Think DoorDash but for on-demand laundry delivery.

Say goodbye to laundry day!Loopie was founded by a group of determined entrepreneurs who shared a common vision: to make laundry day as easy as possible for everyone. Inspired by the sharing economy (and also the fact that John did not have an in-unit washer and dryer)\u0026nbsp;they sought to create a platform that would connect busy individuals with trusted, reliable laundry doers in their community. Thus, Loopie was born.Our story unfolds (pun intended)\u0026nbsp;as Loopie gains traction, rapidly growing its user base and transforming the way people approach laundry. No more wasting time at laundromats or struggling to find time to do it at home. With Loopie, users simply schedule a pickup through the Loopie Laundry mobile application, and their laundry is whisked away to be cleaned, folded, and returned - all within 24 hours.The magic of Loopie doesn't stop there. With a strong sense of community, the platform empowers its laundry-doers, affectionately known as Certified Loopie Partners, to become micro-entrepreneurs. As independent contractors, Loopie Partners\u0026nbsp;enjoy the flexibility to choose their hours and workload directly through our Loopie Partner mobile application, making it possible to earn extra income while balancing other life commitments. Now anyone who has access to a washer and dryer can participate in the gig economy like never before and earn additional income from the comfort of home while they spend time with their family and watch Netflix!\u0026nbsp;Now, we invite you to join us on this incredible journey. By investing in Loopie, you're not only supporting a company that's changing the face of laundry services, but you're also helping to create a cleaner, greener, and more connected world. It's time to say goodbye to the drudgery of laundry day and hello to a new era of convenience and freedom. Welcome to the Loopie revolution!\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;Forward-looking projections are not guaranteed.Forward looking projections cannot be guaranteed. A Note from our FounderFor those of you who share our belief and conviction that Loopie can continue to positively impact and grow our base of customers and Certified Loopie Washers, we'd love to have you on the journey with us. For those of you who might already be a Loopie customer or partner washer, we would not be here without your support and would love for you to become an investor in the business.

(2). If Notes of this offering re converted at a lower share price that the Qualified Financing (say $0.50/share for the Notes vs $1.00/share for the Qualified Financing) does this mean the preference shares that may be issued on conversion will be entitled to half the dividend per share as the shares for the Qualified Financing. And (3).

Back of the napkin math suggests that we'd ideally want to have roughly 1,850 customers ordering twice a month to cover all expenses and become break even as a whole - if we are operational in 5 markets then we can round 1,850 to 2,000 for numbers sake and say 400 customers ordering in each market on a monthly basis would be enough to be breakeven! We wouldn't need to fundraise at this point but we'd like to if that means we can further accelerate our growth potential - especially if we are able to execute a priced round from a strategic venture investor that has experience scaling these kinds of businesses -perhaps an early investor in Uber, Airbnb etc - hope this helps shed light on our thinking here - happy to discuss further over a call - john@loopie.io is my email address !","author_name":"John Lee","votes":3,"created_at":"2023-05-15T23:54:40Z"}]},{"id":247016,"entity_id":"wefunder:comment:247016","question":"thanks for quick response. yeah i am an investor in gym franchise concepts, several things that you listed as places to have your service. i can help get this in a ton of locations i see the exits of other companies, wow! i have never seen acquisitions so high! wow again! i see you mentioned linkedin or i could email you. anyway to get your email and do you have shirts etc or maybe later? thanks have a good day! what are your perks you don't have nothing listed.","author_name":"John Webster","votes":2,"created_at":"2023-05-15T18:35:33Z","canonical_url":"https://wefunder.com/loopie#question-247016","answers":[{"id":247017,"entity_id":"wefunder:comment:247017","answer":"Amazing!

From our historical order data it seems like our highest spending customer segment tend to be ordering from accounts made in a woman's name for a single family. These individuals typically work full time, are between the ages of 30-55 and either live in an apartment w/o an in unit washer and dryer or live in a single family home but do not have the time / desire to do laundry (often times these customers have kids e.g. more laundry!) While there are definitely people who may be too wealthy for the service and price themselves out (except if they happen to be staying at a hotel in one of our markets) I think the service obtainable market is healthy enough for us to continue to scale and invest in our brand marketing to this segment of the population. Feel free to email or linkedin message me if you have more questions and hope this sheds some clarity on how we see things.
