Op... I will advice u to go for saloon cos u don't need to spend on goods unlike supermarket where you have to stock up every time... another thing is if u have a good location and customer base you will make more money(profit) from barbing than supermarket ...but d problem with barbing is that your apprentices will always cheat u unless you monitor them very well... can you try drinks(e.g Viju, malt, can drinks either beer or soft drinks, alomo bitters and others bit you need to learn it and also have good location ) it's booming but doesn't have much gain

Lol ok thanks. For the record I'll be hiring barbers to do the work while I supervise, cos I don't barb. Please is that a good strategy? I'm just scared of the best choice of biz to go into. And a supermarket sells our daily foods we need to survive, and ofcourse should bring daily income so am kinda perplexed, cos this is gonna be my source of livelihood while I grow. Thanks

install CCTV inside and outside by entrance with that you can monitor number of Barbers coming and going or you give 25% of every haircut to the barber by so he'll guard ur interest as his

I don't know if the op is still viewing posts.
Details, guy-
Location, other capital assets, your primary job or how much free time you have available.
Now.
Most people are only talking about their personal experience in a nice salon or store.
I cut my own hair. I cut my dad's hair. As more people suffer the economic downturn, salons will be seen as icing, not the cake.
Ask those 500k npower applicants if they'll be spending 2k a month on a haircut, out of the alleged 23k salary. And then how much they expect to spend on food.
So since EVERYBODY MUST EAT. And since the govt plans to start feeding school kids from september, wish kweshun you stil dey find ansa for?

Am viewing oo.

@jeffcheddy

1. I will suggest you either do 2nos salon in two different areas so that you can manage resources in a combined way to maximise profit.
2. Instal a CCTV to monitor the business. There are solutions that allows you monitor from your mobile phone.
3. Consider using a solar powered solution to minimise cost on fuel as this is your major consumable. With a modest sized inverter of 1kva you can power more than 4 or 5 clippers and a few lighting points to ensure you stay in business always.

Here are the materials we will need to do this set up.

a. Inverter (850VA-1KVA).......40-45k
b. One 200-250w Solar Panel.....40-60k
c. One 12V 100AH Deep Cycle Battery....30-40k (You may use two car batteries here but must be connected in parallel)
d. 12V Charge Controller....10-15k
e. Battery Stand, you may improvise this.

Total: Between 120k and 160k

4. You can sit out a whole weekend with your barbers to understudy patronage and determine a fair commision or daily returns with them. Whatever they make extra becomes thiers. Be flexible and considerate too with caution.
5. Visit existing saqlons around your area and have a chat with them on the business, they will be willing to offer you advice and also recommend a barber for you. They could also assit you in procuremnt and setting up.
6. As part of your opening ceremony, offer free or highly subsidezed cost to your custormers for a limited time. Build this into your ciost of setting up.
7. Try to stand out from the crowd in simple ways such as develop very courteous staff, be professional in dealing with customers, use a simple uniform for your staff, very decent and environment, clean equipment at all times. In short make every potential customer's visit to your salon and experience worth telling!

There is an adage that says "Some business does not need so much advertisement, all you need is one satisfied customer, just one!"

8. Identify more opportunities you can use your space or outlet for. This is looking ahead...

Challenges with supermarket have already been identified some of them and mor are:

1. Very minimal profit per sale. Profits are always marginal.
2. Highly competitive.
3. Requires huge capital outlay to make any meaningful profit.
4. location is very key, especially accessibility.
5. You need to keep up with new trends, customer choices, expiry dates, damaged goods due to transportation and handling, credit sales, fake or immitation goods, theft, shoplifting, dishonest staff and custormers jst a whole lot of issues to mention!
6. Requires ample space for goods, warehousing [back shop], car park etc.
7. You must be involved in the who;e process either purchasing goods, transportation etc.Else you would be swindled.

PS: These are ideas I have to be used later when I am able to raise some capital.

buharisbae:
okay my friend owns a salon he makes nothing less than 3k daily (minimum) 3000*30=90000 or more depending on the service

so I think salon is best

when I visited my aunt in lekki I escorted my bro to barb his hair and they called 500N for barbing teenager oooooo! I wonder how much was for men

so I think location matters too

and since u can't barb its either u learn it within 3months and also look for some1 trust worthy

I think there is serious money there

PS look for a busy location esp (Main road)

Thanks dear for d advice!

fweshh:
1 million? Open up a big salon, hire three good barbers and tell each one to pay you 6k weekly,thats 18k in a week and about 72k in a month,dont be greedy,whatever they make out for themselves in a month is non of your business as long as u getting ur 18kweekly,a standard salon wont cost u up to 500k, tho i also have my personal business idea where i can be able to generate 10-15k daily,the budget is 1m but sadly i dont have the CAPITAL to implement it. whatever choice u make best of luck bro.

Thanks bro. What's d idea u hv about? Pm me let's talk

I advise and recommend you to go for STANDARD SALON, my reasons are below:

1. It is wisdom to sell what people patronize
2. Every body does not patronize the super market but 80% of us (Men and Women) patronize Salon!
3. Every MEN barb hair, every men does not patronize the supermarket
4. There are items in Supermarket that does not have up to 50 naira profit when sold, the lowest charge per hair cut (MEN) is 200 naira



common sense!

Thank you. You have done well with the breakdown!

The Barber Shop will make more sense sha
Peak days are weekends
Location is key
Well source of energy too, u know where u r from na naija ooo
Inverter tins to power ur clippers n cooling system.
Don't know for a fact u gonna earn monthly Sha oo
Bt it's a worthwhile risk.

Bt me with a million? Am sure of at least 100k monthly with no employees, no rent just investment.

Run a salon but try to make it unisex. And bear it in mind that location really matters a lot

Supermarkets and saloons are everywhere.

For a saloon to work you need to be there always to check on sales unlike a store where you can do balancing of products vs sales.

I ran a saloon once for a week when the owner travelled when I was a student and that was the only time it recorded profit.

I simply opened and glowed with them. I carried my DVD player there and watched movies from morning till close.

If no light no problem the gen only came on for business. The guy closed the saloon when I declared how much I made cos it was a friendly gesture I should take the sales go the week he was absent as pay.

Lol.

I run a chain of unisex salons and I can tell you first hand that opening a beauty shop of any sort without any knowledge about it is stressful and risky. When I opened my first barbershop, I don't know how to cut hair, I was fully into ICT, I just did my analysis and started the business, my brother it wasn't easy. I didn't want the investment to die so I learnt the job, now I barb, make nails, lashes, Pedicure, makeup, facials I'm not so good at hair yet.... But my workforce respects me, cos I know exactly what they do and can damn them anytime. I have 16 staff under my employ. Cctv camera on every shop.
I can tell you first hand that this business is stressful and fun at the same time.
Some customers will make trouble
Some stylists will make trouble, have police case and all.

A customer once called military men to my salon, it wasn't funny.
Ndlea raided one of my salon last year looking for one of my stylists that deal.

Be guided.

Hmmm, interesting. Good one tho. I respect your courage and hustle. Was thinking of going into unisex tho, but thought about d stress involved with hiring of female staff and I don't kno anything abt d cost of making women hair, so I had to decide on going into men's hair alone,so as to find out the rudiments of setting up one as the case may be. Please share how u make ur income. Do u rent out spaces and they pay u weekly or they work for u and u pay monthly. How do u do it? I intend setting it up in owerri before december. So I need the best tips. God bless you! U can pm me as well as u wish. Thanks a lot.

Guy don't even try provision or supermarket business at all because it will seem as if some witches are swallowing your capital. Hardly can you save. Talking from a five years experience even while in a good location. Very competitive and frustrating especially with the expiry date on it. Think of another business please and leave provision for now if you really want to make a good cash. Have closed my supermarket business because I aren't getting any profit from it rather I will keep injecting every little penny on me just to ensure my shop is filled but at the end of the day, i wouldn't be able to gather enough money to fill up the shop again. So please and please forget supermarket for now and think of a better and less stressful biz to venture into. Yes, the business look so interesting and nuzzling but believe me you, you can't gather your profit together.

Barbing salon is better if u know how to barb and u r located in a good place.am into it and its a very lucrative bussiness. With 1m, ur salon will be very standard salon but the challenges are lack of good and trusted barbers.good luck

In addtion, if u want to operate a barbing salon with that huge amount of capital since u dont know how to barb, i will advise u use haif of that money for d salon and use the remaining half to add things, men's wears (butiq) to it. U can be in charge of that section while u monitor ur boys.
Like me I barb and sells perfs, hair creams, brushes, clippers and clipperskits, sometimes shoes and clothes. If u need more advises reach me or chat me on this number....08052366255.cherrs

A supermarket is better any day any time do u want to be making 200 naira per hair or u want someone to come into ur shop and buy something worth of 5k. your choice Sir.
