Whats up blades! I've had a few stores online and on ebay all thru highschool so i know some aspects of operating a business. My main goal is to open a storefront headshop. Any tips or advice, also if there is any owners or people that know owners that can give me some input, that would be greatly appreciated.
Yeah. Don't have weed in the shop. The police will defently check up. Get some quality bongs, pipes, papers, roaches and so on. Now, the most important part of any business is something that makes you different from others. I wouldn't advice you to sell Vaporizers. Leave that to the internet business. If i were you, i would specialize in making my own quality bongs. You know, like a meditating buddha, a NASA rocket, those christmas bowl-thing you shake with snow inside, santa claus, a figure of Jimmi Hendrix, pretty much whatever creativity lets you do. In that way, you would have something NOBODY haves, leading customers to your store by pure reputaition. If they don't like it, they can buy some of the other standard bongs you have. And gadgets! Portable keychains pipes, t-shirts, grinders, keychain storageroom, ashtrays.. I even saw a belt once that could be transformed to a bong! Crazy stuff
And do not forget to check the laws in the area, in a number of states paraphernalia is illegal to sell and own. That is why you will see signs about for tobacco use only, or for amusement or for collection only. I wouldn't even sell 'legal high' materials either.
Copy that. ^ Try open one i flordida with all the old foks.. I think their grandchildren will appreciate their new vases
Thanks for all the input! All your info will be very useful: ). A store name is also important, any ideas? My location is north east p.a!
Hey dude. As it happens, I do live where you live. (seriously though. NEPA, right?) You can hook me up all the time!
ehh about 45 min from scranton, i always go to primal. Yea i want to get things going by the end of the year and im thinking ZEN for the name
something involving zen would be a good name, you could use a blue lotus as a symbol [playing on the classic view of lotus eaters and blissing out] if you want to go that way.
Make sure you search out the name of your store in depth. You don't want to use a name that is a National Copyright or World Copyright protected, cause if a huge company gets word that there name is being used in a light they don't like. Here comes the lawyers and it will get expensive quick.
I'm aware of that type of stuff, I plan on meeting with a lawyer so I don't go into this blind. Again,thanks for all the input guys, I'm putting it all to use.
