Carwash business okay pa ba?

[jhnkvn]

Why the condescending tone regarding car wash businesses? I'd take the entrepreneurial investment of starting out a business over any Europe trip anytime. Dead-end? How can it be a dead-end when you can branch out to detailing, painting, etc. businesses? Want to innovate? Turn it something like a local autogeek site. Bottom line is: any business worth profiting is worth doing.

Selling the land now on the premise of spending the receipts for a Euro-trip seems like a bad investment for me. A Europe trip doesn't guarantee intellectual and entrepreneurial enlightenment and it seems pretty stupid to sacrifice current assets for questionable future returns. A better route would be to use the assets to generate future returns.

---

As for where to get, we have local distributors naman of products. Such as Meguiar's office in Kamias, Ravi of Optimum, Charles of Microtex, etc. It would take you good to try PMing our fellow Tsikot guru detailers such as umi for tips in setting up ;)

Buying "by the gallon" lowers your costs significantly.

Most of your profits would come from detailing really.

pretty much this, only dumbasses would spend money to go on a trip where you'll gain nothing instead of investing your money into something. btw pop3corn how will your euro-trip pay off someday? when you're old an poor you can tell your grandchildren stories about your euro-trip?

even if it's just a carwash a business is a business. every business starts out small, how you manage your business will determine if it will grow.

depende sa business. aral ka ng business management to clean cars. weh! grandchildren don't look up to you even if you amassed wealth or provided for them. grandchildren will look up to you if you have spirit and enthusiasm over what you do and thereby you infect them permanently. and the probability of that happening is (inspiring them by your enthusiasm) almost nil, as you will only impose your greatness and feats over them. chances are you become overbearing pa nga, and will you get hurt bec. one-sided magyayabang ka sa GC mo tapos, pag hindi nila na-reciprocate, you end up hurt, alone ... and old.

kaya nga sabi ko sa inyo punta kayo Europe, ang dami ko natutunan sa mga ancient people dun. this process of overcompensating for tomorrow should stop.

Sir, I beg to disagree.. I have a Business Management degree (major in Entrepreneurship) from DLSU.. Our professors who are very successful businessmen started out small.. They were not big-time agad.. And, they encouraged us to start small.. To have calculated risks..

Even Mr Henry Sy started his business empire by selling shoes, remember? His grandchildren are very proud of him now..

Our fellow tsikoter will be starting with a carwash business.. What's wrong with that.. After a while, he can expand.. Esp he has a low overhead cost (he owns the lot).



Good luck bro!!! My brother will also set up a carwash soon..

may term si Karl Marx dyan eh dehumanization. it's the process of foregoing your true potential bec. mas prioritize mo ang capitalization of of your resources.

20 years now, you'll think about yourself, what did I really do in life - I clean cars for a living.

The thing is, you used dehumanization in a wrong context here. How can you say that the threadstarter is foregoing his true potential by being an entrepreneur? If we look at it philosophically (as you mentioned Karl Marx), what is his true potential? Nobody knows. Not even he knows. Is it humane to go travel around the world? Not necessarily. It's a luxury but it doesn't mean you're being inhuman.

All I know is that everybody aspires to life without financial troubles. Maybe to the extreme of aspiring to be a future billionaire or maybe just a dream of providing for his future family. For whatever it may be, a practical allocation and capitalization of your current resources is important.

Wala naman sinabi this would forever be his business. Most people simply love a sideline here and there.. which isn't bad per se as you build up work experience here and there but in the case it becomes his primary business, then it isn't bad at all. I'm pretty sure the likes of Meguiars is enduring and rakes in more revenue than most of our companies here in the Philippines. Like I said, any business that's profitable is worth investing in.

Well, aggressive tone si Foresterx.. but I can't blame him nor you for that matter because that's his opinion. A Euro-trip isn't bad at all.... heck, majority of my wealth is invested in Europe (I love crises) so I wouldn't call it downright worthless. Pero ano difference ng EU sa Philippines? The fundamental proponents of being successful is the same NO MATTER which part of the globe you go. Philippines? We have Henry Sy riding on his Maybachs naman diba?

I study business management to clean cars... so what? Ayan yun masama na stigma that accompanies some of our so-called "elite" (which my family is part of financially-speaking). Holding a degree doesn't give you the right to look down on low-paying jobs -- heck some of the most successful people in the world haven't even finished college. Want an example? Take Wayne Huizenga who founded Waste Management Inc. -- who literally worked at a garbage collection company.. he's uhh... founded 3 more companies that was included in the Fortune Top 1000 companies?

There's nothing wrong in imposing your greatness to your grandson. If your grandson thinks you set the bar too high, then something's wrong with your grandson's personality. Set him up right to be successful - think positive and that there's nothing you can't do. Wala naman correlation ang success ng grandfather mo sa success mo eh.

Mga boss, balak kasi ng mom ko pati ako na magtayo ng carwash. Sarili naming lupa so hindi kami magrerent. Ask ko lang mga expert opinion niyo kung okay pa ba to as business? Medyo business minded naman nanay ko kahit papano. Hehe yung place pala sa moonwalk, pque. TIA!

benta mo na lang lupa nyo then spend part of it and go to a vacation in Europe. the intellectual investment will pay off sometime in the future.

aanhin mo ang carwash biz. yun mga business na ganyan, pampabobo lang and those I consider DEADENDs, wala ka matutunan bago and you will just become parasitical in a sense, na habang tumatanda ka eh, mag-rely ka dyan. and for what, just to clean CARS. what a waste of life devt.

Puwede lumago into a painting center yung car wash, soon baka pati auto shop or restoration shop if nakita na mahusay mag-trabaho mga tao mo at magalig palakad mo. Puwede din magbenta ka ng high-end oil and fuel filters sa carwash mo if marami ka na suki. There are many possibilities basta never be contented with your current business.

In fairness, going to Europe now is good since they're in a recession.

However, setting up a business now is a great idea since borrowing rates are really low in the Philippines. Just be sure you have a viable business plan and execute it properly.

I am more like "I save lives" well I am a nurse. Gusto ko lang may extra income and I love cars. Kaya ayan ang napili kong business ;)
