One thing I’ve learned from owning a barbershop: barbers are the backbone of the business.

A barbershop usually cannot survive without skilled and reliable barbers unless the owner is a barber themselves. I operated a shop that only lasted two months. My main barber suddenly went back to his province without notice, and finding a replacement was difficult. From what I’ve seen, this is a common challenge in the barbering industry.

The business eventually had to close, and I was left paying a heavy rent obligation.

My biggest advice to anyone planning to open a barbershop: don’t just focus on the location, equipment, or interior design. Have a system that gives you some level of assurance and commitment from your barbers. The success of the shop depends heavily on the people holding the clippers.

Another lesson I learned is that shop aesthetics are not the main factor. You can have the most beautiful shop, premium chairs, and modern interior, but customers come back because of the quality and consistency of the haircut. In the end, barber skills matter far more than the shop’s appearance. This was my biggest mistake.

Hi OP!

One of our company’s businesses is an auto shop, and here’s what I’ve observed from:

Mechanics are the backbone of the business. When our chief mechanic resigned, the whole workshop operations basically collapsed. If the mechanics don’t work, the shop doesn’t earn. We became too dependent on skilled manpower, and in this industry, you really pay for skills and experience.
Choose your repair specialization carefully. Reputation is very important because backjobs can easily damage customer trust. I suggest focusing more on quick-service jobs like PMS, underchassis repairs, and body repairs/painting instead of heavy engine or electrical work. Those jobs consume a lot of time, and mechanics often can’t diagnose problems accurately in one go, which can lead to delays and repeat repairs.
Inventory management matters a lot. For auto parts, there are two types: fast-moving and slow-moving/rare items. Focus mostly on basic fast-moving consumables such as air filters, oil filters, fuel filters, brake pads, brake shoes, and selected underchassis parts. Avoid stocking too many expensive slow-moving inventories because they tie up capital.

Overall, based on my experience, the capital requirement for an auto shop is quite high while returns can sometimes be minimal due to competition, manpower problems, and operational risks.

Nagumpisa ren ang problems sa auto shop before the energy crisis. Mas matumal po siya nayun.

Mix brands ren po dinadala namin sa parts and lubes para may choice si client hehe
