however, ASK. they are in hiatus right now & im sure they'll have to rebuild their distro network once they relaunch.
you could also become a place to sell tickets to local shows & promote them-- offer free promotional space for bands
organize mini in-store shows.
i would not go with a tiny space, because tiny space is xpensive and you need VOLUME to survive. you need to turn those products as fast as you can. medium size is ok, doesnt need to be huge, but it shouldnt be like a newspaper kiosk. |
Events are a definite plus. Anything to bring customers in, even if they don't make a great deal of money on the day.
And magazines are good because, again they result in regular footfall: people will come in for their weekly/monthly fix, and getting customers in is half the battle.
