Laundromats and laundry rooms are a necessity, and they’ve been a staple in people’s lives since the 1800’s. Many things have changed since then, but people’s dependence on the great service of their local laundry hasn’t.

There are many ways you can transform your laundry from a necessity into a profitable asset, improving your business and keeping your customers satisfied and happy.

Below are three simple steps you can take toward increasing your profit.

Utilise Special Promotions

There is almost no limit to the special promotions you could potentially run in your laundry. Whether it’s time-sensitive promotions that offer a discount every day, driving more business to you during what would normally be a quieter period, or offering discounts to a certain group of people on certain days, there are plenty of ways you can increase your profit and your customer base.

Targeting discounts toward certain groups, such as seniors, young mums, or university students is a great way to not only increase your business during a specific time but also to spread the word about your business to others. When it comes to a service as important as laundry, word-of-mouth is one of the best ways to improve your local business.

If you make the switch to card-reader machines (rather than cash and coin), promotions are even EASIER to run! You can automate loyalty programs, offer discounts during certain times of day, offer % off a dryer fee – the sky’s the limit!

Keep Your Machines Maintained

When asked the question ‘would you rather pay a bit of money now or a lot of money later?’, the answer is a no-brainer. If you had the opportunity to purchase something for $100 one day and $500 the next, you would snap up the $100 offer in a second. The situation is much the same when it comes to keeping your machines maintained, even when there may be no obvious problems that need solving.

How often you have your machines inspected by a certified technician is at your discretion, but keep in mind that regular checks can save your hundreds, or even thousands, of dollars in the future.

An early inspection that catches a small tear in a piece of tubing will likely cost significantly less to fix than a leak that flooded your shop and rendered one or more of your machines out of service until they could be fully repaired, which is why it pays to keep your machines in tip-top condition.

Go Green – Save on Water and Energy Costs

While there are some initial setup costs involved with making the move to green water and energy in your laundry, it won’t be long before you start reaping the benefits.

Not only will switching to more eco-friendly washing machines save you money in the long run by cutting your energy costs, you’re also setting yourself apart from other laundromats in the area. Many environmentally-conscious people will actively seek out services that are dedicated to reducing their impact on the environment, potentially opening you up to an entirely new client base.

Pay attention to the water and energy consumption of the equipment you buy, search for efficient products, update your laundry with the latest machines, and keep your existing https://www.viagrapascherfr.com/achat-sildenafil-pfizer-tapasztalatok/ machines in good shape to save a bundle on those big water and energy costs!

Upgrading from a Top Load washing machine to a Front Load washer can save over 100 Litres of water each and every cycle.
