Question About Dirty Collar, Stubborn Dirt On Pocket Slits

Published on August 10, 2011 by in Laundry Tips and Suggestions

A student texted me, what to do with a stubborn dirt on collars? He said they brush it manual.

A customer also came to our shop the other day, holding a shirt he said wasn’t cleaned. It appeared it has also make up foundation stain that needs special handling

What to do with such cases?

What we do is treat them with special attention. That is hand wash, spotting and wash them separately and individually. This process would take much time of staff and therefore priced at a premium.
null
The customer that walked in our shop said “The dirt wasn’t removed.” I replied, “Sir, you see we laundry your clothes thru machines, so that’s most likely not just soiled, it needs handwashing for the stubborn dirt to be removed.” the customer looked at me and nodded in agreement. He handed me the item at the same time asked ” How much would that be?”

So you see, you don’t have to always give in to complaints and free requests. Sometimes all we need to do is explain in a nice way. ;)

Water Refilling Station As Complementing Business With Laundry

Published on July 27, 2011 by in Laundry Tips and Suggestions


Allan of Cebu Said,July 24th, 2011 @10:47 am  
When will the next seminar in cebu be? intrested po ako to join the bandwagon dahil sa tips n tricks of this blog. I currently have a water refilling station with one R.O. membrane. And if I have to add a laundry shop beside it, I’m planning to add another membrane for the waste water for the laundry (just to make sure water would be soft for the clothes). Dahil sa libre na ang tubig, I can afford to upgrade my system to accommodate a need for clean soft water pra sa laundry. thnx.


Hi Allan of Cebu,

Next seminar in Cebu is on September 24, 2011. Nice of you to read this blog and to know that you have been motivated by simply reading on the tips and suggestions, inspires me to share more.. Your knowledge doesn’t stop there though, you still have to learn a lot of things. Knowing that you have your own water filling station, let me agree that it is a good partner with laundry shop. it is a complementing business partner actually. The way you explained the mechanics of the waste water being used in laundry business, I must admit you know your business well.
good luck and hoping you push thru with your plans.

LIVE. LOVE. SHARE.

Start up Question And Answers

Published on July 27, 2011 by in Laundry Tips and Suggestions


shankief Said,July 23rd, 2011 @11:08 pm 


Hi! When will be the next seminar? Next seminar is on August 27,2011. Last Saturday of the month.

We’d like to start a laundry biz and it will be our first business.
Hope you can answer some of our inquiries below

1) Pls advise what are the legal permits needed. How long will it take to process the application of permits?

    Legal permits: same as all the businesses we set up,

  • Business name
  • Barangay clearance
  • Mayor’s Permit
  • BIR Permit

    • Depends on your area, how long they would process your application.

    2) Do we apply for permit first prior to setting up the laundry location or the permit will follow?

      Set up the laundry first.

    3) What is the ideal area size for a starter?

      20 to 30 sq.m will do.

    4) What do you recommend – generic or branded detergents? powder or liquid detergent?

      I use branded detergent, in powder form.

    5) The owner of the establisment informed us that the water and electric are “submetered”. Do we need to apply for separate meter? Is this the responsiblity or the tenant?

      Some of my business locations have their own water and electric meter, some don’t. It all depends on you. But I’d prefer having my own.

    6) How much is the commercial rate of electric per kph?

      You can check that on your own water and electric billing.

    Thank you very much!

      You’re most welcome. Happy to be of help.

    Pick Up And Deliver Concerns, Weighing Scale

    Published on June 27, 2011 by in Laundry Tips and Suggestions

    Submitted on 2011/06/26 at 1:13pm

    hi ms. monette
    gud day po nag attend po ako ng seminar nyo last may 28, and were planning to put the laundry in a condominium ok lang po ba na magprice kmi ng 30/kl.

      Ok lang, mas mataas mas maganda. Kung kayo lang ang laundry shop dun sa area at maganda ang service nyo, di papansinin ang maliit na diperensya sa presyo.

    and pano po ba kung mag pick up and deliver kami kailangan po ba na magdala kami ng timbangan pagpick up ng laundry kc po ang problem ko is magkakahiwalay yun mga building and wala po silang service elevator kya po mahihirapan yun tao ko na magdala ng timbangan, ano po kya ang magandang gawing kc po may laundry po sa labas ng condo bka po pag di kmi pumarehas ng price sa kanila eh dun sila magpalaba,

      Sa shop namin, nagdadala kami ng timbangan tuwing magpi pick up kami. Rain or shine. With service elevator or wala. What I’m trying to say is, if it’s gonna do good to your business, why not? Kung mahihirapan ang staff, find someone who is capable na hindi mahihirapan.

    at ska may marefer po kyo na mag install ng pipeping sa shop namin kc wala po kc kmi idea kung kya po ng ordinary na karpentero yun work baka po kc magkaproblema kung basta basta lang namin ipakabit kung kanikanino sana po matulungan nyo ko sa concern ko. thanks and good day

      Kung san kayo kukuha ng LPG nyo, dun kayo magpagawa ng gas piping. Sa mga water line naman kung sinong supplier nyo sa machines, sila mag recommend sa inyo kung anong lay out at piping ang dapat. Libre lang sa supplier nyo yun, ask them to send a technician to your area.
      GOOD LUCK!
