Dry cleaning franchises produce more millionaires than any other franchise—fact or fiction?

HANOVER, MA …

Not McDonalds. Not Burger King. Not Hilton Hotels. Dry cleaning franchises produce the largest number of millionaires according to many franchise experts. Just don’t ask anybody to prove it.

One of those experts, Franchise King® Joel Libava, in a recent blog, cited that very “fact” in explaining why Proctor & Gamble were getting into the dry cleaning franchise business. Yet even the Franchise King® could not find data to support the millionaire claim, one Libava’s father, a franchise expert in his own right, often made when speaking to prospective franchise buyers.

“Without knowing the finances of dry cleaning owners for other franchises, I can only guess at the accuracy of that statement,” said Kevin Dubois, CEO of Lapels Dry Cleaning, an environmentally friendly dry cleaning franchise with more than 40 locations nationwide. “What I can offer is that with the right location and right franchisor, dry cleaning franchises are in a better position for success than entrepreneurs starting a dry cleaning business on their own.”

Dubois cites several reasons why dry cleaning franchise owners are primed for success:

  • No shortage of dirty clothes – According to U.S. News & World Report, thousands of garments are labeled “Dry Clean Only”, creating an industry estimated to generate $6 to $7 billion a year.
  • Reasonable franchise fee and royalties – Compared to other millionaire-generating franchises like McDonalds, Burger King, the startup fees to open a Lapels Franchise are significantly less expensive.  The typical franchise fee is 15,000 to 25,000 and the total investment ranges from $70,000 to $450,000.
  • No previous dry cleaning experience required – A good franchise system enables new franchise owners to succeed practically from day one. If you can learn, you can own a dry cleaning franchise. Dubois says Lapels franchise owners range from nuclear engineers to recent immigrants.
  • Plant facility – By owning a franchise, a franchisee can get the benefits of working with a large company and cleaning laundry at a centralized facility.  Smaller independent facilities often have trouble affording new equipment, complying with government regulations and being as efficient as large organizations. At home pick up is another way some dry cleaners have been able to expand business, and some work exclusively with at home pick up.
  • Proven franchise system – The benefits of franchising stand out in the dry cleaning business. Whether it’s marketing, accounting, training, etc., the franchise owner, for the most part, can follow the franchisor’s guidelines and be successful.

“Obviously, we are a little biased, but a dry cleaning franchise presents so many advantages, in addition to having a built-in market, that it is difficult not to believe it when franchise experts say there are more millionaires made from dry cleaning franchises than any other franchises,” said Dubois. “I know from our perspective, we continue to grow and add new franchise owners as well as current Lapels owners adding new locations. Are they currently or soon-to-be millionaires? We sure hope so.”

Lapels has pioneered its eco-friendly dry cleaning experience for the past 10 years.  Using the latest technology in equipment and cleaning solution, Lapels is one of the few dry cleaners around to be able to boast that there is no hazardous waste in their process. Their environmentally-friendly cleaning process has no odor and is gentler on clothes, thus lengthening the life of clothes. At Lapels you can see, feel and smell the difference.

Lapels customers are greeted to a warm and inviting reception area, with friendly customer service representatives, and a full service on-site tailor.

Lapels offers it’s customers Automatic Rewards earning them credit towards free dry cleaning for every dollar they spend, Loyalty Programs, a VIP Program which eliminates the need to wait in line and the use of a 24 Hour Drop Off Service. Same day service is also available with pick-up after 5 pm.

VoiceNation Offers Insight on Fundamental Component to Business Continuity Plan

September is National Preparedness Month and VoiceNation, a preferred call center partner for thousands of businesses nationwide, recently detailed the importance of having a business continuity plan in place during the unlikely event of a disaster, occasional outage or simple disruption.

When a business experiences a breakdown, it can be costly. Lost revenue, unhappy customers and unexpected expenses equals reduced profits. “A business continuity plan, or disaster recovery solution, is similar to an insurance policy,” explains Jay Reeder, President of VoiceNation. “It is critical that businesses of all sizes implement a solution to continue and protect your business when all else fails.”

In efforts to bring attention to National Preparedness Month, VoiceNation conducted a new survey that found 82 percent of businesses do not have a business continuity plan or procedures in place. “This is a big risk factor for any company susceptible to lost business due to a common outage,” says Mr. Reeder. Correspondingly, 82 percent of businesses agreed that if their entire communication system (phone/internet/website/data/email) were to go down for one week, they would lose a significant amount of business. Out of these most common forms of business communications, the survey revealed phone service is the most pivotal function for a small business to continue operating.

In VoiceNation’s findings, it was also evident that over 62 percent of business owners are not aware of how inexpensive a disaster recovery solution costs to ensure phone lines and calls never go unanswered during a disaster. In light of this, for less than 50 dollars a month, VoiceNation can provide a 24 hour emergency call center solution to field calls. Disaster recovery solutions include receptionist services, call forwarding, emergency dispatch, voicemail services, and more. Because outages and disasters are unforeseen, VoiceNation’s instant activation enables business owners to set up their backup phone solution within minutes.

VoiceNation is America’s telecommunications leader in virtual PBX, voicemail, and innovative live answering solutions. Named “Top Provider in Industry” by PC World, VoiceNation provides live answering services and call center solutions utilizing the latest in proprietary technology to deliver high quality call answering services at the lowest cost to their customers.

Voice4Nations “Pays It Forward” for World Humanitarian Day

In honor of World Humanitarian Day and all that it stands for as a global celebration of people helping people, Voice4Nations launched an ambitious “Pay It Forward” campaign.

Voice4Nations.org is the non-profit outreach of virtual phone service company VoiceNation, America’s telecommunications leader in virtual PBX, voicemail, and innovative live answering solutions.

Voice4Nations encouraged and provided each volunteer an opportunity to do something nice for someone else as a random act of kindness. Each volunteer came up with a creative way to pay it forward and positively impacted the life of someone else in the local community when they least expected it.

The Voice4Nations team found many ways to pay it forward, such as providing lawn maintenance to elders, buying shoes for children in need, giving money directly to a homeless person, purchasing gasoline so an unemployed neighbor could get to a job interview, and helped support a family’s monthly daycare bill.

“This was a special opportunity for our team, but the ultimate reward was knowing we made a difference, big or small, in the life of a perfect stranger. It’s our hope that the person on the receiving end will ‘pay it forward’ as well, and together, we can make the world a better place for those in it,” noted Jay Reeder, founder of Voice4Nations.

To read more about Voice4Nations and the organizations’ experience “paying it forward”, visit http://www.voice4nations.org/content/pay-it-forward-world-humanitarian-day-campaign.

About Voice4Nations
A new generation of Voice4Nations.org website has been launched to address the company’s three key initiatives: homelessness, the world’s water crisis and bullying prevention.

Voice4Nations, the non-profit outreach of VoiceNation, acts as a voice for the nations – a voice for those who can’t speak for themselves, like the 50 percent of all children who live in poverty. Voice4Nations’ goal is to create awareness, encourage people to make a difference, and connect them with successful organizations where they can make a contribution directly funding the need.
