I am thinking of opening a B&M in my neighborhood. My idea is to have a smoke shop and smoking lounge with a private room avaliable to my customers. So I have some questions for current B&M owners on how they started.
I am curious about the initial costs (i.e. the humidor and initial stock or other things I might not know I need)? I am also curious as to how many cigars need to be sold to keep the business going? And the big question I have is how can I see what the demand for cigars would be at the location? If there is no be demand then there is no point in doing this.
We can handle this via PMs so as not to pollute the forum with info others wont care about.
Thanks!
Erik
