With warm weather behind us, and cold weather approaching, we will be drycleaning garments and household items that contain fabrics that possess insulating qualities which provide warmth to the wearer. These fabrics may often present unique challenges when drycleaned.

Soft Woolens and Woolen Knits

Soft woolens and woolen knits should be turned inside out to avoid abrasion on the “face” of the fabric. Chenille, soft woolens such as cashmere, angora, and mohair as well as loose or open knit woolen fabrics should be placed in a net bag during cleaning. Use a fragile cycle that reduces cycle time and mechanical action. If your machine does not have this cycle, run 3-5 minutes on a high solvent level with limited agitation.  Limited agitation means that the wheel is turned a few times during the course of cleaning and drying. Run in a “dry load” (no moisture) to avoid shrinkage. Dry at the minimum drying temperatures required by the type of solvent used. It is a good practice to pre-measure the dimensions of the garment prior to being processed so that it can be blocked to its original dimensions.

Down-Filled Items Follow the care label instructions. Some down filled items must be wet cleaned or laundered. Follow the laundering instructions, including water and drying temperatures. Some down filled items must be dry cleaned in a specific type of solvent (it will be written within the care label). Don’t assume that you can process a down item if you don’t have the correct type of solvent. When wet cleaning or laundering down items, make sure that the washer and dryer are large enough to accommodate the item. Never crowd a commercial dryer or dry a down item in a household dryer- there won’t be enough room for proper mechanical action or airflow. Dry downs with white tennis balls or clean white sneakers to increase the mechanical action that is needed to disperse and “fluff up” the down. Some care labels state that a laundered down filled item can be hung to dry. By doing this, the down may not evenly disperse within the pockets or will remain hard and settle to the bottom of the pockets. If the care label gives this method of drying, we suggest that a signed release of liability should be obtained from the customer prior to processing. If the down article is to be drycleaned, it should be rinsed in clear solvent. This will prevent any non-volatile residue (such as detergent or oil released from the down) to cause streaks or swales. Most dry cleaning machines have a pre-programmed cycle for downs. If there are streaks surrounding the cross-stitching, manually extend the extraction time after the rinse cycle; re-rinse and reclaim.

Silk Knits Silk is a fabric that is often used alone or as a blend with other yarns in the fabrication of knitted garments.  Examine knitted silk garments for dye loss, discoloration, fading and dye bleeding,  Check for fading from sunlight and atmospheric gas by comparing exposed. Dry clean knitted silk and silk blends with the same procedure as woolen knits.

Leather and Suede Leather and suede garments may have numerous serviceability issues since the skins are not uniform and are subject to different tanning and dyeing processes during manufacture. It is necessary that the cleaner receiving these garments inform the customer of potential problems. The customer should be made aware that it is the job of the cleaner to restore a used and soiled garment to a wearable condition. There is no guarantee that the garment can be restored to its new and original condition. Because of this, we suggest that a signed release of liability be obtained prior to accepting any suede or leather garment for processing.    

Bonded Leather (Stretch Leather and Lamb Leather)Manufacturers are creating stretchable leather garments by bonding a thin leather veneer to a tricot backing, using an adhesive binder that is applied with heat and pressure. In many cases, the manufacturer may shred leather scraps and fibers into a pulp, mix them with polyurethane, and then bond the mixture to a tricot backing. The end product of both of these processes is commonly known as “Stretch Leather” or “Lamb Leather” The serviceability of a bonded leather fabric depends upon the use of an adhesive binder that will not dissolve when it comes into contact with drycleaning solvent, or lose its integrity when heat is applied to the garment during the reclamation cycle. If the bonding process was faulty, the leather veneer will separate from the tricot backing, or the pulp mixture may shred, peel or separate from the tricot backing. Since bonded leather is often used on form fitted or body molded garments, the leather veneer or pulp mixture may separate from the tricot backing or shred in the areas of the garment that are subjected to excessive stretching or flexing (such as the seat and knees of slacks as well as the elbows of jackets or blouses). Because of the serviceability issues concerning bonded leather, we suggest that they be hand cleaned using commercial leather cleaning products that can be manually applied to the skins.

Step 1: Review Last Year’s Campaigns

Take a look at last year's holiday emails. Identify which campaigns were successful—did they get many people to open, click, or even make a purchase? Learn from these insights so you know what to repeat and what to improve. If you don’t have data from last year, consider researching examples from competitors or look at general holiday email statistics for inspiration.

Step 2: Segment Your Email List

Split your contact list into groups. Not every customer has the same needs. Some may be interested in discounts, while others want information on new products. Common segments could include past buyers, people who have opened your emails recently, or VIP customers. This helps you send the right message to the right people.

Step 3: Set Your Goals

Determine what you want to achieve with your holiday emails. Examples might include increasing sales by 20%, getting more people to visit your store, or improving your email open rate by 10%. Write down your goals so you can create targeted campaigns and measure success.

Step 4: Plan Your Email Calendar

Create a schedule for your emails. Decide how often you want to send messages: maybe once a week leading up to the holidays, with an extra reminder during big sales like Black Friday or Cyber Monday. Mark these dates on your calendar and plan the content for each email. Be mindful not to overwhelm your subscribers with too many messages.

Step 5: Craft Engaging Subject Lines

Subject lines are crucial because they determine whether someone opens your email. Make them exciting but short—try including a sense of urgency like "Limited Time Offer!" or personalization like "Just for You, [Name]." Always test a few different options (this is called A/B testing) to see which works best.

Step 6: Design Eye-Catching Emails

Use a tool like Canva to create visually appealing emails. Use festive images that represent the holidays, such as snowflakes, presents, or ornaments. Make sure your email is easy to read: use large text, short paragraphs, and buttons that stand out so customers know where to click. Don’t forget to make sure the email looks good on mobile devices too, since many people will read your emails on their phones.

Step 7: Create Strong Calls-to-Action (CTAs)

Each email should have a clear action you want readers to take, such as “Shop Now,” “Claim Your Discount,” or “Sign Up.” Use buttons or bold text to make the action stand out. Place the CTA near the top and also repeat it towards the bottom so readers see it no matter where they stop reading.

Step 8: Include Exclusive Offers

Make your subscribers feel special by giving them exclusive discounts or early access to sales. Highlight these offers in your emails with phrases like "Special Offer for Subscribers Only." It can motivate people to act faster and feel valued as part of your community.

Step 9: Test Before Sending

Send a test email to yourself and a colleague to make sure everything looks right. Check all the links, ensure images load properly, and proofread the content. Mistakes like broken links or misspellings can make your business look unprofessional.

Step 10: Track and Adjust

After sending your emails, track their performance. Look at how many people opened, clicked, or purchased from each email. If one message performed poorly, adjust the next one—perhaps by changing the subject line or using a different image. Keep learning from each campaign to improve results.

Remember, in the competitive world of drycleaning, attention to details like proper detergent use can be the difference between a good cleaning service and a great one. Let's commit to excellence in every aspect of our operations, starting with the foundation of our cleaning process – the humble yet powerful detergent.

In the competitive world of drycleaning, staying ahead means constantly refining our processes. Today, I want to discuss a critical aspect of our operations that often doesn't get the attention it deserves: the strategic use of detergents in our cleaning process.

Why Detergents Matter to Your Bottom Line: While our primary solvents handle oil-based stains effectively, detergents are crucial for tackling water-soluble soils. Proper detergent use can significantly impact:

1. Cleaning Quality: Improved stain removal and prevention of soil redeposition
2. Operational Efficiency: Reduced need for re-cleaning
3. Customer Satisfaction: Consistently cleaner garments lead to loyal customers
4. Equipment Longevity: Proper use can reduce wear on machines and filters

The Science Behind the Success: Detergents in our machines serve two primary functions:

1. They bind with water to dissolve water-soluble stains.
2. They keep loose soil suspended, preventing it from resettling on garments.

Many premium detergents also contain anti-static agents, further enhancing cleaning quality.

Choosing the Right Detergent System: There are two main methods for introducing detergents:

1. Charged System:
   • Pros: Consistent detergent concentration
   • Cons: Requires careful moisture monitoring
2. Batch Injection System:
   • Pros: Precise dosing, automated moisture control, less still residue
   • Cons: Initial equipment investment

The batch injection method has gained popularity due to its precision and efficiency, but your choice should depend on your specific operational needs.

Best Practices for Optimization:

1. Invest in Quality: Premium detergents can significantly improve cleaning results.
2. Regular Calibration: Ensure your systems are checked and calibrated by experts.
3. Staff Training: Educate your team on the importance of proper detergent use.
4. Monitor and Adjust: Regularly assess results and adjust based on soil loads and garment types.
5. Consider Water Quality: Local water conditions can affect detergent performance.

The Impact on Your Business: Optimizing your detergent use can lead to:

• Higher customer satisfaction and retention
• Reduced operating costs through efficient cleaning
• Extended garment life, building trust with customers
• Potential reduction in overall chemical usage

I hope this insight helps you understand the critical role detergents play in our industry. By focusing on this often-overlooked aspect of our process, we can significantly enhance our operations and customer satisfaction.

If you have any questions about optimizing your detergent use or would like to discuss this further, please don't hesitate to reach out. As industry leaders, it's crucial that we continue to refine our craft and share knowledge.

Knitting is a process by which needles are used to form one or more yarns into a series of interlocking loops. Knitted garments are desirable because they do not wrinkle easily, will contour to the body, and possess excellent insulating qualities. Knitted fabrics can be made of any fiber or fiber blend, and are used extensively in sweaters, dresses, slacks, jackets, and in a variety of garments for both men and women.

The unstable shape of the knitted stitch can result in the loss of shape and dimensions in many knitted garments. This problem may be due to the type of knitted construction, the type of fiber or yarn, as well as the type of stabilization or pre-shrinkage treatment used by the manufacturer.

Some of the problems associated with knitted garments are:

1.      The stretching and distortion due to the loosely knitted construction of the garment.

2.      The use of dimensionally unstable thermoplastic yarns (such as acrylic) that will cause the stretching of the garment from mechanical action (drum rotation) as well as from  the heat generated during the reclamation or drying cycles.

3.      The pilling of the yarns caused by the breakage of the fibers that is the result of abrasion

4.   The shrinkage of the fabric that is the result of a defective pre-shrinkage treatment.     

5.      The “felting” (the hardening and compression) of woolen yarns caused by their exposure to water or excessive heat.

6.      The snagging of the fabric due to the loosely twisted yarns and open or loose construction. This is very common on chenille knitted fabrics.

7.      The shrinkage of soft woolen specialty knits (such as cashmere, mohair, and angora).

         
Inspect knitted garments at the so that any pre-existing damage can be detected. Examine the garment for snags and pulled yarns. Examine wool and silk knits for moth and insect damage. Inspect the areas of the garment that are subject to tension and pulling including seam areas where runs and pulled yarns may occur. Examine the garment for uneven hemlines, especially on a garment that contains a bias cut construction. Puckering that results from stretching or shrinkage may be visible in the seamed areas of knitted garments. Pre-measure knitted garments so that they can be blocked back to size after processing.

Whether drycleaned or wetcleaned, knitted garments should be turned inside out and placed in a net bag in order to prevent mechanical damage such as pilling, snagging, stretching and shrinkage. This practice is especially important when processing specialty knits that contain chenille yarns or with soft woolen yarns such as cashmere, angora, and mohair. When drycleaning knitted fabrics, use a fragile program that reduces cycle time and mechanical action. Reclaim at the minimum temperatures that are required for your type of solvent. It is possible to successfully wetclean many types of knitted fabrics, if you have fully programmable settings on your wetcleaning machine and dryer. Many types of knitted garments (especially those that contain acrylic) must be “hand washed” and laid flat to dry. Refer to the garment’s care label for processing instructions.

Whether you charge for the de-pilling of knitted garments or include the added labor into your price, knitted garments must be free of pills prior to the blocking of the garment. Knitted garments should either be folded over a strut type of hanger or folded and placed in a sweater bag. Never hang a knitted garment by its shoulders, since it may stretch while hanging (this is known as “growth”).

In today's fast-paced world, we're constantly seeking ways to boost productivity and achieve our goals. But what if the key to extraordinary success isn't about working harder, but working smarter? Enter "Who Not How," a game-changing book by Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy that's revolutionizing how we approach our personal and professional lives.

The 'Who Not How' Revolution

Sullivan challenges the age-old question, "How can I do this?" Instead, he proposes a simple yet powerful shift: ask "Who can help me achieve this?" This mindset transformation is the cornerstone of achieving more by doing less.

Key Takeaways:

1. Leverage Strengths: Focus on what you do best and find others who excel where you don't.
2. Embrace Collaboration: Success isn't a solo journey. It's about building a network of skilled individuals.
3. Abundance Mindset: Shift from scarcity (doing it all yourself) to abundance (tapping into a world of expertise).

Benefits of the 'Who' Approach

• Skyrocket Efficiency: Achieve more in less time by delegating to experts.
• Spark Creativity: Fresh perspectives lead to innovative solutions.
• Reduce Stress: Say goodbye to burnout by sharing the load.
• Accelerate Growth: Learn from others and expand your capabilities faster.

Putting It Into Practice

Ready to transform your approach? Here's how to start:

1. Identify tasks you struggle with or that drain your energy.
2. Consider who in your network (or beyond) could handle these tasks expertly.
3. Invest in relationships and collaborations that propel you towards your goals.

Remember, the initial costs of finding your "who" are far outweighed by the long-term benefits of accelerated success and personal growth.

Food for Thought

"The question 'Who can do this for me?' will change your life. It's the single most important question you can ask yourself on a daily basis." - Dan Sullivan

Are you ready to revolutionize your approach to success? Start asking "who" instead of "how" and watch as new possibilities unfold before you.

As summer draws to a close and September approaches, it's crucial for dry cleaning business owners to start planning for the seasonal transition. The change in weather, customer demands, and business opportunities during this time can significantly impact on your operations. Proper preparation can ensure your business not only survives but thrives during this period. Here’s what you should be focusing on as August ends and you move into September.
1. Evaluate and Adjust Inventory
As the season changes, so do the types of garments your customers bring in. August is typically the last month when summer clothing dominates, while September marks the beginning of the influx of fall and winter garments. Start by evaluating your current inventory of cleaning supplies, solvents, and other materials to ensure you are well-stocked for the heavier fabrics and more complex cleaning processes that autumn clothing often requires.
Consider running a sale or promotion on summer garment cleaning services to clear out inventory. This not only helps manage your stock but also drives customer engagement during a period when business might typically slow down.
2. Seasonal Marketing Campaigns
September is a great time to launch targeted marketing campaigns aimed at both existing and potential customers. With back-to-school season and the upcoming cooler weather, people are transitioning their wardrobes from lightweight summer attire to heavier fall and winter garments. Use this opportunity to remind customers of the importance of dry cleaning these items.
You could introduce a special promotion, such as a discount on coats, jackets, and sweaters brought in for cleaning during September. Additionally, consider creating a campaign that educates customers on the benefits of regular dry cleaning for maintaining the longevity and appearance of their fall and winter garments.
3. Prepare for Back-to-School
Back-to-school season is not just for students. It’s also a prime time for parents and professionals who are returning to their regular routines after the summer break. This period often brings an increase in the need for professional attire cleaning. Ensure that your business is ready to handle the influx of school uniforms, workwear, and other garments that will likely need cleaning.
Consider offering special back-to-school discounts or packages, such as a uniform cleaning package at a reduced rate or a bulk discount for multiple items. This will attract more customers and help boost your revenue during this period.
4. Update Your Website and Online Presence
As you move into a new season, it’s also a good time to update your website and online presence to reflect your current offerings. Highlight any seasonal promotions, new services, or changes in business hours that may coincide with the end of summer. Make sure your website, social media pages, and online listings are up to date with accurate information.
Additionally, consider creating content that addresses seasonal topics, such as tips for caring for winter garments or advice on storing summer clothes. This not only provides value to your customers but also helps improve your search engine rankings, making it easier for potential customers to find your business online.
5. Staffing Adjustments
With the change in season, you may also need to reassess your staffing needs. The end of summer might see some staff returning to school or needing different schedules. At the same time, the increase in demand for dry cleaning services in September may require additional help, particularly during peak hours.
Plan ahead by reviewing your staff schedule and making any necessary adjustments. If needed, start the recruitment process early to ensure you have adequate coverage as business picks up. Additionally, consider providing refresher training sessions for your staff to ensure they are well-prepared to handle the seasonal demands, particularly if there are any new services or promotions being offered.
6. Customer Service and Retention
As customer habits shift with the changing seasons, now is an excellent time to focus on customer retention strategies. Consider implementing a loyalty program or offering incentives for repeat customers. Personalized marketing, such as sending out reminder emails or texts to customers who haven’t visited in a while, can also be effective.
Additionally, with the potential for new customers as people adjust to their fall routines, make sure your customer service is top-notch. Train your staff to provide a welcoming and helpful experience, as this can significantly impact whether first-time customers become regulars.
7. Plan for the Holidays
While it might seem early, September is the perfect time to start planning for the upcoming holiday season. Begin thinking about holiday promotions, special services (such as holiday tablecloth and formalwear cleaning), and any necessary inventory adjustments. Early planning ensures you’re not scrambling when the busy holiday season arrives.
You might also want to consider collaborating with local businesses for cross-promotions, which can help expand your reach and bring in new customers during the holiday season.

The end of August moving into September is a critical time for dry cleaning business owners. By focusing on inventory adjustments, targeted marketing campaigns, staffing needs, and customer service, you can position your business for success as you transition into the fall season. Proper planning and strategic action will not only help you manage the seasonal shift but also provide opportunities to grow your business and enhance customer satisfaction.
