Leaving your business, even for a short time, is like leaving your firstborn child for the first time.
There's a bit of trepidation - can it survive without your constant presence?
Fortunately we live in a new-age of international business.
Between live web/security cameras, skype, and machines computer programmed to let us know how many times each one is run in a day, we can keep a pretty accurate pulse on what's happening at Bubbles - even when we aren't physically in the store.
And little is more exciting than checking those cameras, getting good skype calls, and seeing lots of completed wash and dry cycles.
Perhaps a little "Big-Brotherish" to get a skype call suggesting we use dryer 9 more, and dryer 3 less - since we see that dryer 3 is getting more use than 9 ... but that's what we're here for.
Here's a picture that makes us smile: two great Bubbles employees finishing up an order - all systems a go!
Here's another positive Bubbles business story for the digital-era:
A local business contacted us, via email, to do weekly contract wash for their catering service.
We email back, work out the details with a couple of skype calls, create a contract that both parties sign with digital signatures, and it's a done deal.
No meeting in person, wasted time in the car, or actual face-time ... just agreed upon business services with the help of technology.
