Suzanne, I love that quote!

Stephanie, our business has been on the same spot on the main street right in the middle of our town since 2004. We've gotten lots of local press, and media, and most of our neighbours know who we are via town events, etc. where we set up sales kiosks. We live in a town of less than 2500 people and just last week someone told me they didn't know we were here. People will still be surprised, I believe even a couple of years from now.

You've gotten some great advice from the others. I can't offer you anything but good wishes, we finished our first year with a small loss caused by depreciation.

Good luck.
