Love laundry? Christian Sanya turned it into a very lucrative business to fulfill her long standing dream of owning her own laundromat. She works in a science lab, but wanting to augment her income she thought of offering to fold laundry. People came running in droves, and soon enough she was doing the whole laundry load for a large clientele, so she knew she was onto something important.
Christian, who is energy, candor, organization, and diligence personified, has, with her husband, just opened their second laundromat. She is a serious and appreciative woman with a ready laugh. She is open to new ideas. She is, in a word, delightful. She is, in another word, successful.
You might think laundry is a tedious uneventful topic. Nope.
It turns out that doing laundry is a deeply satisfying activity not just for Christian but for a great many people. And, even people who do not like to do it themselves or do not have the time, clean laundry is a must. The fascinating history of cleanliness seems to go back as far as the dawn of humankind. Yes, next to Godliness, and documented just that way in ancient texts.
You may see laundry in a fresh new light once you hear and see Christian talk about the joyous details of washing clothes, from choosing detergent fragrance to the final folding. It is a topic that is absolutely absorbing and, more than that, so much fun. Bonus is the encouragement in how to start a thriving business if you find what people need and are willing to put in the time and work.
Her love letter? Twofold. You may be surprised at the possibilities she has with that laundromat. Hint: Couldn’t a laundromat at its best be a neighborhood social center?
