Neighborhood Chem-Dry Celebrates One Year Anniversary!

Neighborhood Chem-Dry marks its one year anniversary.  As the owner of Neighborhood Chem-Dry I would like to say thank you to friends, family and neighbors for your support.  Thank you for letting me come into your homes and hone my carpet, rug, and upholstery cleaning skills.  Thank you for the referrals!  Referrals are a very important part of growing a business, and I highly value every referral I receive.

This has definitely been a year of learning.  I have spent much of the year spending many hours ensuring that my skills are the best they can be to qualify as a carpet, rug, and upholstery cleaning expert.  The Chem-Dry videos and on-line learning opportunities are extensive, and I take advantage of as many as possible. I attended a wonderful convention in Las Vegas and enjoyed top-notch speakers and seminars.  I have also had to obtain business operating skills and expertise, setting up my franchise, and putting things together to operate Neighborhood Chem-Dry.  I continue to learn as much as I can about advertising and marketing.  I feel that advertising and marketing are the biggest challenges as a new business owner.  I hope that by this time next year I will be an advertising and marketing expert and can share my knowledge with other small business owners.  I look forward to achieving a loyal customer base to ensure Neighborhood Chem-Dry's success.

I am very grateful for the opportunity of owning my own business has given me to give back to the community and serve others.  It has been a pleasure to sponsor an "Earth Day" art contest at Bowie Elementary, and provide school supplies to needy students.  I'm grateful for the opportunity to conduct fundraisers for Cancer awareness in honor my parents, as our family has had to fight a courageous battle with this disease.  I was happy to donate carpet cleaning to my daughter’s dance studio, Royale Ballet.

I am also grateful for the opportunity that owning Neighborhood Chem-Dry has given me to get to better know the community I live in and meet so many friendly and interesting people.  I have been able to clean carpets in hotel ballrooms,  penthouses in downtown Dallas,  have met a former Dallas Cowboys player, and have been in many wonderful homes in Dallas, Plano, Allen, and Coppell.  I  love living in Dallas, TX were everyone is so friendly and welcoming.

Thank you again for your ongoing support for me, my family, and our business.

Sincerely,

Mark J Whitworth
Owner of Neighborhood Chem-Dry
