I argree with Bing!!! I had my heart set on having my own shop, but I had no money and my family had no money to help me, so I team up with a guy who own a tire shop in scarborough and I realize it is not easy. Bills- Hydro- Gas- shop insurance-Rent- etc.

If you can’t make atleast $300 a day for 6 days a week with the clients you have it will be very hard, you will be paying out of pocket to stay in business.

If you can get a contract with a company or dealer with 10 or more fleets that will help you alot.

Try this first!!! sign up to criagslist and other car sites and advertise your tires, you will get alot of calls.
