how much he can give for a dollar, instead of how little he can
give for a dollar, is bound to succeed."

There are two winnable approaches for a business plan for automotive parts
store: carry very unique parts, and/or sell on the internet.
KEY CONSIDERATION
Manny, Mo and Jack are hard to compete with. So don't. Find your niche
elsewhere. Perhaps exotic cars. Or jalopies. Or classic Mustangs. Then
identify your market, both locally and internationally.
STRONGEST ADVANTAGE
Guys have ongoing affairs with cars. (Some gals, too. But mostly guys.)
They will pay top dollar for a part that they need for old Bessie, and be
thrilled that you have it.
STRONGEST DISADVANTAGE
It's easy for auto parts stores to turn into junk yards. Having a variety
of inventory is good; having junk is not. Junk does not help your
balance sheet, no matter how much is on it. More to the point,
junk doesn't help your business.
OVERCOMING THE DISADVANTAGE WITH YOUR BUSINESS PLAN FOR AUTOMOTIVE PARTS
STORE
Prove that you have the experience to make the store successful.
Just loving cars isn't enough. Your passion is important, but so is your
managerial ability. Where did you get your background in the industry? How
many years of experience do you really have?
And, more importantly, how effectively can you sell your product over the
internet? Auto parts stores used to be a telephone type of business. No
more. The internet has taken over. If you do not have a website, get one.
Learn how to make that website work for you.
Prove that you have the marketing background and skill to make the auto
parts store successful.
A business plan for automotive parts store is rather a cold document. The
business itself, however, is very people oriented. This is definitely a
business that needs your skill in establishing business relationships.
In today's banking system, it is often difficult to talk with the decision
makers. So find other ways of communicating with them. Create a video.
Burn a CD that features an interview with you. Put a video on your
website.
I keep coming back to the website. It's important in this business. Focus
on it. Use it to your advantage.
OTHER PLUSSES FROM YOUR BUSINESS PLAN FOR AUTOMOTIVE PARTS STORE
Demonstrate that you have identified both a source for your products, and
buyers for your products. They can be next door, or around the world. The
location doesn't matter, as long as they are there.
Keep your financial estimates in line with the industry, with
consideration for just how unique your product line will be.

My husband wanted to open a shop for
Mustang parts, and my "job" was to get the money. In this day
and age, that was no small task. Honestly, I bought three
different business plan books, and this (the 7 Step Business Plan
for Automotive Parts Store) was the only one I
understood. I still don't understand the financials, but I did
what you said: I researched all the numbers and took them to
my accountant. Not only did my accountant run the numbers, but he
gave us some spectacular charts to use in the business plan too.
Thank you for having this available for people like me.

I don't understand the part about
figuring out how much inventory we need to have. I tried going
into a parts store and counting up boxes, but that didn't work too
good. I still don't know if we are going to have enough when
we open. The rest of it was pretty easy to do.
Skip Connough
I'm pretty happy. My banker
sent me home with a spell checker (never did know how to spel).
But the second time around looked pretty good. I know cars pretty
good. But I didn't know I could write a business plan for an
auto parts store.
Patya Viranylova
Business
is booming! Whoever said not to open a retail store now
didn't know what they were talking about. Manny, Mo and
Jack are on the other side of town, so they aren't even any
competition to us.
C. Shane Johnson
Seems
like having your own store is just so much more relaible these
days. I'm glad I'm doing it.
