    Where are you planning to open the shop?

    There are a lot of stores so finding your niche is important.

    Thanks Richard

    It will be in Dublin.  I agree that finding a niche is important.  I really want this to be successful for obvious reasons but I also want to bring something new to the market as I know how frustrating it can be when you are looking for something specific and all the large stores are stocking much the same as each other.  So any feedback would be very welcome.

    Thanks again

    My only advice is not to sell something cause you have too, sell something you believe in yourself, it will be much easier and your customers will be much happier. Put yourself in your customer shoes.
