I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about whether or not to speak up about this, but ultimately, I believe transparency and honesty are too important to stay silent.
When we first brought Twinkle Time Cleaning to this town, we knew we had to work hard to build our reputation from the ground up. To the 90% of you who have welcomed us, supported us, and opened your homes and businesses to us, Thank you. Your kindness means the world to us, and we are incredibly proud to serve you.
Unfortunately, there is a small handful of individuals who have made it clear they would love to see us fail. I want to be entirely clear, We are not going anywhere. No matter the obstacles thrown our way. We are here to stay.
With that being said, I need to address a disheartening situation. At the beginning of spring, we invested over $300 into service signs to market our business. We do this every year, we were incredibly mindful of where we placed them. We only put them on camp roads, nailed securely alongside other local service and real estate signs, ensuring we were being entirely respectful of the area. We only put them alongside other service signs. Every single one of our signs has been deliberately taken down. Furthermore, we have also discovered that our business cards are being systematically removed from community bulletin boards and local stores around town. We will keep refilling them. If you see anyone removing them please contact us.
This isn’t an accident its a petty effort to hurt our business. To whoever is doing this, If you have an issue with me or my company, I encourage you to be mature enough to call the number on those signs and speak with me directly. There is absolutely no reason to destroy our property or tamper with our marketing materials.
We love this community. We sponsor local events, we donate free cleanings to neighbors in need, and we do everything in our power to give back, even when as a small business our resources are very tight.
If your goal was to tear us down or stop us from succeeding, I want you to know you are failing miserably. For every sign that is pulled down and every business card that is taken, we will replace them.
Thank you again to our amazing clients and neighbors who continue to stand by us. We appreciate you more than words can say, and we will continue to show up for you every single day with integrity, passion, and excellence.
With gratitude,
Elizabeth Pio
Owner, Twinkle Time Cleaning
