Tennessee’s Top Rated Local® Barber Shops Award Winner: Jerry’s Barbershop

Top Rated Local® is pleased to announce that Jerry’s Barbershop is a 2019 award winner for barber shops in Tennessee!

If you’re in need of a great haircut in Knoxville, you won’t find a better barber shop to turn to than Jerry’s Barbershop.

Jerry’s Barbershop has received more than 175 reviews on four verified sites with an average rating of 4.91 stars, earning them an outstanding Rating Score™ of 97.15 and a 2019 Top Rated Local award for ranking among the top five barber shops in all of Tennessee!

Here’s just one of their many five-star reviews:

“Jerry was the first one to ever cut my son’s hair. That was almost 13 years ago, and he still does to this day! I’ve never found a nicer person or a better atmosphere than Jerry’s! I highly recommend this place to everyone needing a great barber!” – Tammy W.

Not Your Average Barber Shop

Jerry Daugherty, the owner of Jerry’s Barbershop, generously gave us a few minutes of her time to tell us about this one-of-a-kind business and its award-winning online reputation.

The first thing we wanted to know was what it is that sets Jerry’s Barbershop apart from the many other barber shops in Tennessee. Here’s Jerry’s response:

“You have to separate yourself. I wouldn’t try to get someone to leave their barber shop if they had one, but I can guarantee that, once they came here, they would want to stay for the environment. It’s somewhere a single guy can come to, but it’s also somewhere where a family of four can come.”

We also wanted to know why they do what they do at Jerry’s Barbershop and how they work to make the world a better place. Here’s what Jerry had to say:

“Every day, I want to come to work and make that guy or girl have a better day. If you put a fresh cut on somebody, they will already be in a better mood. If you can stand here and be a friend to them, customer by customer, you are making the world a better place.”

Building Success by Providing the Best Products at the Best Prices

When we asked Jerry about Jerry’s Barbershop’s secret to such a strong online reputation, he said:

“My format was to try to emulate the place I worked before, which was a good neighborhood barber shop. We have the best product at the best price. Guys like to come to take a load off and chill. You sell yourself as much as the haircut. We are active in events and sporting events, and are a part of the community. We are hands on, and we really care.”

Outside of building the kind of online reputation any business owner would envy, Jerry’s Barbershop has spread the word about who they are and what they do by being involved in their community, as well as through the word of mouth spread by their happy clients.

Clearly, Jerry knows a thing or two about growing a business and building an online reputation. Here’s his expert advice for the many other business owners out there:

“Your character comes out in your business. Really find out who’s in your community and know your area. Be there for the community. Know the community. Make your product the best, and offer yourself in your service. You have to be involved in your community. Add a little bit of personal service, offer a good product and extend yourself, because that is what is missing in the digital age.”


Congratulations to the team at Jerry’s Barbershop for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and thank you so much, Jerry, for taking the time to speak with us!
