Hi!!!

I would really like everyone's help. My company has been doing in-home laundry service a little over 10 years and about 2 years ago, we started doing pickups, bringing it back to our laundry facilities, washing and delivering it back to our customer within 48 hours. I have a good base of customers but we would like to take it a step further. I know what neighborhoods I would like to target and have an idea of the kind of marketing I would like to do. I would really appreciate suggestions to see if they are along the same lines I am thinking.

Thanks for your suggestions!!!

Toni

It is great that your company has been in business 10 years. You are in Georgia. O K
To take your business to the next step, you need to develop a Business and marketing Plan.
I am a SCORE Counselor and SCORE is a partner to Bank of America.

Do you have an accountant??, a lawyer?? If I can be of any additional help, please ask.
Good luck, LUCKIEST

Hi,

I am in the process of hiring an accountant. Do not have a lawyer yet.

Thanks for the welcome and I will look at SCORE website now.

Good luck with SCORE. Every business should have an Accountant, A Lawyer and An Insurance Agent.
Sometimes you have to spend money to make monet (but then you can sleep at night)
