Crossing My Fingers

Two weeks ago, an opportunity opened up. There is a new building being constructed in a prime location. I am almost certain I'll get a space since the owner and my father are good friends. They've done each other favors. I hope another one won't hurt.

In this space, I plan to put up a service-oriented establishment. I'm in the process of gathering data from product suppliers. I've talked to several people in the same line of business and have gotten the basics from them. They even shared their compensation scheme with me. I also found a training center where I can get trained individuals to man this establishment. This center offers free training to the residents of the city. I've also gotten hold of someone who does consultation for people who want to get into the business like me. I even have the menu of services conceptualized.

I'm already thinking of color schemes, furniture layout, seasonal offers and other amenities for this business. I hope the place gets set up soon. I just can't wait!!!

With a business name in mind, I just need to sit down and formally draft a business plan, complete with cash flows and SWOT.

I must've visited almost all reseller shops I've seen on the road.  I've noticed that these shops carry the top 3 popular ones:  Hermes, Chanel and Louis Vuitton.  There still are several pieces of Balenciaga, Valentino, Tory Burch, Celine, Gucci and Michael Kors but not as abundant as the top 3.  I guess what carries the most value are the three popular ones. If you are looking for cheap designer bags, I suggest checking out Don Quixote.  You will usually find on the topmost floors on Donki.  I think this is the one in Shinjuku. I am not so sure. You find them arranged like this or inside locked glass cabinets.  I'm sure the artisans who made these bags will tu...
