Before you open up shop, make sure you know what you will offer to your customers that provides a significant advantage over your competition's offering.

Learning More About the Industry

If you want to open a government information services business it's a smart move to talk to somebody who is already in the business. Local competitors are not going to give you the time of day, mind you. What's in it for them?

Fortunately, somebody who runs a government information services business in another town will be much more likely to talk with you, as long as they don't view you as a competitive threat. In that case, the business owner may be more than happy to discuss the industry with you. In my experience, you may have to call ten business owners in order to find one who is willing to share his wisdom with you.
