Charge More For Hot Water. Seriously. Do it.

Those of you who know me know that I am what you call a numbers guy.  I can’t help it.  And it is annoying to everyone.  Especially my wife, who can’t understand why everything has to go in neat numerical order.  Math rules.  Dogs drool.  And I like dogs too.  I have no idea what that’s about, but I have your attention, don’t I?

Now, I get a lot of store owners telling me that their customers won’t like paying more for hot water.  Yeah?  Well are you in business to make moola (can I use the word scrilla?  I think I can, so I am about to roll it in there). You aren’t in business to create laundry love.  Even if you gave this service away, some people would get their undies tied around their whatevers about who knows what.

So I am going to tell you this.  I charge A LOT more for hot water.  Right now it is set on buck fifty more on 40’s, 60’s, and 80’s.  I am about to raise it again, because I don’t play, and I like scrilla.  Check me out now.

With that price range held for a year, scope the report below.

Yeah.  These are real numbers, yo. That 80# washer extractor bank rocks 70.29% hot water use….EVEN THOUGH I CHARGE MORE FOR THAT PRECIOUS HOT IN THE WATER.  Yeah, so don’t tell me people are mad about that.  They get it.  The guy down the street doesn’t charge more, and last time I pulled his water bills, he was doing about 1/3 of the business that I was doing at this particular store.  You got that right.  I pulled his water bills.  Because, I am sneaky.  Get over it, and start doing it yourself. You need to know where you are and where the bad guys are.  Most utilities will give you the usage numbers.  You just have to ask.

OH, and how did I snag such a bad-arse report?  I have the FASCARD system.  And you should too.  I use it on my route and in my laundries.  I wouldn’t run a laundry without it.  Unless you want to be blind, you need it too.  Got all kinds of reports and data you can snag and follow.  Makes you a better business human, so you can smack down the primitive simian down the street.  Think about it.  Because, that’s what smart business humans do…we think.

All right.  Now that you are running to your laundry to add money to the warm and hot water vend prices and put more of that sweet scrilla in your fanny pack, remember this:  CALL US IF WE CAN HELP.  (615)-885-1115.  We’re good at it.  But you already knew that, and that’s why we love you.
