    a brod of mine have this negosyo before he went abroad... his first concern was target market - sa UPLB kami lumaki (college) and we knew the big demand ng palaba sa mga dormers... this was his target market. When i interviewed him nuon, this were his concerns.

    sa household, maliit ang biz potential unlike sa studyante/dormers.

    he started with a pair of washing and drying unit and quick planstsahan - hindi ubra yung mumurahin (unfortunately) kasi madali itong bumigay.

    you don't need the very big capacity load either, kasi most of the time you don't mix damit of one client with another (for ease of segregation).

    yung pamplansta, hindi na yata uso yung korteng "kabayo" ng plansta...this was the fastest pamplantsa.

    ROI about 2 years... if you have regular client base.

    P1M ang franchise fee ng Metropole.

    Inclusive of all the equipments. The machines are re-conditioned, but are the heavy duty types, exactly like those used in the US.

    Kaya daw ROI in 1 year, pag malakas.

    halos tig P25K each ang washer and drier.

    so hindi lalayo sa P100k ang start-up if you don't do franchasing and want to start small.

    pero target market related talaga to really earn...kasi lately nasa P25/kg lang ang palaba (cheapest)

    25k mahal pala per hardware

    tubig + machine depreciation cost pa pala tapos matrabaho pa. potentially disgruntled emps

    what happens if the labandera accidentally ruins signature clothes?

    babayarin din ba ng laundry shop yun cost nun?

    when I was planning noon sa laundry biz. ayaw ko targetin mga residential kasi bukod sa cutthroat na, sobra dami customer na mahirap i-please

    ang maganda laundry biz eh yun nag-specialize sa resto,sa hotel (motel), gym, caterers etc. continuous ang towels, bedsheets, tablecovers, saka yun nilalagay mo sa hips mo pag kakain na

    How about yung elect. consumption? Considering na heavy duty yung mga washing machines, water pump at may dryers pa, di ang laki ng elect. bills nito. Then yung sa tubig pa.

    binabayaran po ang mga branded clothes pag nasira ng labandera, minsan po napapakiusapan ang customer kung pwede muna i repair then i buy off nila kung pwede sa kanila otherwise, papalitan or babayaran.

    mahirap i please ang residential (or so called walk-in customers) pero mas maganda ang profit sa mga ito compared kung meron kang accounts sa hotel, salon etc dahil dito mas matindi ang competition dahil pababaan kayo ng quote and minsan napupulitika pa sa loob.

    part owner lang po ako ng laundry, most of the legwork and running the business yung partner ko po ang nakasalang.

    true. mas maige kung ikaw ang bantay dahil based sa experience namin, nakukupitan na pala kami ng sales buti naagapan agad, ayun tinangal lahat ng empleyado at re hire ulit.
