How tough is the competition in the market you are considering? If the competition is too tough, you may need to think about starting the business in a different area or even start a completely different business instead.

Studying the Market

If you are interested in starting a hair dryers business, be sure 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 hair dryers business in a different city will be much more likely to talk with you, as long as they don't view you as a competitive threat. In fact, they are often very willing to share startup advice with you. It can take a while to find an entrepreneur who is willing to talk, but it's well worth the effort.
