<p>[QUOTE=&quot;saltysam-1, post: 1653336, member: 23368&quot;]Start by getting your degree in Business Administration. It would also help if your minor was in finance. Then about 1 year in advance of opening, start searching your real estate market for locations. You will need to negotiate the lease, buy fixturing, signage, insurance, etc... You will need to have a cash reserve of $100,000 PLUS your inventory. You will need that reserve to buy from your walk-ins and pay for incidentals, payroll, travel to shows, advertising etc....especially that first year of operation. Anything less than this will invite failure. And if the good Lord is willing, we won&#039;t be in a financial melt down, war or global social upheaval. Then post this question in the next 9-14 years and get more accurate information.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
