How do I start a successful retail business?

November 30th, 2008

Mikelo asked:


I need assistance to get my questions answered regarding starting a retail business:

1. Which retail business would be best to start and why: a) Specialty retail business or b) Mail order business?

2. Which type of business is more predictable and does not change often: Specialty retail or mail order?

3. Many people say that PASSION is important when it comes to starting a business because the owner will have to work long hour to make his or her business a success. I agree with that but can you explain to me why there are many people out there who started their successful businesses outside their PASSION?

4. How can I choose products and services to sell that fit my personality and are part of my values?

5. I took a Myers-Briggs personality test and the result of the test shows that my personality type is an ISFJ (Introverted, Sensing, Feeling, Judging). Would someone like me who possess this personality type can become successful in operating his or her retail business?

How do you feel about discussing politics to an unregistered voter?

Sharon F asked:


During a discussion about the recent debates with an acquaintance, I learned that she was not a registered voter. This is someone in her mid 30’s and also did a few years in the military. I was a bit turned off with continuing the conversation. Do you think a person who is unregistered to vote has a valid opinion and a right to discuss politics? Her excuse for not registering is that she’s just not into politics. Valid or invalid excuse?

We are remodelling our house.This will entail some rose bushes being uprooted and lost, unless we properly relocate them in another part of our garden. Any tips?
