How
to avoid making costly carpet buying mistakes
Many homeowners get ripped-off when buying new
Carpet because they don't know what they're doing and don't have access to all the facts.
What's the underlying issue here? Why do so many
consumers select the wrong Carpet, pay way too much and end up unhappy with
their new carpet?
It's because it's very difficult for
consumers to find honest, accurate and complete carpet information. Many
homeowners make the costly mistake of trusting the
advice of inexperienced or unscrupulous Carpet salespeople. That's a costly mistake
because most Carpet salespeople don't have sufficient knowledge or experience with the products they
sell. If you are in the market for new carpet, don't let any Carpet
salesperson make your Carpet Choices for you. You need to make your own
choice based on
your needs, goals, lifestyle and budget.
Sadly, most Carpet
salespeople have limited access to complete and accurate carpet information. Their
limited carpet knowledge often comes from a manufacturer's brochure, the
internet or an outdated
sales training video. Most Carpet salespeople are hired due to their SALES
EXPERIENCE, not because of their CARPET KNOWLEDGE. In order to get hired they
need to be good at selling,
but that doesn't mean they are any good at helping you choose your new carpet wisely.
Carpet manufacturers love to create flashy posters, banners,
signs and displays to promote their new and improved product lines and they are quick to point out all the good qualities
about their products. But they fail to mention any of the negative
aspects or qualities about their
products. Remember, they are only in business to make money and everything
they do is solely designed to increase their profits. They may say or do
whatever it takes to convince you to buy their products whether it is a good choice
for you or not.
Here's
a Question for You.
If you were thinking about buying a new
automobile and wanted to know
if you were making a good choice, who do you think could offer the most honest
and complete information about the vehicle in question?
A. The
Auto Manufacturer
The
auto
manufacturer's brochure would show great photos and describe all the newest features
and engine and
mechanical specifications.
B. The
Auto Salesperson
The
auto
salesperson could show you how to operate all the newest equipment and take
you for a test drive.
C. The Auto Mechanic
But
the Auto Mechanic would be able to tell you about the vehicle's service
history, any common problems and consumer complaints. They may also know if
previous buyers have been happy with the quality and performance of the
car.
So when
buying new CARPET, don't you
want the advice of someone who has had many years of "hands-on"
experience?
You want someone to tell you how well it performs, how long it
will last, if there are any common problems or consumer complaints and how to take proper care
of it.
So
who should YOU trust when buying new carpet?
A. The
Carpet Manufacturer
B. The
Carpet Salesperson
C. The
Carpet Mechanic
So you
see, the experienced Carpet Mechanic is the one person who is qualified
to give you the most complete and honest
product information.
That's me. I am the experienced Carpet
"Mechanic" who's advice you should trust. I don't sell carpet anymore and I don't manufacture it. But I have spent over
30 years selling, installing, repairing,
researching
and learning virtually everything about carpets of all types, grades and styles. I
know carpet inside and out.
I know how carpets are made and I know how long they will
last in a given situation. I've installed tens of thousands of yards of carpet
and flooring and have worked with over 20 different carpet retailers. I've witnessed just
about every carpet gimmick, carpet scam, carpet rip-off and sneaky carpet trick
in the book.
This is why I am uniquely qualified to author the most popular and
most valuable Carpet Buying Guide on the planet. I am the expert carpet mechanic who's
opinion and advise you should trust!
It's
all the "untold" negative qualities of a particular carpet that consumers need to know about in order to make
wise choices. For example, Polyester is one of the softest fibers used to make
carpets today. It has the most vibrant colors and it resists stains and cleans easily. That's what the
manufacturer's brochure says. But what are the negative qualities of polyester
carpets? It mats down in a hurry. They don't mention that in their brochure and
the untrained carpet salesperson won't mention it either.
So take my word for it,
don't blindly trust any product information derived from Carpet brochures, Carpet
advertisements, carpet websites or Carpet salespeople. You need to do your own homework
in
order to make wise choices for yourself. You must be sure to buy a carpet that is designed to meet your needs,
goals and lifestyle. Take
