I am planning to start my own small retail store in or near Glendale CA. I am thinking about opening a type of dressup/makeover store for kids where they can come and play dressup, have makeovers and even purchase costumes. The type of place that will also have birthday parties etc…Mostly geared towards girls 10 and under. My dad is planning on helping me to start this business and he thinks that that it will cost about $50-60k to get started. I want to start a business plan….I know what I want to do…I just don’t know yet how to do it or how much it will cost to start and would like opinions from others who know a bit about small retail stores and starting them. Thanx in advance!!
