Do you own a shop? Tell me what it's like!

... because I opened mine 5 weeks ago, I'm loving it but I do lie awake at night wondering if I have made the most expensive mistake of my life.
Anyone else?

Is it an online shop? I have an online one and I think it is VERY VERY VERY hard work to get people to know about it

ooops, just realised you said opened and not launched, I am feeling silly now :-(

I would love a bircks & morter shop one day but an online on is hard enough!

what kind of shop hae you opened?

I'm in the process of starting my own shop. I need lots of help. I have this idea and a concept and there is nothin like it round where I am. Iv found a suitable premises etc

It's an outdoor clothing shop, just went live with my website as well yay! I love my little shop but I will give it 12 months to show that it can be a viable business. Come on shoppy you can do it!
OnlyWantsOne one thing - estimate your initial need for start up capital, then double it. That's what everyone told me, and I sure am learning fast
