Cost of investment:
The major elements involved in setting up a Shih Tzu Groom Shop are:
1. Rent and security deposits.
2. Renovation
3. Tools and equipment
4. Furniture and fixtures
5. Legal fees
6. Insurance
7. Advertising
8. Supplies
9. Cash reserve
The cost will depend upon your location and the materials you start out with. You can estimate at least $10,000 to start your Specialty Shih Tzu Grooming Shop.
Rent: Will vary according to the specific location. Rent in a major metropolitan center will be greater than in a rural area. A landlord will usually demand a security deposit in advance or with your first months rent. In addition, there will likely be deposits required for utilities.
Renovation: Is dependent upon the Shih Tzu Groom shops condition and your desire to alter or design the shop.
Tools and equipment: A basic assortment of clippers, blades, scissors, shampoos, brushes, combs, cosmetics for your Shih Tzu Groom Shop will cost at a minimum of $400. Heavy equipment such as dryers, cages and tables fitted with groom loops will cost at a minimum of $2,000.
Legal fees: If you choose a lawyer to negotiate a lease on the most favorable terms for your Shih Tzu Groom Shop, his or her services can cost more than $300.00. The investment may be well worth it, however, if you are unable to negotiate a favorable lease term yourself.
Insurance: Is a must have item.
Advertising: Before opening the doors to your Shih Tzu Groom Shop, you will want to advertise and promote the shop as quickly as possible. Ways of advertising could be through the Yellow Pages, newspapers, direct mail and flyers, at vet offices, pet supply warehouses and the internet. One page websites on the internet describing your business with e-mail and telephone numbers would be quite helpful. You would need to market and promote your website as well.
Supplies: Pet supplies such as designer pet clothing, shampoos, crme rinses, toys and treats, even a pet food distributorship such as HealthyPetNet Lifes Abundance could become quite prosperous in a busy Shih Tzu Grooming Shop. The possibilities for retailing pet supplies in a Shih Tzu Grooming Shop are endless.
Reserve cash: You will of course need to start out with a fair amount of reserve cash in your Shih Tzu Grooming Shop.
