본 연구는 샵 창업 시 중요사항에 따른 피부관리샵 운영 특성 및 직업만족도에 대한 차이를 살펴보고, 보다 나은 소규모 피부관리샵 운영을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 연구대상은 현재 전국 각 지역에서 소규모 피부관리샵을 운영중인 원장들을 대상으로 2016년 1월~ 3월의 기간을 두고 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구결과, 샵 창업 시 교통수단 및 주차편리성을 중요사항으로 생각한 운영자들이 오랜 근무년수, 샵 운영기간, 높은 월 고정수입, 최고수익의 비율이 각각 가장 높았다. 직업만족도(F=3.223, p<.05)에서는 창업 시 중요사항으로 유동인구를 중요하게 생각하는 운영자가 가장 높았고(M=4.11), 투자비용을 중요하게 생각하는 운영자의 직업만족도가 가장 낮았다(M=3.41). 세부적으로 직업 재선택 의향(F=2.960, p<.05)에서는 교통수단 및 주차편리성(M=3.95)을 삽 창업 시 중요하게 생각하는 운영자가 가장 높았다. 따라서 샵 창업 시 중요사항에 따른 안정적인 운영을 위해서는 유동인구가 많고, 교통수단 및 주차 편리성이 높은 위치파악과 선정으로 고객의 접근성과 직업만족도를 높이는 것이 필요할 것이다. 또한 후속 연구에서는 운영특성에 따른 마켓팅 전략에 관한 지속적인 노력과 연구가 수반되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.
