The 10 Top Questions to Ask BEFORE Leasing a Store Space!
Once you have identified a site, or multiple sites of interest, you should then call the Landlord or Listing Broker to obtain all information like asking price per square foot, size of the available store, and set up a showing so that you can view the interior of the space.
Additional questions to keep in mind:

- Does the frontage (the number of feet of window space you have open to the street) provide enough visibility to the road?
- Is the bathroom strategically located in a spot that will not take up valuable floor or storage space?
- Is the ceiling in good shape?
- What is the age of the heating and air conditioning unit?
- What are the 1-3-5 mile radius demographics?
- What are the traffic counts at the intersection of the roads at the property?
- What is the access in and out of the property from the streets?
- Is there pylon signage available to you?
- Is there plenty of parking available to you?
- Look at the co-tenants in the shopping center. Are they complimentary uses to yours?

Business and Personal Social Media Accounts are Different - Understand How!
In today’s society social media is
used by the general public and by businesses worldwide. They both use social
media to share events, photos, and stories of current or past events. The
average person checks his or her social media accounts up to fifty times a day
for updates. Additionally, when he or she post on social media for their
personal account, they may think it is done in the same manner as posting for a
business. While it is true, posting on social media for a business is similar
to posting on a personal account, but there are some differences.

For example, social media is filled
everyday with thousands of family photos, vacation videos, and current events
happening in the world from both types of accounts, personal and business.
Additionally, both types of social media accounts are free to set up and to
use. On the other hand, when a business or person posts on social media; a
photo, video, or content, the post is seen by the online audience of both types
of accounts. Furthermore, a business and a personal account are allowed to give
their thoughts, in the form of content, about how they are feeling, or an
option on some current topic happening in the world. On the whole, both types of accounts are very
similar.
On the contrary, the motive for why a
business posts on social media is different then why a person post online. For
the most part, when a business posts photos or videos on social media it is
with the purpose of building a bond with the public. Unlike a personal account, who’s motive for
posting it to share information, events, and photos with family and
friends. While it is true, the online
public can see posts for both types of accounts, a business will have to pay to
have their posts seen by all the online audience. To this end, a business
account is not free in the same way as a personal account on social media.
More specifically, the biggest
difference between a personal social media account and a business social media
account is in the content being posted. To illustrate, a business has the
business’s brand to consider when posting content, photos, or videos.
Similarly, a business is selling when posting emotional stories, photos, and
videos on social media. As a result, the main reason a business posts on social
media is to market, sell, and promote the business to the public. In contrast,
the average person posts on social media to share his or her life with others. As
a result, social media for business and personal use are similar, but they have
different motives.

Three Keys to Business Ownership
Many working individuals dream of owning a
business rather than working for corporate America or a retail chain. The
thought of setting his or her own schedule, spending time with the family, and
being his or her own boss sounds wonderful.
Consequently, choosing the correct type of business to own is important
in fulfilling this non-corporate dream. While it may sound wonderful, there are a few vital factors to consider
before quitting a day job. Business
ownership requires, time, money, and good products for success.

Addressing the first of these factors -
time, the most commonly over looked; however, it is the life blood of a new
business. The first year will require
much time in establishing a business brand and product line than most business
owners anticipate. Additionally, the
store build out and set up will require many long days, nights, and weekend to
complete. If the business has no
employees, the business owner will be required to work all the store’s
operating hours. A new business owner
must be prepared to spend many long hours to accomplish his or her dream of
business ownership.
On the other hand, there is the issue of
money, or lack of it. Many new business
owners think, “build it” and “they” (the buying public) will come. Sadly, this is most often not the case; in
fact, it is many times the opposite. On average the first few years a new
business does not make a profit. The amount
of money needed to start, sustain, and market a new business is many times
grossly underestimated. Consequently, a
new business owner should be prepared for the “cost” of business ownership and
the “lack of revenue” the first few years.
Under these circumstances, a line of good
products to sell to the shopping public is vital for new business success. The influence of search engines, and social
media have created a more shopping savvy consumer. Monitoring the latest shopping trends, and
anticipating future trends is critical for a business to stay fresh and
current. A continuous line of good
products will secure business success in the constant changing shopping
world. Therefore, a new business owner
must constantly monitor the demand for the line of products his or her business
sells.
Admittedly, there is nothing that makes
working people dream more than owning a new business. A new business owner must anticipate working
long, long hours for several years. Plan
to spend much more money on setup, general cost and marketing than originally
planned. Become obsessed with the
current line of products the business carries, thus making it better. After doing all of this, the dream of
business ownership will no longer be a dream, it will be a successful reality.
