Thinking About Owning a Business? Start Here!
Benchmark 1: Will this business still exist in 5, 10, or 20 years?
Hairdressing is a primary needs serviceit can't be replaced by Amazon, Uber, or AI. The tools may evolve, but the service itself remains personal, local, and hands-on. The model is unlikely to change, and demand is consistent.
Benchmark 2: Am I better off staying an employee or owning my own business?
In Canberra, the median salary for a qualified hairdresser ranges from $54,000 to $66,000. In contrast, Find A Way Studio delivered proprietor earnings (PEBITDA) of $258,052 in FY24. That's 2 times the salary if two people work the business.
Benchmark 3: What if you pay yourselves $100,000 each?
Assuming salaries of $200,000 combined, the surplus profit would be $58,052. At an 8% annual interest rate on an $80,000 purchase, the annual interest cost is $6,400. That leaves $51,652 in profit per year after interest. At this rate, the initial investment could be paid off in approximately 1.5 years.
