Know-How Exchange : Strategy

You are starting at the wrong end. This is MARKETINGprofs, not SOURCINGprofs.

The way you start your business is by understanding your target audience and what they need/want, what they wish they had but can't find, what they value, how they make choices and purchase decisions.

Let's say you find the products and open your store. How will anyone find out about it? What's the marketing plan? What will make you any different from the other stores in your area that sell similar products?

Unless and until you can answer those questions, you're wasting your time looking for sources of products. The issue at this early stage isn't the product line; it's the market need you're going to satisfy.

Start at the beginning, not the end.
