A Good Source of Advice
After you've evaluated your local competitors, it's a smart move to learn as much as you can from somebody who is already in the business. If you think owners of nearby health and beauty retailers will give you advice, think again. Why would they want to educate a future competitor?
On the other hand, an individual who has a health and beauty retailer outside of your community may be more than happy to give you a few tips, provided that you won't be directly competing with them. Indeed, many experienced entrepreneurs enjoy offering advice to startup entrepreneurs. Our estimate is that you may have to contact many business owners to find one who is willing to share his wisdom with you.
