Survey: Many cleaners optimistic about meeting 2013 goals

CHICAGO — Asked about their goals for the New Year, nearly 58% of dry cleaners responding to Janu ary’s Wire survey say they’ve made resolutions regarding changes to their business and personal lives. Roughly 32% haven’t made any New Year’s resolutions, and the remaining 10.5% answered, “Not yet.”

Many experienced some degree of success in meeting their 2012 goals, according to the survey results. A vast majority of cleaners polled (68.4%) said they met “some” of their goals last year, and 15.8% said they had met “all of our goals.” Just 5.3% reported they did not meet their goals, while 10.5% didn’t set any goals last year.

What about goals for 2013? Rais ing prices and/or cutting costs is the No. 1 business priority this year for 31.6% of respondents. Roughly 26% want to attract new customers, and 21.1% wish to explore extra services or new opportunities. Another 15.8% plan to add or update equipment. Just 5.3% consider sprucing up their store to be their top business goal.

Asked to name their “No. 1 per sonal priority for 2013,” 42.1% say they will try to lose weight or improve their fitness, and 26.3% want to get organized. Roughly 11% want to quit spend more time with family. A

couple of respondents say their personal priority this year is to prepare for retire ment.

Many dry cleaners who were polled are optimistic about meeting their personal and professional goals. Nearly 58% say there’s a “good chance” they will succeed, 26.3% say there’s a “50/50 chance,” and 15.8% say “there’s no doubt” they will achieve their goals.

While the Wire survey presents a snap shot of readers’ viewpoints at a particular moment, it should not be considered scien tific.

Subscribers to Wire e-mails—delivered twice weekly—are invited to take a brief industry survey anonymously online each month. All dry cleaners are encouraged to participate, as a greater number of re sponses will help to better define opinions and industry trends.

Reminder: Deadline to submit 2012 Economic Census forms is Feb. 12

WASHINGTON — Late last year, the U.S. Census Bureau mailed 2012 Eco nomic Census forms to 4.2 million U.S. businesses, including dry cleaners and laundries. Those that received this form are required by law to respond, and the deadline for submitting completed forms is Feb. 12.

All businesses have the option to file on paper or electronically. For more infor mation or help completing the form, see the Census Bureau’s business help site at econhelp.census.gov or call 800-233-6136.

The first 2012 Economic Census reports are slated for release in December.

DECEMBER SAW THE NATION’S ECONOMY adding another 160,000 jobs, although the unemployment rate remained at 7.8%, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Job numbers increased in the healthcare, food service, construction, and manufacturing industries.

“December’s report marks 34 straight months of private-sector job growth, which have added close to 5.8 million jobs,” says Secretary of Labor Hilda L. Solis. “For nearly three years, steady gains have occurred across different sectors of the economy, and December finishes a strong year of consistent growth with average increases of about 160,000 private-sector jobs per month in 2012.”

THE NON-MANUFACTURING SECTOR ALSO GREW in December for the 36th consecutive month, according to the latest Institute for Supply Management’s Non-Manufacturing Report on Business, with a report of 56.1% in December,

which was 1.4 percentage points higher than the November figure.

MORTGAGE APPLICATIONS DECREASED 21.6% for the last two weeks of December, according to the Weekly Mortgage Applications Survey from the Mortgage Bankers Association. The number of refinance applications also decreased—by 23.3%—in the same time period; it was the third week of decreases, bringing the number to its lowest level since April.

According to the National Association of Realtors, pending home sales were up for a third straight month in November, and at the highest level in more than two years.

FROM THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR BUSINESS ECONOMICS comes a new Outlook Survey, which asked panelists about economic growth in 2013. A few of the predictions find panelists seeing stable and moderate growth ahead, remaining optimistic that

the housing market will continue to improve, foreseeing little improvement in the rate of personal expenditures, and suggesting a slow year for corporations in the new year.

CONSUMER CONFIDENCE TOOK A PLUNGE in December, as consumers remained pessimistic over a solution to the so-called “fiscal cliff,” future finances, the job market and the overall economic picture.

“Confidence is lost much more easily than it can be regained,” says Richard Curtin, chief economist for the Survey of Consumers from Thomas Reuters and the University of Michigan, “and the pessimism created by not reaching a resolution before year-end will be difficult to reverse, even if a settlement is reached soon after the start of 2013. … While tax hikes on top incomes will result in spending declines, ending the payroll tax holiday will result in significant losses in confidence and spending.” O —Jean

Clearing Up Some n ot-So- g ood Rings

There are good rings, such as gold, silver, wedding, and even ear. But unfortunately, there are also some notso-good rings: wet-side rings brought in to the cleaner by the customer, and wet-side rings left behind by attempts at stain removal.

These rings have one thing in common: as the circle of moisture dries, contents of the wet area migrate to the outer ring. We are never quite sure what the ring contains, but it is most likely water-soluble.

The rings that come across the counter from the customer usually contain a staining combination. Rings under the arms contain perspiration, while rings on the front are caused by beverages and sauces.

Many of today’s fashions are treated with an extra finish that is easily disturbed by water. The most common example of this is the appearance of “raindrops” on rayon garments. This disturbance of the surface finish will also cause rings to be left behind by water-based spotters. If these stains are not properly flushed and dried, circles will remain on the edge of the stain. Some fabrics are

sized to the point that wet-side spotting cannot be accomplished without a ring remaining.

Being familiar with the causes of rings will help make your treatment and removal efforts more effective.

Removing a customer’s perspiration stains requires that you begin by pre-spotting on the wet side. Flush the area with steam over the vacuum nose of the board, apply neutral synthetic detergent (NSD), and flush again with steam. Dry the area to prevent the ring from becoming larger. At this point, it is advisable to go back and “mist” the outside of the ring (containing salt and impurities) before repeating use of NSD. Work on one-quarter of the ring at a time and dry the area as quickly as possible. This procedure is absolutely necessary when dealing with heavilysized fabric, and allows the cleaner/ spotter to handle sensitive fabrics without creating larger or additional rings.

One of the easiest, most effective methods to deal with the residue left by moisture rings involves use of a leveling agent. After drying the affected area, cover it with the leveling agent and hang the garment aside for about 15 minutes. This will allow the agent to absorb the moisture in the stain as well as any moisture left from spotting. Make sure that the leveling

agent covers the whole area previously worked, including the entire outer edge of the ring. You can now clean the garment to remove the rest of the ring without fear of redeposition.

A fine mist of leveling agent from a spray bottle will level out those raindrops in a rayon garment. Pre-mixed agents can be purchased from your local supplier.

You must break down rings such as perspiration through wet-side spotting; the leveling agent alone will not remove the impurities of the staining ring.

Wet cleaning is a real option. I mean real wet cleaning, not just using water immersion. Wet cleaning is a defined system to handle sensitive fibers that often carry a care label of “Dryclean Only.” Wet cleaning is using strict control of mechanical action with a detergent/surfactant with a neutral or slightly acidic pH, reduced water temperature (about 87 F), and controlled drying to about 15% relative humidity.

Wet cleaning is a viable supplement to

solvent immersion. In the case of a garment that contains a large number of wetside rings, or when the surface finish is disturbed, wet cleaning may well give the best results. If you have a dedicated wetcleaning washer and humidity-controlled dryer, the job of removing rings is greatly simplified and can be done at a lower risk.

If you do not have dedicated wet-cleaning equipment, you still have an option. Mist the garment on the spotting board and

take notice of how quickly the rings begin to break down. Pour three gallons of cold tap water in a bucket and add two ounces of the NSD you use on the spotting board. Agitate the water to mix the detergent with the water. Immerse the garment and allow it to soak for a few minutes. If the rings began to disappear quickly when misted at the spotting board, allow the garment to soak only three minutes. If the rings took a while to soften when misted, soak the garment for 7-10 minutes.

Rinse the garment in clear water, using minimal agitation. Then add an ounce of acetic acid to the water before rinsing the garment a second time. Finally, rinse the garment a third time in clear water. After this third rinse, roll—do not twist—the garment inside a clean, white towel. Allow it to sit for a couple of minutes, then unroll the towel and hang the garment to air-dry.

Removal of water rings from garments can be a time-consuming process, but it is a great way to demonstrate your expertise. Your customers expect results, so give them your best effort. O

Choosing the r ight Adviser

The gut-wrenching volatility in the stock market over the past few years has been a tough challenge for busy business owners and professionals. That’s probably why so many are looking for professional help in dealing with investment decisions.

Business for “financial advisers” has been booming since the 2008 market meltdown. The problem is that searching for the right adviser can be almost as difficult as searching for the right stocks.

In most states, anyone can declare himself or herself a financial adviser without the need for a license or any formal credentials, even to the point of creating an official sounding title. At most brokerage firms, employees who used to be called stockbrokers are now called financial consultants or advisers. Whatever they are called, it’s important to remember that they are essentially salesmen who earn their money by getting you to buy and sell equities.

All of this is why I feel so strongly that investors, who feel the need for professional guidance, stick with licensed professionals with designated titles awarded by legitimate organizations, and only to those who have satisfied strict training requirements such as these:

Certified Public Accountant/ Personal Financial Specialist (CPA/PFS®)

The PFS designation is awarded and administered by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) only to those who have first earned a currently active CPA credential.

AICPA does not license CPAs in the United States. Licenses are granted only by one of the 50 states or five U.S. territories and authorize the holder to practice as a certified public accountant in that jurisdiction. Each jurisdiction has its own requirements for becoming a CPA and taking the Uniform CPA Examination.

In order to earn the CPA/PFS designation, a currently active CPA must pass the AICPA PFS Exam, a 61/2-hour comprehensive multiplechoice exam utilizing case studies to emphasize the integrated aspects of financial planning.

Certified Financial Planner (CPA/PFS®)

To obtain this Certified Financial Board of Standards certification, applicants must take a registered course of study; have a bachelor’s degree by the time they are certified; meet the board’s experience requirement (2-3 years depending on type of experience); pass the board examination; be subject to a background check; agree

Bill Lynott

to the board’s professional standards and ethics, including agreeing to a fiduciary standard; and be subject to the board’s enforcement process.

Certified Estate and Trust Specialist (CES®)

The Institute of Business and Finance (IBF) course consists of three modules, each accompanied by an online exam. The exams are non-cumulative, and there is no comprehensive exam at the end. Anyone over the age of 21 who is unrelated to the applicant can serve as a proctor for these exams.

Upon completion of the exams, the applicant is required to write a two- to five-page case study implementing all of the knowledge acquired throughout the course. The course is designed to be completed in 15 weeks, but since it is selfpaced and self-study, the applicant has enough flexibility to finish it sooner.

Accredited Estate Planner (AEP®)

This designation from the National Association of Estate Planners & Councils (NAEPC) is a graduate-level accreditation in estate planning earned in addition to already recognized professional credentials (JD, CPA, CLU, CFP, ChFC, and CTFA) within the various disciplines of estate planning (accounting; insurance and financial planning; law; and trust services).

It is awarded by the NAEPC to recognized estate planning professionals who meet special requirements of education, experience, knowledge, professional reputation and character. To apply, one must hold one of the previously mentioned professional designations, have been in active practice as an estate planner for at least five years (15 years to be exempt from the educational requirement), provide

three professional references, and be an active member in an affiliated local estateplanning council.

Certified Financial Analyst (CFA®)

To qualify for this CFA Institute designation, an applicant must hold a bachelor’s degree from an accredited institution, or have equivalent education or work experience; pass Level 1 of the CFA exam or pass their self-administered Standards of Practice Examination; have 48 months of acceptable professional work experience in investment decision-making; and agree to adhere to and sign the Member’s Agreement, a Professional Conduct Statement, and any additional documentation requested by the CFA Institute.

These five examples are typical of a larger number of financial credentials issued by qualified organizations. For others not listed here, be sure to research thoroughly before choosing one as a personal adviser.

Even after picking a qualified adviser who seems suited to your needs, there are questions you should ask, such as, “How much will you charge me, and will it be on a commission or flat-rate basis?”

You should also make sure that your potential adviser is comfortable with, and will respect, your personal investment preferences such as conservative, aggressive, or capital preservation. O

In Memoriam:

William “Bill” Steiner, Steiner-Atlantic

Corp. and

Dryclean USA

William Kalman “Bill” Steiner, founder of Steiner-Atlantic Corp. and Dryclean USA, died Dec. 27 in Flor ida after a three-year struggle with pancreatic cancer. He was 82.

The Chicago-born Steiner worked hard his entire life, beginning as a newsboy at age 9. He held part-time jobs throughout high school and worked his way through Baltimore Business College to earn his ac counting degree.

While working a s an accountant, a client asked Steiner to help him book rock ’n’ roll shows around Baltimore. Show business soon enthralled him, and he booked prominent 1950s stars such as Screamin’ Jay Hawkins and the Kingston Trio at concerts around the country. But he eventually tired of the constant travel and moved in 1959 to Miami, where he met his future wife, Sheila. They married in 1961.

It was in Miami that Steiner began a new career in the dry cleaning business. He founded Steiner-Atlantic

Corp., a distributor of dry cleaning and commercial laundry equipment, boilers, parts and service, in 1959. Mi chael Steiner took over the reins of that company in 1987.

After building and selling several of his own dry cleaning plants, Bill Stein er co-founded Dryclean USA, a dry cleaning business franchisor, in 1977. That business also continues through this day under Michael’s leadership.

Bill Steiner constantly sought to improve dry cleaning machinery in order to make the industry more en vironmentally friendly, and he is the holder of several patents for environ mentally safe dry cleaning equipment and processes.

Bill and Sheila Steiner have been members of Beth Torah Congrega tion in Aventura, Fla., for many years. They provided the educational center there in memory of son Jim, who died in a 1989 auto accident at age 21. But they were also generous in their com munity. In honor of their long-time support, the Jackson Memorial Hos pital Foundation renamed a part of the hospital the Bill and Sheila Steiner Family North Lobby.

Sur viving Steiner are his wife, Sheila; four sons, Robert, Richard, Mi chael and David; a brother, Tom; and four grandchildren.

Donations in Steiner’s memory may be made to the Beth Torah Congrega tion, Jackson Memorial Hospital, or the Greater Miami Jewish Federation.

Swan Cleaners flocks to ‘new’ location

Swan Cleaners has announced the opening of its new store at Worthington, Ohio’s Shoppes at Worthington Place. But while the store may be new, the location is not.

Swan’s new facility offers a full range of garment care services, including sameday dry cleaning and pressing, shirt laun dry services, alterations, leather and fur cleaning and storage, and drapery and household item cleaning.

Besides available parking at the front of the store, Swan has a side service door that allows for in-car service.

Swan Cleaners is no stranger to the location. The company built its first loca tion at the Worthington Square Shopping Center in 1982. After Worthington Square fell out of favor with the community, the company then moved to its Worthington Hills location. When new management took over in spring 2012, Swan was asked to re-open with a new store at the rede veloping center. Years later, the company now stands just around the corner from where its original store was located.

Swan Cleaners also recently opened another store in Upper Arlington, Ohio.

The study, compiled by surveying 29 companies with both old and new plants, reveals that production of workers in plants built in the last five years is “dramatically” higher than in older plants. Worker output was valued at $5.36 an hour at locations no more than five years old. Output in older plants, however, came in only at $3.45. The study further reports that employees in newer plants have better work habits and fewer work stoppages, and that automated equipment helped in production … “The customer always comes first” seems to be the mantra for two of the industry’s top promoters, especially in dealing with unserviceable garments. Ray Vermeers of Paris Cleaning says, “We have a policy of never telling a customer that she has bought unserviceable merchandise.” Vermeers explains that when the issue arises, the company finds out where the customer bought the garment, contacts the buyer and sends the customer to the store for an adjustment. Joe and Rose Adamowski of Salsburg Cleaners in Bay City, Mich., sees the issue in a similar way: “We never blame the merchant for unserviceable fabrics.” … A

Stone-Washed Denim Dilemma

10 YEARS AGO. The Neighborhood Cleaners Association (NCA) reports that a proposal to ban perchloroethylene (perc) in Chicago was further amended last month to protect dry cleaners in residential buildings and hotels. Alderman Edward M. Burke originally called for a complete ban on perc within city limits as early as July of this year, but had already amended the proposed ordinance following meetings with local cleaners and industry organizations, including the International Fabricare Institute (IFI), the Illinois State Fabricare Association (ISFA) and the Korean Drycleaners Association (KDA). Until last month, the proposal sought to ban “co-located” perc plants in apartment buildings and hotels, presenting a nationwide threat to many cleaners. The proposal, if passed, would have a deadline of Oct. 1, 2007, when dry cleaners would have to demonstrate solvent mileage of 1,000 pounds of garments cleaned per gallon of perc, and use fourth-generation, dry-to-dry equipment or better. The standard would then increase to 1,200 pounds per gallon in 2010 and 1,400 pounds per gallon in 2017. For the proposal to be passed, however, the Public Health Committee of the city council must review it before going to a full vote.

25 YEARS AGO. Dry cleaners are starting to face the denim dilemma of acid stone-washed jeans. Acid-washed fabrics are created in a special washing machine that utilizes pumice stones saturated with an acid. The process ultimately creates a used and faded fabric through the bleach and mechani cal action exerted. The Neighborhood Cleaners Association (NCA), however, is reporting that the chemicals used are often not rinsed from the fabric itself, and that the fabric gradually weakens because of the initial mechanical action exerted upon it. The NCA is advising cleaners to discuss this issue with customers and their cleaning options when any of these fabrics are received … Royaltone has opened the doors to its new leather and suede classroom and training center in Tulsa, Okla.
