is also a joke. He is 67 years old and just looking to sell out.
