	The Recession Beater

In these unusual economic times, you may wonder whether or not you can afford a quality EPoS system right now. But, come what may, these Dry Cleaners are absolutely certain they wouldn’t be without their DryStream systems.

Matthew Dyer and Gareth Whitfield each use DryStream to help them run their successful dry cleaning businesses. Their experiences are worthy of your attention.

Matthew Dyer of Crossroads Dry Cleaners says that since having his DryStream system it has helped him improve his business as he’s doubled his turnover. Matthew has now opened a second shop on much of the extra income he earned in the first with DryStream.

Gareth at Rainbow Dry Cleaners reinforces that position. He says: “If you use DryStream correctly you will make a lot more money”. He explains how the increase in his turnover paid for his system within just a couple of months. Gareth gives us some up-to-date numbers saying “since having the system it’s made £650 per week difference”. And that’s a lot of money.

It’s at times like these that you need every tool at hand to win all the business you can. You need to attract new customers and maximise your income and you won’t do that with just a window poster and an ad in the local rag.

“I’m doing better since the recession, with turnover up by about 12%” says Gareth. He showed us how, on one particular day, he made an additional £250 purely because of his DryStream system. “I can’t see how anyone can survive without one” he says. And Matthew agrees: “I no longer miss out on lost extra income” he says.

	Whether you are fortunate enough to be doing well in this recession or having to work hard to survive, the key benefit you get from owning and operating a DryStream system in your dry cleaning business may be summed up by Gareth: “DryStream has made more money for us than anything else”. If you’ve not thought about a DryStream EPoS system for your dry cleaning business or even if you think you might not be able to afford one – think again. Maybe like Gareth and Matthew, you can’t afford not to have DryStream. A range of DryStream EPoS systems is available to buy or lease from just £9 per week.

	DryStream helps dry cleaners make more money, but Gareth and Matthew say it’s more than just an increase in turnover that makes them praise their DryStream systems so much. “DryStream makes you look more professional and definitely helps with being more efficient so you can turn over more work” says Matthew. “SMS [DryStream Text] is extremely helpful as customers feel more privileged getting a text message to let them know their order is ready and they remember me as the dry cleaner who ‘texts’ them. But this all helps to keep the stock moving out of the shop on a regular basis and makes us more money” he adds. Matthew goes on to say “account work is easy to manage and control. That means we can get in the money we’re owed from the contracts we have”. Gareth agrees. “The biggest benefit is increased turnover followed by making life easier and time saving. It’s the difference of ploughing a field by hand or using a combine harvester” he says.
