Buyer’s Guide: A Helping Hand You’ve heard enough riffs on tv, radio and in magazines (not me of course!) about 2020! Well, pun no more! To accompany this year’s Buyer’s Guide, I’ve asked a few drycleaning owners from around the U.S. to share their realities — tell us what their biggest need is this year?

A drycleaning owner from out west says: “Staffing is a year-round issue. I don’t know how to put this in a nicer way, but I feel the work force has gotten lazier and more expensive at the same time.

“With my machinery, I’m up to state law and I try to maintain them so I don’t see any issue of replacement, just minor repairs.

“Pricing is something I always try to raise. Because minimum wage and cost of living rises, so must we. I talk with other owners in the industry about not playing the low ball game with competition and to give the best quality you can and the highest price you can get in your community. You are in business to make Tim Burke money. Don’t sell yourself short.”

A drycleaning owner from the south says: “With industry in decline, the biggest need is attracting more customers, or a different type of customer, and slowing piece count decline.

“Attracting staff, in an environment where unemployment is so low, is the second biggest challenge facing the industry today.”

Another drycleaning owner in the east concurs, “We can’t find enough energetic, polite personnel for the counter who want to come to work everyday.”

The Products & Services section gives you companies listed in categories by alpha order. The Manufacturers & Providers section, also alpha, gives you updated company names, along with their contacts, emails and websites.

Also this month is the latest Talk of the Trade survey, Worth Your Weight, and Dan Miller’s column called Plan Your Success! Let this 2020 Buyer’s Guide give you a helping hand to finding what you need to run your business!

TAL K OF T HE T RA D E

Worth Your Weight W

hen asked in this first quarter 2020 American Drycleaner Your Views survey to tell us: “Do you know your drycleaning operation’s value?” Here is what respondents reveal: Thirty-three percent say, “I have a fairly good idea but haven’t sat with my accountant and gone over it,” while 20% admit they have “no idea,” of the worth of their business, another 15% know exactly what their business is worth in the market today.

Still another 27% of respondents say they, “don’t really have a firm idea, only guessing at this point,” and 5% aren’t thinking about it at all. (See graphic.)

The survey then asks: “Is your business comfortably profitable?” Here is what respondents relate: • “It is, however you can never stop trying to improve it or rest on your laurels.”

• “Yearly it is going down since four or five years ago, and I think that is the general trend.”

• “On a scale of 1 to 10, I would say about a 6 or 7.”

• “Just comfortable.”

• “No. This is my number one business focus.”

• “Yes.” (Many answered like this, but some said “No,” or “Not really.”)

• “It is finally generating a profit, but not enough for me to live off of. I’m using profit to pay down debt at this point.”

• “Yes, we can improve some operational effectiveness and make things more robust.”

The survey also asks: “Where does your largest chunk of revenue come from?” Respondents by far indicate that “Walk-In/Drop-Off” generates the largest chunk of revenue, at 71%. “Routes” generated eight percent and “Wholesale” just two percent, while a “Balanced Mix” of everything garnered 19%.

The survey then asks respondents to finish this sentence: “If you were going to sell your drycleaning business tomorrow would you be….”

“Happy with the price you’ll offer the market, and expect to get it,” says 15%.

“Comfortable with the price, hoping to get it,” answers 46% of respondents.

“Know it’s a reach, and probably full of negotiations,” notes another 24%.

6

0220adc_p06.FINAL.indd 6

American Drycleaner, February 2020

“Have to take a pass now, wait until the value rises,” says 15%.

Lastly the survey poses this: “Does your drycleaning operation’s bottom line give you peace of mind?”

• “Yes. Always a positive cash flow with cushion.”

• “Labor is my biggest expense and I still can’t get good employees; that doesn’t give me peace of mind.”

• “No, there’s a lot of uncertainty between economy, big players in the game, and casual business attire.”

• “Yes, have delegated many of the management roles to my employees and they have maintained our customer base with many weekly clients.”

• “No; I worry about it virtually every day.”

• “Yes, we maintain a steady 30% profit margin.”

The Your Views survey offers a current snapshot of the trade audience’s views. Qualified subscribers to American Drycleaner e-mails are invited to participate anonymously in the unscientific poll.

e’re asking drycleaning owners to share stories of a patriotic nature from the fabricare industry.

So many dry cleaners do things for U.S. service personnel and veterans, including cleaning uniforms, flags and more. And maybe you have a veteran who comes in your store or one who has worked for you.

Send us your photos and stories so we can put them together in our reader favorite Red, White and Blue (And You) special feature coming in the July issue.

helps celebrate our country’s Fourth of July spirit in our own fabricare style. But we can’t share these great stories and images without your help! The three photo examples shown above were from last year.

Won’t you help out this year and share a story and a couple photos of something of a special patriotic nature — something you’ve cleaned related to our veterans or our fire, police and EMT personnel.

E-mail tburke@atmags.com. Send it to me today!

Thank you very much!

Plan Your Success!

Develop a strategic plan: Where you’re going, and how you’re getting there

W

e’re well into the new year! The end of a previous year is always a difficult time for us as business owners. We frantically try to make sure we’ve met last year’s goals.

There’s paperwork and other filings that seem to gobble up the hours. It’s a classic case of the “urgent” crowding out the “important.”

It’s easy to postpone, delay, or outright cancel the most important thing you can do: strategic planning.

Yet taking the time to craft, execute and communicate a robust, coherent strategic plan is arguable the most critical step you can take as a business owner.

Dan Miller There are countless ways to develop a strategic plan and everyone has their own opinion on how it can and should be done.

At my company we have a process that we’ve used for

over a decade that works well for us, but at the end of the day I would encourage you to find whatever approach works best for you and your team.

My preferred strategic planning approach is built on four core tenets: 1. REVIEW Before you can even begin to think about where you want your company to go this year, you must first force you and your team to take a hard look at where you’ve been.

To guide this approach, I recommend using the strategic plan that you created the previous year, if you have one.

Specifically, go one by one through the goals that you laid out last year and check off the goals you’ve achieved and highlight the goals that still remain.

This enables you to refresh your memory regarding what you were hoping to accomplish and to what extent you’ve succeeded in reaching those goals. Hopefully you

began a “year in review process” at the end of last year.

It gives you time to get laser-focused on completing the goals that have gone unaddressed.

The other side-benefit of taking this self-inventory is that it tends to boost morale substantially.

In the flurry of activity that characterizes a typical year, it’s easy to forget how much you and your team have accomplished.

But when you sit down and take the time to do a year in review you and your team will realize how much you’ve done and be reenergized about completing whatever is left undone.

2. IMPROVEMENTS Once you’ve completed a comprehensive look back, now it’s time for you and your team to look forward to the rest of this year.

At the core of any good strategic plan is one word: Improvement. A year in which we’re not improving is not a year worth having, so the driving theme of your strategic plan should be one question: How do we improve?

In my experience, the greatest difficulty in this part of the process is collecting an authentic list of the company’s opportunities for improvement.

This is the case for a number of reasons: Employees may not want to be seen as criticizing their colleagues or management; they may fear change; they may not have been taught how to identify and solve problems; or they may just be shy.

To counteract these challenges I recommend formally soliciting opportunities for improvement from your staff, but in a totally anonymous way. This can be as simple as handing out notecards and collecting them in a box or sending out a Google forms or Survey Monkey survey.

The key here is making sure that staff understand that their opinions will be confidential, and to ask probing questions to maximize the likelihood of insight.

Here are some examples of questions your team can address: • “What makes your job more difficult than it needs to be?”

• “What annoys you about working at our company?”

• “What would make your work experience better?”

• “How can we make our customer’s experience with us better?”

• “How can we improve quality?”

• “What do you wish you knew more about?”

Asking these questions and giving your team a safe space to communicate their thoughts will give you a laundry list of opportunities for improvement, which you can then synthesize into a plan. www.americandrycleaner.com

0220adc_p42-43.FINAL.indd 43

3. PLAN Now that you have a clear understanding of what your company needs to do, it’s time to make a plan on how to execute on that throughout the year.

In order to ensure execution, it’s important to first synthesize your list of opportunities for improvement into larger tasks. There’s countless ways to do it, but in my experience I’ve found a few categorizations are critical.

First, it’s extremely helpful to differentiate between truly complex problems and “quick wins.” The quick wins like “getting a new coffee maker,” or “new paint in the front lobby,” should be assigned and allocated to whoever is responsible right away.

For the complex problems, I recommend setting aside some significant time at your strategic planning meeting to make sure you are all able to dig in and come up with preliminary ideas on how to go about solving them.

After you’ve categorized these new issues, the other critical piece in strategic planning is accountability. Every task should be clearly assigned to someone in your company with a specific timeline and metric to make sure it is achieved.

In addition, you should be sure to confirm that that person has the resources necessary to achieve their objective. Without accountability, clear deadlines, and the resources to achieve your goals, a strategic plan isn’t worth having.

4. COMMUNICATE If I had a dollar for every time I’ve seen a company craft a strategic plan and then fail to roll it out, I could retire. A strategic plan can be an incredibly powerful tool in driving the culture of your company during the year, but in order to do so it must be communicated to every single person in the organization. Otherwise, it’s a ghost.

In our company we communicate our strategic plan through an all-staff annual meeting. At the meeting we spend time reviewing the previous year; where we succeeded and where we came up short. We then allow different team members to present our priorities for the year and where we hope to go.

This ensures that every single person, from the presser, to the store associate, to the president of the company are all on the same page as to what we’re trying to achieve.

This year, do yourself the favor of setting a course for your team by creating a comprehensive strategic plan. It’s a lot of work, but I promise it will pay off.

As they say, a year is a terrible thing to waste!

Pariser hires Massey as central Pa. manager Pariser Industries hired Jim Massey as the company’s central Pennsylvania territory manager, it reports.

“We are excited to have Jim become a part of the Pariser team. He brings more than 25 years of sales experience in the janitorial supply and on-premise equipment sales service markets,” says Chad Dare, U.S. regional sales manager.

Massey will be responsible for distribution growth, account management, and driving revenue, the firm adds.

The company describes itself as a, “Diversified innovator and Jim Massey manufacturer of cleaning chemical specialties for the drycleaning, wetcleaning, and laundry industries, as well as food service/ware washing, housekeeping/janitorial, and water treatment industries.”

Helping cleaners succeed for the 376th time!

“DLI exists to help dry cleaners succeed!” So says its motto.

To that end, the Drycleaning & Laundry Institute (DLI) School of Drycleaning Technology, last year, trained 30 students in the art and science of running a successful drycleaning business, it reports.

Students attended DLI’s 376th General Drycleaning Course, comprised of the one-week Introduction to Drycleaning and two-week Advanced Drycleaning Courses. In these courses, students learned about: • Sorting loads for dry cleaning; • The science of dry cleaning; • Fibers and their characteristics; • Fabric construction; • Cleaning silk, stain, and other fabrics; • Soil and cleaning theory; 44

Seeking that perfect prom dress “While Zengeler Cleaners has always enjoyed a wonderful long-time partnership with the Glass Slipper Project (GSP), we all thrilled to add Mothers Trust Foundation (MTF) as a partner once again for the coming year,” says Tom Zengeler, president of Zengeler Cleaners.

Zengeler Cleaners reports it will again support both the GSP, which helps thousands of Northern Illinois high school women experience the joy of prom, and adds the partnership with the MTF of Lake Forest, Ill., with this year’s prom apparel collection drive.

“Plans are already underway at Mother’s Trust Foundation to build on the success of the MTF’s first ever Pop-up Prom Shop promotion in 2020,” the cleaners relates.

According to Susan Suhling, executive director of the Lake-Forest based organization, “The 2019 Pop Up Prom Shop was one of the most moving and inspirational events we’ve been privileged to host.

“We received tremendous feedback, took copious notes on how to improve where possible and with help of our volunteers and partners, have already begun to set the stage for another successful Pop Up Prom Shop this coming spring.”

The 2020 dates for the MTF are tentatively set for April 3, 4 and 5, at the College of Lake County, Ill., it notes.

The cleaners provides several important services for the drive, such as working with north suburban high schools to solicit donations of, “lovingly worn prom apparel,” from students; also, its stores serve as collection points for donations from individuals and businesses.

Zengeler Cleaners relates that it, “then inspects, repairs as needed and cleans the donated items, all at no cost to MTF and GSP. This assures every student wearing a dress from the collection drive looks her best on ADC this important evening.”

GI Cleaner Comes Back! 3 Soldiers 10 YEARS AGO. Retailers saw modest gains during the holiday season, according to the International Council of Shopping Centers, with December sales up 2.8% from 2008. Combined sales for November and December 2009 rose 1.8%, compared with the 5.8% drop that made 2008 the weakest holiday shopping season in four decades.

Manufacturing surged at the end of 2009, according to the Institute for Supply Management index.The index rose to its highest level in almost three years.

35 YEARS AGO. In the bag?

Marcia Miller, in her Over The Counter column from February 1985, writes, “How do your customers bring their clothes into your store? Do they scoop up a piece or an armload from the car seat? Do they occasionally drop something (usually a light color) on the way in?

All of the above, probably, and more ways, besides. It surprises me that only a relatively few drycleaning organizations furnish their customers with a convenient way to transport clothes, in a bag.”

50 YEARS AGO. Paper, Schmaper….

Paper’s Out, Plastic’s In! Worried about disposable paper garments?

Probably just a fleeting fad! Our fashion reporter tells us about a new fad unveiled at a recent Chicago fashion show—clothing made of plastic. The material is a polyester film normally used for packaging and computer tapes.

Among items featured: a plastic see-through wedding gown.

GI Cleaner Comes Back!

Announces the February 1945 front cover of American Drycleaner and touts a seven-page special section inside the issue on returning veterans.

75 YEARS AGO. GI Cleaner Comes Back! Cleaners naturally feel that returning veterans should be given every opportunity to reestablish themselves in civilian life. 3 Soldiers.

No. 1: Before Pearl Harbor, this returning GI was an executive employee for a large cleaning firm. He was 31, married 10 years. Him and a friend went into business for themselves (see photo) and their days ranged from 12 to 15 hours, and one of them sleeps there every night.

Their business is largely wholesale.

They are already wishing they had more room. No. 2: A turret gunner who became a plant owner in Ohio.

American Drycleaner, February 2020

Inside the issue, the headline 3 Soldiers looks at three returning WWII veterans, with one of their first remarks, “The plant’s too small already!” In another story of a GI coming home, a veteran inspects work on a Navy uniform at his drycleaning plant.

He advertised his business with this line: “Owned and operated by veteran of World War II.” No. 3: He came home from the Army but on the way stopped by American Drycleaner to talk about the industry.

He had won three spotting awards from the magazine before the war.

His dream was to open a small plant in a small town somewhere in the Northwest. He told the magazine editor, “I believe the industry is leaving its infancy and we are going to see some radical changes and everADC increasing volume.”
