Step 1
Analyze the market in your city and choose the product that you will sell. Then find a place for your future store. There should not be a single outlet with a similar product nearby, otherwise you will have to constantly fight with a competitor for a buyer.
Step 2
Pay close attention to the design of your store. People are attracted to the looks. If the facade and showcases look presentable enough, this already inspires confidence in a potential buyer. There is a high probability that he will not pass by.
