Harry Kafka, author of Cleaning Service Client-Acquisition System (CSCAS)

Harry Kafka has a career in marketing and advertising spanning more than three decades. Harry was first attracted to advertising and worked in a governmental tourist office as the marketing in charge in Stockholm Sweden in the 70's, them moving to his native Finland where he engaged in various marketing and advertising related projects with tourism and travel. In the beginning of 80's, Harry Kafka worked as the advertising and marketing director of a Finnish film importer / distributor, creating local advertising for various 35 millimetre movies.

In the 90's, Harry Kafka started his own advertising agency, expanding it to a 12-man team. During the decade Harry worked as a management consultant, a lecturer and finally as a marketing consultant from 1996 onwards to present day, albeit today Harry lives in United Kingdom since 2001. All in all, Harry Kafka has lived in six countries and speaks four languages.

In his work, Harry Kafka found that specific industries really require a completely tailored approach in their marketing. Generalised negative conceptions within the clientele of an industry needed to be handled spot-on... and specific requirements, wishes and complaints had to be satisfied with solutions tailored to the industry itself alone.

Harry Kafka had his first encounter with contract cleaning in 1994 when he was asked to create a marketing system for a cleaning franchise. Since then, Harry Kafka has served countless contract cleaning and janitorial service companies with his specialised marketing tools, consulting and seminars.

The Cleaning Service Client-Acquisition System is one of its kind in the world. With more than 2,400 pages of tools, instructions and hands-on troubleshooting, it is the only system that has been tested and proven in use AND bases not on theory but practical tools one can start to use immediately.

Harry is married and has two daughters. His interests involve marketing, literature and golf.

Harry Kafka is available for lectures and seminars on a variety of subjects concerning contract cleaning services and their marketing. There are several persons in the world named Harry Kafka, so to find this one, please log onto www.cleaningservicemarketing.com
