WHY SHOULD I REPLACE LAUNDRY EQUIPMENT? A Coin Laundry Owner Can Run A Laundry Two Ways: 1) They can sit up all night (Every Night) and worry about a gross income that is on a steady decline and wonder just how many washers (or dryers) are going to be out of order the next day or 2) They can go to bed at night relaxed, secure and comfortable because their customers are getting what they pay for -- service. They know their customers will come back to their laundry next week and the week after that. They aren’t harassed by broken machines. What’s more, their customers probably tell their friends & neighbors about the nice, well equipped laundry with reliable equipment and these friends and

neighbors may become new customers.

What do you think? Which is the easier way to operate a coin laundry? It’s easy to figure that one out, but you say, it’s so expensive to replace equipment. True, equipment isn’t free, or is it? LOOK AT THE ADVANTAGES NEW EQUIPMENT AFFORDS YOU:

1) Excellent Tax Benefits (Up to $5,000 in Tax Credits and $15,000 in Tax Deductions on Qualifying Equip.)

2) Lower Maintenance Costs!

3) Higher customer satisfaction!

4) Lower Utility Costs!

5) Higher Income Potential due to increased vend prices!

6) Less harassment due to fewer maintenance problems!

7) Higher bank balances for you due

to increased gross income!

8) Increased Value of Your Business!

9) Increased retained income due to tax benefits derived from purchases of new equipment!

10) More free time for yourself and family!

The Coin Operated Laundry Industry is no different than other retail businesses. To be successful and maintain maximum profits, equipment needs to be replaced and upgraded on an ongoing basis. Your customers prefer to use new equipment! Don’t lose them to your competitors! It just makes good sense!

Don’t let old equipment make your business obsolete! Let your Star Representative help you to enjoy the advantages of upgrading your laundry!

Save up to $5,000 . . .
