Every year, there are more and more people who want to drive a car, so the services of driving schools are always in demand.
The provision of training services is one of the simplest and least costly types of business. In this article you will find information on how to create your own driving school.
We will talk about what documents are required for this, how much investment this type of business requires.
Seat selection
Choosing an office space and a training ground for driving lessons is the first thing you need to do before opening a driving school. In Moscow, where more than eleven million inhabitants live, it is more expedient to place it in areas remote from the center.
An ideal place would be near any higher education institution or business center where there are no other competitors. This choice is due to the fact that students (for the future) or employees of firms and enterprises who have already accumulated their own vehicles are usually trained in driving a car.
The premises of the driving school will need to be agreed with the fire safety authorities and SES. It will take about 20 thousand rubles.
As for the landfill, it is easier to rent it at the traffic police (this can save time and money on obtaining a certificate of compliance of the driving platform with existing requirements).
Driving school opening
Before starting the state registration of an enterprise, it is necessary to determine its form of organization. The most acceptable for this type of activity in Russia are LLC (limited liability company) and UE (unitary enterprise).
But the choice of one of them does not have decisive importance, it all depends only on the size of the authorized capital and the number of owners. The following is the observance of all the rules established by law - registration with government agencies, obtaining a license to provide services.
Company registration
How to open a driving school in Moscow? To do this, you must submit documents for registration with the tax authorities at the location of the company or the residence of its owner. Also, to conduct financial activities, a driving school will need several bank accounts, which also need to be notified of a tax account.
Obtaining a license and certification
To operate a driving school, it is necessary to obtain a license from the Ministry of Education, as well as certificates of conformity of training vehicles and a driving area (if one is used) with all the stated traffic police requirements. The same applies to the knowledge of school teachers. In order to obtain a license, the following documents are required:
- rental agreement for a driving platform;
- lease of a classroom (subject to registration with the Moscow Property Committee).
Typically, the procedure for obtaining all the necessary permits takes from 4 to 12 months.
How to open a driving school in Moscow without a license? Is it possible? Yes, this option can take place provided that it is an external school. Such an organization provides students with a minimum set of lectures and relies on consciousness and the ability to independently obtain the knowledge of the students themselves. The external school cooperates with instructors who have their own car and are private entrepreneurs.
In fact, such an organization only deals with the promotion of services. Everything else rests with the instructors and the students themselves.How to open a driving school in Moscow of this type and is it worth it? As practice shows, people do not really trust such organizations, and therefore prefer to pay more and go to study at a standard driving school, where they will be sure that they will receive a full range of services.
Necessary equipment
One of the main tasks of the founder of a driving school is to ensure the material base of the organization. About 200-250 thousand rubles will need to be spent on equipment.
These include desks, chairs and computers for students, a blackboard in the classroom, furniture and computers for employees' workstations. You will also need demonstration materials: posters, manuals, interactive whiteboard. And also in each class there should be an engine with attachments, a gearbox, the rear axle of the car assembly with a brake mechanism (preferably in the context). You can buy this equipment in a specialized store, or you can buy an old car and remove spare parts from it.
Calculation of costs and potential revenues
To open a driving school from scratch in Moscow is very expensive. But to save money, you can not buy cars, but conclude an agreement of constant cooperation with experienced instructors with your own car and prefer to rent it when buying a room.
Even if you take into account this savings, a driving school will fly a pretty penny. Opening it will cost about 600-700 thousand rubles. It is also necessary to take into account the fact that each employee, even before the company begins to make enough money, must pay a salary.
The main income of a driving school is student fees. The cost of a three-month course for one student is 10-15 thousand rubles (already after taxes).
If 20 people will study in one group, then for three months they will pay a driving school 200-300 thousand rubles. Excluding all monthly costs, the net profit for one training course (3 months) will be approximately 150-200 thousand rubles. Consequently, a driving school can pay off in a year and a half.
Competition
No one will argue that in such a metropolis as Moscow, the competition in the service sector is huge. Here the law of natural selection operates - the strongest wins. Therefore, it is extremely important to pay maximum attention to the promotion of the services of a new driving school, attract potential customers in all possible ways and build an impeccable reputation. This is the only way to succeed!
