Business belief? I wanna know if this is a good or discouraging idea for

I wanna know if this is a good or discouraging idea for a business...Would you foot someone to come and pick up your dirty clothes and do your laundry for you. Cost would be based on distance and amount of clothes.
Um, Maybe.You would enjoy to make it inexpensive plenty so that it would be worth saving the vigour bill. I would not want people to hold my dirty washing but ironing would be great!
For adjectives the bedding yes but i would like it stern on the same morning. Sometimes I do take adjectives my bedding to a local place who wash and iron it, its worth every penny. Sorry I am incompetent to remember the cost I know it wasn't very expensive. distance can not be a factor. you want to chose an area or city and stick to it. Find out what the local laundromats charge a pound, consequently you charge a little more since you are picking it up.

Answers:   This is not a investigational idea.
Hmm... Yes I would. It appeals to the following market really well. Maybe you could verbs your business to cater for them specifically

1) Disabled, elderly
You need a really friendly service. You can't charge too much simply because society on pensions don't enjoy too much money. For disabled people you may enjoy to go inside, gain clothes etc, and there is a adjectives some may be a bit stained, vomitted etc..

2) The Rich!
You need a really specific open market and branding for this. The rich are simply unwilling to do stuff by themselves, so if you offered DRY CLEANING services for posh business suits etc..., it would be good. However, you stipulation a very professional service for this. They will be prepared to repay higher, but want the point; this is, everything ironed, put on hangers and mostly perfect in good time.

3) The door to door thing
I don't know whether you view the UK Apprentice or not, but the task on week 2 be basically this. The problem beside going door to door is that it takes so much time, and you may not bring that many customers. Obviously at some stage you will enjoy to do it, but I advise going door to door surrounded by market specific areas, e.g. rich streets. Offer your service as a complete dry cleaning, wash, drying and IRONING service - right to your door in 2 days for example.

If I be you, I'd do a lot of research first. Go around ANOTHER district (cos u don't wana scare your own customers away) and ask if they would be interested contained by such a thing (dont say-so you'll be doing it yet). Think; maybe you could capture nursing home contracts, or restaurant contracts or mini-BnBs. Bear in mind most of the big places already hold big contracters. The second research you can do is ask laundrys how much they charge for stuff (without telling them u want to set up another competing business!)


You want serious equipment to do this, as well as a few rugged working workers. You need a personage who can pick up and deliver (and bear contained by mind how much petrol costs these days). You need someone to stay within your laundry (I reckon you probably need 1/2 GOOD wash machines), and they should be able to do ironing as okay. You could probably get a cheap, tough working Polish worker for that. You MUST make sure you hold a system where you DONT loose clothes. This is massively important. It's fairly tricky cos u mix everything when washing. Maybe taking photos and putting a clear in your mind coloured card representing each customer contained by the photo? Or just have a system with machines.. duno.

The problem is that whilst this business could work, you have need of a LOT of research, and you need to own a very devout idea something like what you're doing, or it could just dance all wrong.

Good luck - though I'm one and only 15, so I'm probably not the most reliable source!
