To get started, find a local shop, and work there part-time. Initially, focus on helping with the cleaning and gradually build trust. Over time, there will be opportunities for small fixing jobs, and you may eventually be able to charge for your work. It is important to maintain a balance and not charge too little or too much. Charging a little less than your competitors can help you establish your business.
Remember to charge for your work and avoid doing favors or creating tabs for clients as they may take advantage of it. Take note that special order parts usually take time to deliver, and they are non-refundable. Miscommunication in this aspect may lead to bad sales. Running costs like lights, advertising, manuals, etc. should be accounted for, and mark-up prices up to 100% are common. This may seem a lot, but it ensures that you are breaking even when you sell at this price.
Make sure to charge for labor costs as well as parts, as repairs take time, and time is money. When creating a store, location is crucial. Be patient as word takes time to get around, and it takes time to build trust in your business.
