Commercial laundry sales · 20 modules

The Best Commercial Accounts You Will Ever Have Are The Ones You Walk In And Get.

Not the ones who find you on Google. Not the ones who call from an ad. Cold To Contract is the exact door-to-door and phone system that built a high six-figure commercial wash and fold division inside my Wash Bar laundromats: who to target, the word-for-word scripts, the Leave-Behind Box, the Free Trial Close, and the 90-day plan to a full route.

Instant access. Every script written out. Lifetime updates. Built by a laundromat owner, not a sales trainer.

The honest problem

You Already Know Commercial Is The Biggest Lever In Your Store.
So Why Don't You Have 20 Accounts?

Here is the real answer, and it is not the one you give people. It is not that you do not know commercial is big. Every owner knows a medical office can send 200 to 500 pounds a week, every week, for years.

It is that you own a laundromat. You did not get into this to walk into a doctor's office cold, get stopped at the front desk, and hear no from a receptionist. "I am not a salesperson." So you ran an ad. You dropped off some cards. You waited for the phone.

Meanwhile, every business within 15 miles of you that uses towels, scrubs, aprons, capes, or linens has a laundry problem they have never priced out. Most office managers have never done the math on what in-house laundry actually costs them. And nobody is walking in to show them.

The accounts are there. The margin is there. What is missing is not courage. It is the words, the box, the close, and the calendar.

Ads and Google

You pay every month and get households. Businesses do not search for a laundromat. They live with the problem.

Brings walk-ins, not accounts

Business cards and flyers

Read by nobody, remembered by nobody, and they give the front desk no reason to walk it back to the boss.

No reason to call

Waiting for referrals

The cheapest plan and the slowest. The accounts that came to you by accident are not a system, they are luck.

Not repeatable

We do not sell. We diagnose.

You are not selling laundry. You are solving a problem every business has and most have never thought about fixing. That is the core belief of this course, and it is the reason "I am not a salesperson" stops being true. Sales is not a personality. It is a sequence. When the words are written down, the box does the talking, and the trial does the closing, walking in cold stops being brave and starts being Tuesday morning.

  • 1The words for every conversation, written out
  • 2A box that keeps working after you leave
  • 3A close that removes their risk, and yours

Ten Accounts At $500 A Month
Is $60,000 A Year. Move The Sliders.

A single commercial account is not a sale. It is an annuity. Stack them and you have a six-figure division inside the store you already pay rent on, running on machines that sit idle during off-peak hours.

Your commercial route

Drag to match your market. The playbook's baseline is 10 accounts at $500 a month; a medical office alone can be more.

1 account50 accounts
$250 (a salon)$1,500 (a clinic or hotel)
Per year, recurring$60,000
Per month$5,000
Over three years, same accounts$180,000
Commercial gross margin, per the course40 to 60%

At $500 an account, 3 accounts pay for Cold To Contract in their first month. 1 account covers GROWTH every month after that.

Baseline figures come from the course: 10 accounts averaging $500 a month is $5,000 a month and $60,000 a year. Your accounts will be your accounts.

Say less. Close more.

Four Pieces Do The Selling
So You Do Not Have To.

This is the part nobody handed you. Each piece removes one reason you have not walked in yet. Together they turn a cold walk-in into a contract, on a schedule.

01

The Hit List

Three tiers of businesses ranked by volume and how easy they are to reach, and how to build a list before you knock on a single door.

100

names on your list before day one. 8 to 12 visits fit in one morning.

Modules 3, 4, 13
02

The Box

The Leave-Behind Box opens doors, gets read after you walk out, and turns your second visit into a conversation with a friend.

< $2.50

to make. We produce about 200 a month for our stores. What is in it is Module 6.

Module 6
03

The Scripts

Every conversation, word for word: the greeting, the gatekeeper, the second visit, the decision maker, the phone, the voicemail, the follow-up.

Every

objection you will hear at a front desk or across a desk, answered before you hear it.

Modules 7 to 11, 15
04

The Free Trial Close

The close that gets past the final hesitation by removing their risk. Once a business has had its laundry handled, it almost never goes back.

$14,400

is what one $400-a-month account is worth over three years. The trial that lands it costs a fraction of that.

Module 12
Try it

Hear The Objection.
Tap To See What Happens Next.

These are the exact lines you are afraid of hearing. Every one of them has a written response in the course, and every one of them keeps the door open.

Who you are walking in on

The Accounts Are Within 15 Miles
Of Your Store. Here Is Who.

Not every business is a good commercial customer. Module 3 ranks them by volume, pain, and how easy it is to reach the person who can say yes. Pick a tier.

Medical offices and clinics

Scrubs, lab coats, towels, gowns, drapes. Needs it done right and fast, and switching providers is a hassle, so they stay.

200 to 500lb / week

Veterinary clinics

Towels, blankets, scrubs, drapes. Heavily soiled, and staff hate dealing with it. They pay premium for someone reliable.

Premiumpricing

Dental offices

Bibs, towels, scrubs, lab coats. Smaller per account, but they are everywhere and easy to approach.

Everywhereeasy approach

Chiropractic and physical therapy

Sheets, towels, pillowcases. Multiple patients a day, high linen turnover, and they usually hate the laundry.

Highturnover

Restaurants and bars

Kitchen towels, aprons, chef coats, tablecloths. They already know they have a laundry problem because they fight it every shift.

100 to 300lb / week

Salons and barbershops

Towels, capes, robes. Consistent weekly volume, and the decision maker is usually standing right there.

50 to 150lb / week

Gyms and fitness studios

Towels, mats, uniforms. Boutique gyms especially, because clean towels are part of the premium experience they sell.

Premiumexperience

Spas and massage therapy

Sheets, towels, robes. Like salons, with more linen per visit.

Heavyper visit

Hotels and motels

Sheets, towels, pillowcases, robes. Takes longer to land, and can be worth thousands a month.

$1,000sper month

Assisted living and nursing facilities

Resident linens, staff uniforms, bedding. Massive volume, and often frustrated with their current provider.

Massivevolume

Construction and trades

Uniforms, shop towels, rags. Dirty, heavy, and they will gladly hand it off.

Gladlyoutsourced

Auto shops and dealerships

Shop towels, uniforms, seat covers. They want it off their plate.

Off theirplate
15

Miles. That is the radius the hit list is built in. Module 13 then gives you a playbook for each industry: what they launder, what hurts, and the angle that gets a yes. You never walk in generic again.

The math of a cold route

100 Names On A List.
10 To 20 Accounts. Here Is How It Falls.

Cold door-to-door converts at 10 to 20 percent over time when you follow the sequence. You do not need everyone to say yes. You need a list, a calendar, and a follow-up system that does not quit.

Prospects on your listBuilt in Foundation Week, by geography
100businesses
First visits in two weeks8 to 12 a morning, 4 mornings a week
32 to 48boxes left behind
Accounts closed over time10 to 20 percent of the list
10 to 20recurring accounts
Recurring revenue at $500 eachEvery month, for years
$5K to $10Kper month
0%

of sales take five or more follow-ups. The Follow-Up System in Module 14 gives you the touch-by-touch cadence, the phone script, and the rule for when to move on, so the follow-up happens on a calendar instead of when you feel like it.

0%

of salespeople quit after one follow-up. That is why the business you walked into last month still does its own laundry. Nearly half the people who walked in before you gave up right before the finish line. You will not be in that half.

    Josh Chapman, founder of Laundry Advisors and owner of the Wash Bar laundromats
    Who is teaching this

    I Learned To Sell Where You Did Not Eat If You Did Not Knock.

    Before laundromats, I spent years traveling the country for an estate planning firm, where my job was bringing in new clients. To work with us you needed a net worth of at least $20 million. So 99 percent of my job was cold calling, walking into large companies, getting past multiple gatekeepers, and sitting down with the CEO, the owner, whoever the decision maker was. Nobody handed me a lead. If I did not walk in, I did not eat.

    Along the way I also built a home and auto insurance agency with well over 100 commercial clients, from mom-and-pop stores to body shops and towing companies. Same skill, different product: find the decision maker, diagnose the problem, earn the account.

    So when I sold that business and got into laundry, and saw that every business within 15 miles had a laundry problem nobody was solving, walking in and closing them was the most natural thing in the world. Over five years, doing it myself and leaving the box, we grew commercial wash and fold at Wash Bar into a high six-figure revenue stream. The best accounts we have are still the ones I went and got.

    This is not a sales trainer's course adapted to laundry. It is fifteen-plus years of walking in doors, written down for laundromat owners: every script tested on real gatekeepers, every objection heard across a real desk, and a box I still make about 200 of every month.

    And Who Should Not Buy It.

    • You are willing to give two mornings a week to walking in doors for 90 days
    • You would rather follow a script that works than improvise and hope
    • You want revenue that shows up every week whether it rains or not

    Skip it if

    • You want commercial accounts to come to you. They do not.
    • You cannot pick up and deliver on a schedule, and will not build a way to
    • You are looking for a way to sell commercial without ever talking to a business owner
    • You will watch the modules, feel motivated, and never make the first fifty boxes

    Questions

    What Operators Ask Before They Buy

    Straight answers. If your question is not here, email [email protected] before you buy, not after.

    Should I buy the course or join GROWTH?

    If you want this one system and you are confident you will walk in the doors, buy the course. If you want me and a room full of operators looking at your pipeline every week, plus every other course and playbook we have made, join GROWTH. Cold To Contract is included in GROWTH, so you never pay for it twice.

    What exactly do I get for $1,497?

    Instant, lifetime access to all 20 modules, the written Cold To Contract Playbook, word-for-word scripts for the gatekeeper, the decision maker, the phone, voicemail and follow-up, the Leave-Behind Box build list and cost sheet, the industry playbooks, the pipeline stages and KPI tracker, the weekly practice schedule, and the 90-day launch plan. Updates are included.

    I am not a salesperson. Can I actually do this?

    This course was built for exactly that person. Every conversation you will have is written out word for word, the Leave-Behind Box does most of the talking, and the Free Trial Close removes the pressure from the decision. You are not pitching. You are asking questions and leaving a box.

    Sales is a sequence, not a personality. The sequence is the course. The first visit is the hardest. By the tenth, you are in a groove.

    Do I need a van or a delivery driver?

    Commercial accounts expect pickup and delivery on a schedule, so you need a way to do it. Most operators start with the vehicle they already have and grow into a driver as the route fills. The pricing module builds delivery cost into your per-pound rate so the route pays for itself.

    How much time does this take each week?

    The weekly rhythm in the 90-day plan is two mornings of in-person visits, one block of phone calls, one production session for boxes, and a Friday pipeline review. A single morning of visits covers 8 to 12 businesses because the list is grouped by geography.

    Do I need wash and fold running already?

    Cold To Contract is a sales system. It assumes you can process commercial volume once you land it. If you do not have wash and fold yet, GROWTH includes the courses that build it, and Cold To Contract is included there too, so that is the better door for you.

    Will this work in a small town?

    The hit list is built within a 15-mile radius, and even a small town has dentists, a clinic, salons, restaurants, a vet, and a nursing home. In smaller markets there is usually nobody else walking in, and the decision maker is often standing at the counter when you do.

    I already have a few commercial accounts. Is this still for me?

    Yes. A few accounts that came to you is not a system. The course gives you the targeting, the cadence, the tracking, and the close so you can add accounts on purpose. The pricing module also helps you fix the rates on the ones you already have.

    How fast will I see results?

    The 90-day plan puts your first visits in week two, second visits and decision maker conversations by week four, trials running by day 46 to 70, and trial accounts converting in days 71 to 90. Cold visits convert at 10 to 20 percent over time.

    How fast it moves depends on your market, your list, and whether you keep the calendar. No specific outcome is promised.

    How does joining GROWTH work?

    Every member starts with a one-on-one onboarding call. We walk you through the dozens of courses and 100+ documents so you know exactly where to start. Request your call, and you have full access, including Cold To Contract, right after it.

    Is there a refund?

    Cold To Contract is a digital product with instant access, so all sales are final. GROWTH comes with a full refund guarantee if you do not find value in your first month.

    Do I get updates?

    Yes. Lifetime access, and when something changes in how we sell commercial at Wash Bar, it goes into the course at no extra cost. I am still walking in doors, so it keeps getting sharper.

    Here is the honest version. You are already paying rent on the building, the water, and the payroll. Your machines have hours to give. Every business within 15 miles of you that uses towels, scrubs, aprons, or linens has a laundry problem they have never priced. They just do not know it yet.

    The gap between you and a six-figure commercial division is not nerve. It is the words for the front desk, the box that keeps talking after you leave, the close that removes their risk, and a calendar that tells you which doors to walk through on Tuesday. All of that is in the course, in the order you should do it.

    Do not wait for the perfect time. Do not wait until you feel ready. Make the first fifty boxes this weekend. Hit the road on Monday. The first visit is the hardest. By the fiftieth, you are a machine.
