Nothing for certain yet, but my better half and I are thinking of opening a small shop. My initial thoughts were just to have it as a computer workshop / related selling space, but then to be honest that could be ran from it anyway with the space for it to be something extra.
My initial thoughts are possibilities of....
* A good old traditional second hand shop - nothing along the cash converters type of place. A simple "if it sells we'll charge you X% for selling it" approach.
* An eBay trading shop for those who don't-do online. We order items in for a small fee, or sell your items online etc.
* A used appliance shop (although one has recently failed in Stafford)
* A homely members-only coffee lounge that charges a small weekly fee for you to have unlimited access to somewhere you can meet with friends, make yourself hot drinks and generally just relax for as long as you like. A few sofas and coffee tables, the daily newspapers to read etc. Kind of a home-from-home for the times when you just need to look at a different 4 walls and have some company. (although I love the thought of this, I'm not sure about popularity)
Basically we can access a shop premises on a short term month-by-month rent so we wouldn't have to commit to anything heavy while we try something out
Your suggestions please?
