Ross Dodds has made a huge name for himself in this industry.  He has scaled his laundromat empire to 13 laundromats and counting AND owns a large pick-up and delivery business in the Los Angeles area. And Ross has some things to share with you about how he did it!

In today's show, we dive deep into what it takes to scale your business from one or two laundromats into 10+. In order to scale, you have to scale your systems, processes, employment staff, and your own personal skill set. Ross shares in detail what all of that has looked like for him and how you can do it, too.

Ross also does a deep dive into one of his deals and shares the numbers on what it took to buy the deal and how much money it took to turn the laundromat into a Luxe Laundry. You don't want to miss this deal deep dive!
