i am looking to open a women`s clothing boutique in los angeles and am hoping to connect with someone who has some good strong advise/experience to share. thanks!!!
I apologize if this seems too obvious but have you worked in one? Perhaps you could intern? Do you read any of the trade rags or hang out in trade forums? Most people actively engaged in this business aren`t hanging out in a generic business forum. You have to go where they are.
