Reptile shop start up

[spider_mad]

Nicely laid out shop spacing so that customers can walk in and out easy (particularly if its a busy day).

Well maintained and kept vivariums.

knowledgeable staff giving good sound advice and recommendations. Not just someone trying to get a sale.

Good stock of reptiles and arachnids having a range from starter novice species to the more advanced keeper and rarer species that have more specified requirements.

Know your market and dealers (helps if someone is looking for a species and you can order it in from a dealer rather than the person having to go from store to store.

Ability to be able to get what your customers want and not just tell them that they want what you have.
