See - your vision is SO mainstream - old school kind of thinking. Many shops have failed because the owner was afraid to venture outside the box! Break through to that next level - change the paradigm.

You truly want the create a cigar shop that is a "destination" - a place people want to go and hang out. You want to have a wide variety of services and products available that customers will spend money on.

Consider:

  • Multi-screen movie theater
  • Indoor skate park
  • Indoor water park
  • High end hotel
  • Bowling alley (I know, but they're making a come back...)
  • Live bands
  • 500+ beer and/or wine selection
