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.

Ung Metropole sa Valencia Hills New Mla ang lakas sobra. Napadaan lang kami kanina on the way kasi to James Cooper. Hanep kawawa ung nagiisang babae dun sya na naiwan, hehehe mukhang malakas pano ilang building din ung Valencia Hills karamihan tamad siguro hehehe

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?

**wildthing** · June 21st, 2007 10:13 PM

yan ang hindi ko naitanong duon sa tropa ko...pero palagay ko YES....part of the risk of the biz

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
