Thank you for the input. I had planned on catering to churches in the area. I am also looking for a market niche that would compliment the bookstore. I have been doing research and - yes - the competition is brutal. I once read that you should take the best of what the competition has to offer and make it better. That is to refine what they have already done. Well, I am still formulating my business plan and there is still time to revise.

I want to thank everyone for helping out and giving great, honest feedback.

Sincerely,
KimB
