Hi,
I lucked out. A local retail store closed their business and the owner only wanted $150 a month rent. It's a retail store, and right on main street. It's small, but perfect for me. Those of you who have retail shops. Have you found anything, trinkets and or products that have done well. Of course I'm going to be offering the standard plaques and such. I was worried about having a laser in a retail environment, but the city changed the laws last year in my area and now allow en-closed laser engraving systems. I finally got my business license and safety all done. So I'm now open for business.
