Find Good Remote Business Advice
Once you've finished assessing the competion, it's a wise move to learn as much as you can from somebody who is already in the business. If you think owners of nearby jewelers businesses will give you advice, think again. It'd be crazy for them to teach you the business.
But, a person who owns a jewelers business on the other side of the country can be a great learning resource for you, once they realize that you are not going to directly compete with them in their community. 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.

It's easy. Here's a link you can use to find a mentor outside of your area.
Don't Rule Out Franchising
Your chances for doing well in business greatly improve when you choose to franchise and benefit from the prior work of others and their lessons learned.
