Retail kiosks, also known as mall kiosks actually started at around the 13th century in India. Now these little showcases are viewed all around the country for all sorts of different reasons. I've been to a few seafood shacks in various countries by the water such as Greece and they have these kiosks everywhere! We Americans have these kiosks in malls, usually surrounded by merchandise such as cell phones, jewelry, skin care and food! These retail display cases are really a superb idea because the mall kiosks are literally right splat in the middle of the mall floor - more foot traffic.But, they also are about appearances as well and giving people a true view of what you are selling and what you have available. These kiosks are all about catching people's attention so they gravitate towards your showcase. So one of the VERY first things you are going to need for your business is to figure out what kind of a product you want to sell, again this can be pretty much anything your imagination can think of. Just make sure that it's not the same exact item that is available in a mall, and if it is, make sure YOUR prices are a few dollars shorter!Once you figure out the product you want to...more

Many times, when were out shopping, we stumble upon something that we love and feel like we cant live without it (even though we may already have plenty of shoes, bags, watches or whatever the object beckoning you may be).The psychological trick of something that costs a lot seems to work; the more it costs, the more we rationalize buying it to ourselves, especially if no one is there to talk us out of it! Of course, this trick works just as well with less expensive items but, when it comes to those, there usually isnt much of an internal debate about should I? shouldnt I?Lets take luxury watches. These can be high ticket items no doubt; ranging from a few thousand dollars to tens and even hundreds of thousands of dollars. There are many, many luxury watch brands out there that produce thousands of appealing and compelling watches from which to choose. For many people, a watch is like an accessory (perhaps especially for men who dont otherwise find a way to spice up their daily look; women use jewelry, handbags, belts, shoes and more to do so.)Perhaps one thing people dont think about when they buy a luxury watch is what it will be worth down the line. Many times due to fashion...more
