Massage Establishment Owners

This group will discuss massage aspects from the owners viewpoint and try to give ideas on how to save money and activities concerning therapists.

Laundry?

It was one of my biggest problems when I started out. How do you do yours? Or are the therapists responsible for their own? I had a refrigerator for them to keep their food in and washer and dryer in the 2nd Center.

    I lug them home every night and wash them. I went out and bought a ton of sheets so I really don't have to wash them every night but I do so anyway out of habit, plus I don't want the oils/lotions to stain the sheets or turn smelly :-).  Luckily I just bought a new high efficiency washing machine (with steam and sanitizing function) a few months ago so my sheets are kept in great shape plus my water bill hasn't increased by much.

    I have a son who always asked for a weekly allowance, like they all do.  So I told him he would need to work for it-so he does one load of laundry everyday after school and folds.  I gather since I am providing the washer/drier/detergent/water, I would pay him $4 per load (usually 5 sets + face cradles etc).  He makes  $25-30  per week. My laundry is always done, keeps him busy after school and he now is very hard on his money.  It is a win/win situation for me for now until my practice grows bigger.
