Biz Builders offers route building seminar
in L.A.
Biz Builder Services subscribes
to the belief that all drycleaners must seriously consider
developing residential routes because they provide the quickest
and most effective way to grow retail drycleaning sales.
Of course, in order to develop those
routes successfully, cleaners must incorporate a tried-and
-true strategy .
On Saturday, November 20, Biz Builder
consultant and National Clothesline columnist Al Robson will
head to Los Angeles, California, in hopes of teaching
interested cleaners all of the route building fundamentals they
will need to know in order to profitably build, expand and
maintain pickup and delivery routes.
Some of the topics scheduled for
discussion include: finding and signing up customers; finding
additional good customers; the dilemma of commercial buildings
vs. residential delivery; route mapping; and the pros and cons
of using a driver as a sales representative.
The seminar will also focus on how to
maximize the sales volume of each route customer and how to
calculate the profitability of routes with an emphasis on the
importance of utilizing reports on a daily, weekly and monthly
basis.
The session is scheduled to run all day
between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m.
The fee is $399 for a single attendee;
however that price drops to $349 each for two or more attendees
who hail from the same plant.
A continental breakfast and boxed lunch
will be included in the cost.
Seating is limited so early registration
is recommended.
Attendees can register online under a
secure server at www.bizbuilderonline.com.

Biz Builder Services was founded in 1994
to deal exclusively with the specialized needs of drycleaners.
NWDCA members cash in on refunds
Members of the Northwest Drycleaners
Association who are currently active in the workers
compensation rating program recently received refunds totaling
$12,675
When averaged out, that figure amounts to
about $600 per person, which covers almost two full years of
typical membership dues.
The unique workers compensation program
helps enrolled cleaners by seeking to reduce their individual
company’s worker compensation costs and sharing
additional savings among all members.
The program offers Integrated Claims
management assistance that addresses issues such as
workers’ compensation cost controls, claims management,
workplace safety, ergonomics, OSHA/WISHA compliance and loss
prevention.
As an added bonus, the help is made
available to members with no direct cost because it helps to
achieve net results that are lower than anticipated claims and
costs, thus leading to a substantial refund check given to all
participants.
