Obstacle faced by new business
1. Lack of publicity- not having at publicity from the start leads to low amount of customer
1. Lack of skillful worker- new shops usually have little to no experienced workers, which might cause
dissatisfaction in customers
1. Customer’s preference- everyone has their own barber/salon preference and will hardly try out a new
shop
Recommendation
Son and Dad Barber Garage Barbershop
1. Space
Consider expanding the shop as it can only
accomodate one customer at a time.
2. Pricing
The price range (RM30-40) is quite high. Lowering the price might help attracting new customers.
1. Location
Located at a industrial area with low population.
Moving to a highly populated area might help boost
the business.
2. Product and Service
Consider providing service to woman and hot towel service.
