Our laundromat is just 3/4 mile from a college that offers resident students free laundry. Lure them away with the convenience of full service (at a college friendly price), give away free pizza one night a week (we do this for about $20 and the response is excellent). Promote the fact that students dont have to 'hang out in the basement' to do their laundry and not having to wait for a machine. Imagine 400 teens using 12 washers and 12 dryers. We provide full service WDF at a discount to the college athletic teams. It's a great way to highlight what you can do for the college, community and students. Think how many ads you could buy in the college paper (most college papers offer cheap ads) for the cost of a lawyer and protracted legal battle. www.selfsuds.com
