Instructions
Step 1
First of all, study all the legislation related to your field of activity. These are the Tax Code, the Code of Administrative Offenses, the Consumer Protection Law, etc. To successfully start a business, you need a business plan. You can write it yourself or you can purchase it from a specialized company. The first section usually indicates the form of organizational and legal activities, the source of funding, the periods of paperwork and tax registration. The financial part assumes the presence of a full calculation of income and expenses, starting from renting premises and ending with the purchase of champagne to the opening of the store.
Step 2
The next point in opening a yarn store will be the registration of an individual entrepreneur or a legal entity. It is easier and cheaper to register as an entrepreneur, but legal entities are more credible in bank lending. Be sure to open a bank account.
Step 3
Now you can select a room. Ideally, the store should be in good transport accessibility and in a "walk-through" place. For a yarn store, the area needs a compact and cozy. Only samples of goods are usually laid out on showcases and shelves, the bulk is stored in warehouses. The assortment should include not only yarn, but also many related products: knitting needles, crochet hooks, scissors, etc. If you sell floss and embroidery, the clientele will increase significantly. The main thing is that you can please the majority of buyers, i.e. the product should be of different price categories - from "budget" to more expensive. Fashion magazines and brochures must be on display. The buyer needs to be interested!
Step 4
It is not difficult to arrange the supply of goods. It is enough to choose the product you are interested in and agree on deliveries with the managers. The main thing is to remember that you need to buy from the manufacturer. They do not make large markups, and they will provide you with considerable discounts on volumes.
Step 5
Having opened your store, you need to correctly advertise it. An ideal place to advertise can be a website. There is a small fee per year for site maintenance, and almost any web designer can do it. The advertising that this site will make will allow you to cover and increase the profit of your new store by an order of magnitude. You can also advertise in newspapers, but this is less productive. A great opportunity to attract buyers is to arrange knitting master classes. Many women will be interested in such lessons, and at the same time pay attention to the product. Leaflets with the upcoming master class can simply be scattered around the mailboxes.
