What Our Members Are Saying
I love being a member of the Coin Laundry Association. The CLA is a consistent, excellent resource for learning more about the industry. I can say that without a doubt, Liberty Laundry is the success story it is today in large part to the CLA.
Being part of the CLA has really been a pleasure. Our membership paid for itself almost right away through the Water Evaporation Kit. CLA has helped me greatly in better understanding who my customers are and identifying ways to grow my business with the Demographic Analysis white paper.
