OK... I am planning on going to school but I aalso want to get into business already. I have this idea so good and I have been researching it all around about the effects . I have a partner from the army who would want to go into it with me and also we have enough money to make it work. My question... I don't have any skills yet, just an idea and some dreams. What do you think?

Sounds interesting Dave.

I spent 11 years in retail upper management, one thing that I found necessary is location, location and oh yes... location.

Retail sales are a different animal than going to the prospects to sell. You have to get the customers to come to you with branding, advertising, marketing, displays, pricing, value, quality of product, etc.

Hi, dave22!

Like Stringer has mentioned, the location of the store is very important.

Do you already have an idea for the location of your store?

Thanks!
