As of tomorrow I'm going to start delving into all of the information that I can get my hands on about opening a small business.
I work my ass off, and now I want to work on owning my own business. There's a very small quaint area of naperville where I think it would work really well. I'm going to work on opening a Tea shop, where one would be able to buy bulk tea and also purchase tea by the glass (similar to starbucks without all of the corporate shit and tea instead of coffee) I want to furnish the inside with a very clean atmosphere and have old movies being run throughout the day. But with the current rush for healthy alternatives, I think this just might work. I've been ordering a shit load of teas to try...
Green Chai ~ not the best tea in the world, infact I'll probably have to pass on carrying this in the store because it's so...well weird, it's like drinking spinach...blech...
But I'm figuring that it won't be a reality until about this time next year...I'll have to get a business strategy written up and possibly a finiancial backer...or some serious small business loans.
I don't think I'll quit my job to do it, I'll oversee it and have someone else run it (probably my girlfriend) and hire some kids that I can get to work for fairly cheap to begin with. But there is still so much to find out...what type of cups, furniature..etc.etc...
