I want to open a car wash shop. Can the professional and Daxia give me some advice?

Hello, I am engaged in equipment and products in this industry, and I can provide you with professional answers.

1. Preparatory work before opening.

1. Market positioning.

The most common thing to do before opening a store should be market research. Investigate the daily operations of other peers in the location. The main things to understand are the business level, customer flow and business projects. Only after fully understanding the opponent's situation can we better formulate our own business route and learn from each other's strengths. Whether to be a food stall or a specialty store is very critical, as it is related to future sustainable development and new business expansion.

2. Store preparation.

Preliminary investment

1. Preliminary investment is about 50,000 to 100,000 yuan. Equipment investment: counters, facade decoration, computers and simple furniture, a one-time investment of about 20,000 yuan.

2.3 months of operating expenses: When a new store opens, it must be prepared for two or three months of no business. It is best to prepare in advance about 30,000 yuan for three months of operating expenses.

3. Purchase payment: When a new store opens, the store must prepare car decoration materials worth approximately 20,000 yuan. Of course, if there is a supplier who is willing to let you sell the decoration materials on a consignment basis and then settle the bill after selling them, then this cost can be saved.

4. Handling fee: Generally speaking, for an enterprise with a registered capital of 500,000 yuan, the agency fee is about 3,000 to 4,000 yuan.

B. Monthly expenses

1. Rent: Rent a 20-40 square meter storefront near a higher-end residential area, plus water, electricity and property management fees, generally The cost is 2,000-5,000 yuan per month.

2. Employee wages: To open a small car decoration shop, you must hire at least one electrician and two film stickers. The monthly salary of an electrician is about 1,200-1,500 yuan, and the monthly salary of a film sticker is about 1,000 yuan.

3. Tax: The monthly fixed tax is about 500 yuan.

4. Monthly social expenses: not very high, about 1,000 yuan is enough.

C. Monthly income

According to market conditions, the charge for ordinary vehicle decoration of a Passat is about 3,000-5,000 yuan. , the fee is 2,000-3,000 yuan. However, there are relatively few vehicles with overall decoration, and most of them have partial decoration. If a small store operates normally, its monthly turnover can reach 40,000-50,000 yuan.

The gross profit margin of automobile decoration is 40, and the monthly gross profit is about 15,000 yuan to 20,000 yuan. After deducting various expenses, it is the monthly net profit.

3. Business projects.

1. New car waxing

2. Car glaze sealing and beauty

3. Waxing the paint surface

4. Recruiting employees. It is best to recruit more skilled workers when recruiting workers. In addition to being able to quickly get into work and get the store on track quickly, he can also be arranged to train other novices. In addition, it should be noted that do not indicate "recruiting beautician" on the recruitment notice. Because most of the people recruited in this way only do work such as waxing, polishing and sealing, and will never wash the car. When recruiting people, you must recruit people who are willing to do anything. If you have such a master, you would rather pay more. In addition to reducing unnecessary idlers and reducing store operating expenses, it can also set a good example in the team.

5. Decorate the store. When renovating a beauty workshop, it should be more convenient for future use, and consider as many aspects as possible, and arrange water storage (pool), drainage (sewage), water filtration (sewage), etc. Electrical sockets are also Consideration should be given to issues such as moisture resistance and short circuit prevention. The workshop design should be as simple as possible, and the wiring and piping should be reasonable. It is best to use a separate switch for the workshop's power consumption to prevent future short-circuit tripping from affecting the normal power consumption of the entire store. In addition, we must take into account future expansion needs and reserve space for future new business expansion needs, such as the location of the film room and lift. I would like to give some suggestions to friends who are preparing to renovate:

(1 ) Car parking spaces should be designed with more than three parking spaces. If the area is not enough, there should be at least two spaces. Otherwise, it will be too busy on sunny days after rain.

(2) It is best to install a hoist. Whether it is changing engine oil or spraying chassis armor, it is the best way to show your professional image to customers.

(3) Keep the film room, and it is best to set it up near the outside instead of huddled inside the store. When applying the film, close the glass door so that pedestrians can see it when passing by.

6. Equipment purchase. Let me list the equipment you need to buy:

(1) A Kuolong computer car washing machine, which is an essential piece of equipment for every professional car beauty shop.

(2) One carpet dryer. Preferably stainless steel casing.

(3) Two vacuum cleaners are best. When I first opened my business, there were few workers and I could only buy one.

(4) 2 waxing machines. When there is a lot of traffic or when work is in a hurry, construction can be done at the same time, so it can be faster.

(5) 2 polishing machines. The reason is the same as above.

(6) One ozone sterilizer or high-temperature sterilizer. Ozone disinfection machines are less practical and less dangerous than high-temperature machines.

(7) One water gun, used for washing foot pads, etc.

(8) Several buckets, towels, and brushes.

7. System setting. Any company must have employee codes and use systems to restrain employees instead of bosses supervising employees. Specific details will be provided below.

8. Join to study. If you consider joining a brand, you need to make preparations in this regard, but it is not easy to choose a good one among many beauty brands. Therefore, before joining, you must understand the strength of the brand, the help it can provide, the popularity of the company and products, the conditions and fees for joining, etc.

Even if you choose a good chain brand, you must read the contract clearly when signing the contract and understand it thoroughly before signing. Otherwise, if problems arise in the future, some unnecessary quarrels will inevitably occur. No matter how beautifully written the franchise contract is, it is very different from reality. Rather, what he writes about is super-normal operating conditions, excluding rainy days, power outages, water outages, holidays and other factors. In addition, they usually emphasize income and do not calculate the cost of expenses for everyone. Even if the cost is listed, it only briefly calculates common expenses such as wages, rent, water, electricity, taxes, etc., but does not list other miscellaneous expenses, such as buckets, water shoes, uniforms, brushes, and cleaning agents. , depreciation of machine equipment accessories and maintenance, workers’ food expenses, worker housing rent, workers’ commissions and a series of other expenses. These are all operating costs, and strangely, the franchise headquarters always fail to list them one by one. It cannot be said to be intentional, it can only be said to be "well-intentioned". Only when you actually join can you see where the problem lies, but by then it's usually hard to get out of the situation. Although you can't knock down a whole boat of people with one stick, if you want to join, you must be mentally prepared.

9. Product purchase. If you choose to join a chain brand, most of them will use the products provided by the brand. But if you don’t choose to join, what products should you choose to use? In fact, it is not difficult. It depends on whether your market research work is detailed enough. By carefully observing our peers, it is not difficult to find that the products they usually use are of the Kuolong brand. Since everyone has chosen this brand of products, it will not be much worse.
