Prior to opening your doors for business, be sure you fully understand the competitive landscape and where your new business will fit in.

Turning Competitors Into Collaborators

After you've evaluated your local competitors, it's a wise move to speak with somebody who is already in the business. It's very unlikely that the local competition will talk to you. What's in it for them?

Fortunately, somebody who runs a blinds retail and custom business outside of your community can be a great learning resource for you, given that you don't compete with them in their area. In fact, they are often very willing to share startup advice with you. If you are persistent, you can find a business mentor who is willing to help you out.
