This isn’t your average laundromat tale. It’s the story of how Blake and Noah, two real estate investors in a tiny town (population: under 1,000!), turned a struggling laundry business into a laundry pickup and delivery success story, generating 5 figures a month in just 5 months. Their secret? Smart marketing and a relentless focus on customer service.
Launching a Laundry Pickup and Delivery Service
Blake and Noah weren’t laundry experts. They were real estate guys who saw potential in a neglected laundromat. After a remodel, they added wash-and-fold. But their real turning of the tide was launching laundry pickup and delivery from the start, inspired by laundry guru Matt Simmons (check out his website: Curbside Laundries).
Thinking Outside the (Small) Town
Knowing their town’s limited customer base, Blake and Noah targeted nearby Athens (population: 125,000). They strategically designed their laundry pickup and delivery service to cater to this larger market.
