I am just curious how many of your people working at your shop are certified, or have installed more than 3 cd players in there entire life? Just because I have cleaner installs than best buy when I am half asleep doesn't mean I can just go open up a shop, treat people like crap, and expect to make it. Go ahead, open your shop. But be forewarned, your business will reflect on how well you treat your customers, wiht prices, installation, and above all-customer service.

Racist punks!

Well, if he is smart.. He'll try and market not just the local area.. Depending on what all he does, but for most cases, labor is where the $$ is at.. Maybe he can try and swing in other customers with other ideas for cars... Not just an import scene in generalll..
Ex:'s.. OilChanges, Detailing, Tune-Ups, Get contracts w/ Audio Dealers, Accessories, etc
Anyways, the $$ needed to start a business is quite high; esp. since he'll have to make a name for himself and that could take a long time.. How are you going to pay your employees if your not getting business?? Some loans will be needed, insurance, and purchase of tools, and have stock of whatever else you try and sell... The list goes on..
But I question myself. medium cust. service and great work vs. great cust. service and medium/poor work.. I'd take the med. cust/serv over the great cust/serv and med/poor work, cuz the work is permanent, the cust/serv is just how you feel about the place. -

I wanted to go into hiding but christ, when asians are making mexican comments then you know this shit is wrong! You would think that the asians would band against that retarded thinking. Racism is rampant in f/m area, even among us minorities

saying that bosnians tend to spend a lot of money...is not racism...

I don't think an asian can be racist, (except against whites). we are a minority in the fm area, so it's tough.

Im coming into this conversation a lil late.... but I agree with what most of you said about upsetting the customer base and starting up a lil drama. A few years ago there was a shop in Minot that did the samething.... they lasted the summer. Troy and Blake will know exactly who Im talking about. The stories sound very similar.
I also agree jumping into flooded market may not be a wise decision, but its your money do as you wish... I hope all works well. I've got a idea brewing in my head but Im worried about competition as well. Not really from anyone in fargo, but from people online.

Um...pretty sure ANYONE can be racist. If you are of one race, and are speaking about another race, what you say can potentially be racist. You could even be racist against your own race. It has nothing to do with who is the minority/majority in a particular area. -

I think you have a mis-conception of the Asian population. If you've ever been to any cities with large asian populations you'll find the uneducated are just as racist as any other similar group.
Being the minority in a population doesn't mean that your not racist, it just means you have a better chance of being misunderstood.
Again, to be objective you can never group people as a race, only as individuals; there are too many variables invovled.
