better ideas

1) betting shop 2 old laptops wt monitor, 1 big fan, 1 tv and 1 (2500) generator for a start. Even if you are not there. The system does account balancing and your weekly commision goes to your account. Staff feeding, Fuel and minor generator maintainance comes from the cashiers who get over 2k daily gain from people's winnings on virtual games. A person wins 545 gets 500, wins 2,383 gets 2,350 or 2,300 and this happens over 20 winnings per cashier per day. You can ask each cashier on virtual to submit 500 to management.

2) game shop 2-5 tvs with playstation3 and/or ps4 consoles. Run it yourself.

3) soccer viewing centre. Matches are played at night and weekends so can run it after work and be a huge source of extra income. Average (30k monthly after expenses)

Run all 3 or any two together full time and your current 75k a month will be made in less than 2weeks.

Barbing salon. 95% of men cut their hair. Only those who can afford a dry cleaner use their services.
I agree with you. However if he can get a spacious shop too, he can demarticate it and run both.

Every business requires time and attention. Whether you are experienced or not If you are not there, my brother it will sink. If you can add another 250k to the one you have. Go for a bet9ja shop..whether you have experience or not, you will control the inflow of ur money and you can control it online and still keep your job...you will make close to 60k every week excluding other bonuses like getting 3 naira on every betslip etc...It's just getting a good location were area boys deh...Ahia gi azuo!!
Re: Barbing Saloon Vs Laundry Services: Which Is A Better Business? by OgeFather(m): 9:26am On Jan 21, 2018
they are both good business but the location matters most, and good people to run it too because you want be there to monitor all the time so if you can be able to get the two (good location,good people )then you'll be fine .God bless your hustle




and please anyone who is willing to talk me thru betting business (betting shop )should mail me thanks .....2018 is the year we'll all make it

Nairalanders,

Pls, I want to invest N250k into a barbing saloon. That's what is on my mind for now. But some other person suggested drycleaning business.

I work with a private firm & earn N75k monthly. I won't be the one to manage the business if I open any. I would get someone to manage it for me.

Please, I need advice.

Or any other suggestion apart from the two mentioned above.

Location: south east, Abia to be precised.

Thanks

A good business plan is what you need. It is the fundamental, rudimentary and foundation for a start up buinsess without which is like a skyscraper without a deep foundation. If you want me to help with that, then whatsapp me on 08054145713. A good business plan takes care of all you need to start and finish your business set up. Thanks
Must every help and reasonable ideas be made private? Why not make your contributions here? That's shows how selfish some humans can be....95% of your audience can never be convinced because there must be something intrigue in your ideas.

I will advice you to go for laundry in a good location since you won't be there to manage it yourself, barbing saloon is a lucrative business but those barber will frustrate the business for you. eg through customers attachment and familiarity, most has plan to own their own saloon too. in laundry customers only know the receptionist.

Just started laundry services, but hope to add hair dressing services too. laundry isn't expensive to run, or maintain as people think, a 25ltr of water and a packet of klin can wash over 10 clothes using laundry machine. A man cuts his hair once a week but washes more than 10 clothes in one week too. so, for me laundry is more lucrative if you are in good location and that is why I am into it. Once you get a good location for laundry you can contact me for mentorship. I have a young girl managing the shop but I do go there every evening to take stock and determine the average income daily since it's just a new business

You can do both in the same shop/office, all you need to do is to do a dermacation in the shop/office. However if you cant afford that. Then I will advice you pick barbing salon in a very good location

what kind of thinking is this? this mentality is why nigerian businesses fail in the first 4years..
Re: Barbing Saloon Vs Laundry Services: Which Is A Better Business? by nothernstar: 10:56am On Jan 21, 2018
If you are not going to run or manage the laundry biz, pls don't venture into it. Talking from experience. If you do, your biz will die over night with complaints from your customers. I run one presently.

I know of a place you can start this biz in Abia(School Environment) , it's not saturated like most places... Gradually with nice concepts, you'll lead while others queue behind.

But bro how is it possible for the owner to know how much the Baber earns so to know he is not cheating you
isaaciog:
Barbing is better but make sure that anyone you employed should be paid based on commission on Any amount of sale he makes per day. It should not be paid monthly. My thought.

Barbing saloon has lesser running cost compared to laundry.



N/B; Never employ these 2 sets of ppl for your saloon or laundry biz.
1) Family or Friends; They would take your biz for granted and rob u cuz they know dia is a level u won't reach to recover ur money.
2) Religious ppl; They are d biggest hypocrites! They would cloud ur judgment on dem with their religousness and rob u blind!

so who is a perfect candidate?

just curious undecided

Salon is cheaper to setup and run; has higher ROI, but you need to install camera(s).

The market size with regard to hair cut is far bigger than that of laundry.
