This week we look at the 3 ways to grow any business, but through the lens of garment care.
So, what are the 3 ways to grow any business?
- Increase the number of clients
- Get new clients to use your services
- Increase the average transaction value
- Get existing clients to increase the amount they spend every time they visit
- Increase the frequency of repurchase
- Get existing clients to purchase more often

(active clients) 300 X (avg purchase per client) $30 X (visit frequency) 2 = (total $) $18,000

Our first method of growth is to increase the number of clients.
(active clients) 315 X (avg purchase per client) $30 X (visit frequency) 2 = (total $) $18,900
