    Garage/Ground level storage in Edinburgh?

    Thanks for your advice, I hadn't checked those sites, actually. Will definitely have a look. Now that looks interesting, thanks!

    Garage/Ground level storage in Edinburgh?

    Hi all, I'm considering to start a mobile vending business (tricycle) in Edinburgh and am on the hunt for somewhere to store my trike in the evenings and when not in use. So far I've been looking out for garages up for rent, but most of them seem to lack access to electricity.. So, does anyone...

    Wholesale single origin chocolate, where?

    I'm aware that there has been a boom which has now pretty much receded. That doesn't mean that there's not a market. I also know what many of the niche producers made, and most of them offered exactly the same truffles with little uniqueness to distinguish one from the other. What the Mrs is...

    Wholesale single origin chocolate, where?

    Thanks for your input bud, but I think that's completely the wrong attitude to have. It comes down to what you make, how you market yourself, where you do it, etc. ;)

    Wholesale single origin chocolate, where?

    " 501- 1000 BARS OF CHOCOLATE = £3 ABOVE 1000 BARS OF CHOCOLATE = £3.5 because it is too much work" Haha! I'll keep them in mind. ;)

    Wholesale single origin chocolate, where?

    Hey all, As most women, my Mrs. has an obsession with chocolate. She's been experimenting a whole lot lately with various homemade truffles, sauces, you name it. Most of them need single origin chocolate (once you get to a certain level of snobbery, it's hard to go back) and as anyone who has...

    Selling food based on other peoples recipes?

    Is there any form of law against selling food based on (or following to the dot) someone else's recipe? E.g. say I own a bakery, and would like to sell an unusual cake which I came across in one of my recipe books - would that be O.K? Cheers! Edit: Perhaps I should be more clear.. This is a...

    Royal Mail, really don't make it easy on themselves!

    Haha nah not at all, she doesn't even know I didn't get fully reimbursed for the second pair or she would have insisted on paying the difference. ;)

    Royal Mail, really don't make it easy on themselves!

    Pff, that's nothing pal. Listen to this! (this turned out to be one of the longest posts ever, so brace yourselves) My sister lives in Norway and since everything is obscenely expensive there she asked me to buy a pair of Bose on-ear headphones for her here and send them over. That way she'd...

    FAO shop owners/managers: what do you consider when designing your 'retail experience

    Cheers for answering. :) Ah yes, shops which focus primarily on a product which in its own carries a pleasant scent do, quite naturally, don't need to put much consideration into introducing such. That said, and I know I'm at risk of sound like a tool here, do you give much consideration to the...

    FAO shop owners/managers: what do you consider when designing your 'retail experience

    When answering this - assuming anyone does, fingers crossed! - it would be great if you could just briefly mention what your position is (or was, if you're referring to a previously held job) and possibly what area of retail you are/were in. :) I've been reading a fair bit of consumer...

    Music Website

    Uhm, you certainly don't have to have a physical presence along with your website in order to sell instruments, no. Just working off the web is perfectly doable.. Not necessarily easy, though. As for where to purchase the instruments, I'm afraid that's outside my domain (sad pun regrettably...

    Links vs Articles

    On that subject I'd like to add that the traffic that can be brought in directly from such directories should not be dismissed too lightly. As always it will depend on your niche and what you're expecting from the traffic, but for some it's great. I added just one article - to start with, that...

    Links vs Articles

    You've been given some great answers already. The best way to go is to use a combination of posting to your own site, guest posting on other peoples sites/blogs and submitting articles to ezinearticles, articlebase and the like. In short: >Keep the best articles for your own site, make sure...
