If you're looking to create a niche store, forget about carrying the staples that all the big stores already stock. If people want Seargent Pepper, everyone knows they can pick that up at Best Buy any day of the week. Use your space for the titles that you're hoping people are coming to you're store specifically to find.
You know, that is a hard one. I have thought long and hard about it, and I agree. One issue is that this town doesn't have a record store at all. There was one, but the guy got tired and just quit a few weeks ago. That's why we are suddenly talking about going into the business. You either have to order offline or drive an hour into Memphis to find a big store. We will be able to place orders for people for sure, so that will help. I am just hoping that in 1500 CD's I can get as many "old favorites" like Sgt. Pepper as I can. I would go into this other small record store looking for stuff like that and be pissed that I couldn't find it and had to wait to go to Memphis.
I'm just going to make this list and see what happens I guess.
