Your first consideration should be sustaining operations over a long
period of time in order to allow for business participation to
increase to a sustainable level. This when an average location is
chosen could be as long as two years. And then the profit turned may
only sustain the current overhead, not recoup previous investment.
So quite evident, a better than average location must be located.
And as has been said in the past, the three best considerations are
location, location, and location.
