Next time, if you get a next time, pay attention to the following factors:
* Where your customers are
* Traffic, accessibility, parking and lighting
* Location of competitors
* Condition and safety of building
* Local incentive programs for business start-ups in specific targeted areas
* The receptiveness to a new business at a prospective site
