Find Good Remote Business Advice
After you've evaluated your local competitors, it's a wise move to learn from folks who are already in business. Local competitors are not going to give you the time of day, mind you. The last thing they want to do is help you to be a better competitor.
On the other hand, an individual who has a crystals business on the other side of the country may be willing to share their entrepreneurial wisdom with you, after they realize you reside far away from them and won't be stealing their local customers. 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.

Don't Forget About Franchising As an Option
Your odds of surviving in business are much better if you become a franchisee in lieu of doing everything yourself.
If you planning on starting a crystals business, you should assess whether there are good franchise opportunities available that might be the right move for you.
