Don't Ignore Competitors
Prior to launching a laundry equipment commercial service and repair business within your community, it's a smart move to see how strong the competition is. We've provided the link below to help you generate a list of competitors in your area. After following the link, enter your city, state and zip code to get a list of laundry equipment commercial service and repair businesses in your area.
If there's too much competition, it may be wise to consider starting the business in a less competitive marketplace.
Finding a Non-Competitive Business Mentor
After you've evaluated your local competitors, it's a smart move to learn as much as you can from somebody who is already in the business. If you think your local competitors will give you advice, you're being overoptimistic. The last thing they want to do is help you to be a better competitor.
But, a person who owns a laundry equipment commercial service and repair business on the other side of the country can be a great learning resource for you, as long as they don't view you as a competitive threat. Indeed, many experienced entrepreneurs enjoy offering advice to startup entrepreneurs. Our estimate is that you may have to contact many business owners to find one who is willing to share his wisdom with you.

Simply, try our helpful link below, type in a random city/state or zipcode, and start calling.
