CONCLUSIONS
BY OPERATING BOTH TYPES OF AUTOMATICSYOUR CAR WASH BUSINESS HAS THE POTENTIAL
TO DOUBLE THE INCOME YOU WOULD HAVE REALIZED BY OPERATING ONLY ONE TYPE.
IN ADDITION
BECAUSE YOUR SITE HAS FRICTION AND TOUCH FREE AUTOMATICS, CUSTOMERS WILL HAVE NONEED TO VISIT COMPETITIVE SITES WHICH
OFFER A WASH TYPE YOU DON’T HAVE.
THANK YOU
