In the competitive world of barbering, understanding barber business models can be the difference between a thriving shop and one that struggles to pay the rent.
At Operation Glass Door, we believe in systems, not guesswork. Here are 3 proven strategies to master this area of your business.
1. Identify the bottleneck
Is your appointment-only model limiting walk-ins? Or is your walk-in shop chaotic? Pivoting starts with data.
2. Hybrid Models
Consider a 70/30 split. 70% appointments for stability, 30% walk-ins for new blood. It's the safest pivot.
3. Communicate Early
Don't surprise your clients. Use email and barber business models specific campaigns to explain the change 30 days in advance.
