Default 9 Days till my new business opens !!!!!

Its just dawned on me that its only 9 days till i open my new shop Carnoisseur Milton Keynes. Its been nearly two years since we first started looking into doing this and i,d be a liar if i didn,t say i,m starting to get a little bit nervous now.Heres a pic of my Saph and the Shop Van .The Saphs for sale now as i dont have the time to give it the attention it deserves

Have you took on the Franchise to Carnosseur?
What kind of outlay do you have and do you have to buy your stock through them or can you go where you want.

good to see people are biting the bullet and getting themselvs set up.

dont worry to much. nerves do show that your itching to go out n make it work.

one more thing, every business is a good idea, as long as you make it one. if you look at a successful business list their will be every type of business which means they can all blow up and make wads..

good luck.
