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, be sure to learn as much as you can from somebody who is already in the business. If you think your local competitors will give you advice, you're being overoptimistic. What's in it for them?
However, a fellow entrepreneur who has started a security seals business in a location that is not competitive to you can be a great learning resource for you, provided that you won't be directly competing with them. 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.
Want the scoop on finding a security seals business entrepreneur who is willing to advise you because you live in different cities?

Reasons to Pursue a Security Seals Business Acquisition
As a rule, would-be startup owners are better off buying an existing security seals business. But what's so great about a security seals business acquisition?
The availability of acquisition capital should be a major factor in your decision. Investors and lenders have it and you need it. Yet many are hesitant to fund startups, preferring instead to fund business purchases.
Although there are a lot of factors to consider, the decision to buy a business to get acquisition capital almost always pays off.
Consider Buying a Franchise
As an entrepreneur, your chances surviving in business are greatly increased if you become a franchisee rather than going it alone.
Before you consider starting a security seals business, you may want to assess whether buying a franchise could make it easy to get started.
