Or a manicure... salon. In short, you want something of your own, but you're not sure how to approach it? Then this book is for you. Alexandra Konyakhina, the owner of the cafés 'Stolica Coffee', explains what local business is and why a manicure salon next to a railway station is a bad idea.

Plus, the author shares how to: • determine in which field to open your business; • find a location, calculate traffic, and assess premises for your business; • choose equipment, employees, and prices for your goods/services; • overcome fear and finally open the business of your dreams.
