Second, how to open a dry cleaner and some precautions for opening a dry cleaner:

1, increase the understanding that dry cleaning is an indispensable work in people's lives, and its development history is not very long, and the market potential is great; But because of its short history, people's understanding of it is still very limited, and there are many misunderstandings; The corresponding laws and regulations are not perfect, and there are many disputes, which cannot be solved reasonably; There is little corresponding theoretical guidance, and there is little related training in China (there is, but very little). Unlike computer training, it can be seen everywhere. The quality of employees is generally not high. It is difficult to ensure that there are no problems and solve new problems according to experience. For a novice who is about to enter the dry cleaning industry, I suggest you know more about dry cleaning and washing, go to the local dry cleaners that have already opened, and get to know the market (laundry price, profit, equipment and consumables cost, number of operators of equipment and consumables, price, etc.). ) to enhance your understanding.

2 preparation of funds to open a shop, don't consider how much money you can earn, first consider how long you can lose. The reason for this is the following：

(1) Dry cleaning can be divided into off-seasons. You can make a lot of money if you manage well in the peak season, and you may lose a lot if you manage badly in the off-season. Generally, you have to prepare the money for opening two or three stores before you can open a store, and the extra money will be used for current expenses and maintenance.

(2) Calculate recurrent expenses such as store rent, industrial and commercial expenses, labor wages, daily consumables, utilities, etc. Bad luck, customer claims may lead to the closure of the store, which should also be psychologically prepared;

(3) No matter in the off-peak season, customers should pay tribute to the opening of the store. It takes time for a new store to gain the recognition of customers, especially the surrounding residents. This time is very difficult, and the number of customers may be small, which requires excellent technology and services and professional knowledge.

(4) With proper management, you can earn more by making new contacts; Otherwise, it seems that there are a lot of customers, sneaking around.

Lose money in the office. How to understand it? Some clothes must be washed, some must be dry-cleaned and some can be dried or washed; If the master is not careful and attentive in this respect, the result will be hard to say.

3. Find a good teacher. Master is always one of the key factors in the operation of dry cleaners. According to my experience, washing and talking should be qualified. Washing clothes includes distinguishing dry cleaning, knowing how to remove stains, and knowing how to master dry cleaning and washing equipment. The level of ironing basically directly reflects the level of the master; Be reasonable, polite and experienced, and leave a good impression on customers; In a word, a boss can't stay in the shop all the time. The host must be able to handle business independently, and his skills and manners must be reliable.

4. Enhance business awareness Dry cleaning started late in China, with imperfect legal system and irregular market. Think more and pay more attention. How do you understand it?

(1) manpower should be streamlined.

(2) all kinds of expenses should be saved (including store rent, salary, etc.). )

(3) Don't discount casually.

(4) Don't mess up the market.

How to choose dry cleaning equipment

With the development of economy and the improvement of living standards, people's demand for laundry is increasing, and laundry has become a huge market in Zhejiang. However, many customers who want to open a laundry have a headache when choosing a dry cleaning machine, fearing that they will not be able to buy satisfactory dry cleaning equipment. Because there are too many dry cleaning equipment on the market, Bonnard headquarters would like to remind customers to pay attention to several points when purchasing.

First, you'd better choose a company with a brand and its own production capacity to cooperate, because even the best dry cleaning equipment may have big or small failures, so choosing a brand equipment is convenient for maintenance, and the equipment is brand-free and affordable. Don't choose it.

Second, you should pay attention to dry cleaning machine steel, such as the new luxury oil dry cleaning machine, which is a hanging dry cleaning machine, and the support point is very critical, otherwise you will make a lot of noise soon after using it.

Third, you should look at the cleanliness, because the cleanliness of clothes mainly depends on the dry cleaning agent, and the cleanliness of dry cleaning agent depends on the filter screen in the washing process, so the filter screen is particularly important. The filter screen and activated carbon in the filter are made of high-quality materials and reasonable proportion, which can make the color of clothes clear. Generally, a good dry cleaning machine must have two rollers and four screens, so that clothes can use different colors flexibly.

Fourth, we should attach importance to the automation function. A good dry cleaning machine adopts a fully automatic computer board control program, and the user can complete all the washing processes at one time by pressing the button. A good frequency converter can improve the speed and oil removal rate and save costs.

You should see the appearance of the dry cleaning machine. The beautiful appearance gives people a feeling of high-grade and gorgeous, so you should observe it carefully when purchasing.

Any equipment has different grades. I hope your investment is the most reasonable, and you can buy satisfactory dry cleaning equipment with little money.

There are strong advantages in investing in dry cleaning.

Expert analysis is also an investment. Why invest in dry cleaning?

Investing in business, of course, is to get the maximum return on investment. Investors are always wandering at the crossroads of choosing jobs, and what industry can truly stabilize profits.

The profit margin of dry cleaners is extremely high, and even the average gross profit margin is as high as 80%! ! ! This is in contrast to 15% in the retail industry and 30% in the catering industry. I don't know how many times better! For example, a piece of clothing costs 6- 15 yuan, but the material cost does not exceed 50 cents, and the labor cost is extremely low-the labor cost of washing an extra piece of clothing remains unchanged, and the material cost increases very little, but the cost of 5-20 yuan can be increased! Which industry has such a high profit margin?

If you run a professional dry cleaner, if you take the right path, the investment will be recovered very quickly, and you can fully recover your investment in half a year or a year, which is simply unimaginable in other industries. Compared with other industries, the customer loyalty of dry cleaners is more obvious. Imagine that no diners will eat in the same restaurant every day for several months, but members of the same dry cleaner will stay in your dry cleaner for many years, so once the dry cleaner "rises", it is not easy to "fall".

In addition to high profits and quick recovery, opening a dry cleaner has the following advantages:

(1) endless projects, huge market.

In European countries, most people take their clothes to professional dry cleaners. In China, where the economy is developing day by day, the number of people who started dry cleaners is increasing day by day, especially the rapid development of textile technology and clothing design. Many clothes can't be washed at home, so they must be handled by professional dry cleaners. In China, almost all the central cities are crowded with people. If everyone needs to dry clean one set of clothes every month, a city needs to dry clean 500 thousand sets of clothes every month. If every dry cleaner dry cleans 100 sets of clothes every day, then a small city with a population of 500,000 needs at least 200 dry cleaners to meet the demand, and the market is quite huge.

(2) Cash income, no liabilities.

The amount of a single transaction of dry cleaning service is low, and customers are willing to pay in advance. As long as the guests enter the door, there will be cash income. Guests don't default, and dry cleaners don't have trouble defaulting.

(3) Small industry variability and low risk.

The dry cleaning industry is not like a popular commodity favored by the public, nor is it like an expensive luxury. As long as consumers wear clothes every day, no matter how the market economy changes, the business of dry cleaners can last forever, and the business is getting better every year, which greatly reduces the investment risk.

(4) convenient management and simple operation

The dry cleaning chain is assisted by computer and database management, plus complete pre-job training and post-job guidance from the headquarters, which makes your management more convenient and simple.

(5) There is no product backlog and inventory cost.

Unlike other industries, the dry cleaning industry needs to stock up first and then sell. Therefore, there will be no capital backlog and no inventory loss in the dry cleaning industry.

(6) facilitate chain operation

The dry cleaning industry can concentrate washing, ironing and simple management, so it is easy to standardize and can be done quickly and conveniently. It is the most suitable industry to develop franchise chains.
