Start by researching the business -- how to run and operate a retail clothing store, where to get suppliers, what is the type of clothes that your local market wants.  The article "10 Things You Need to Know When Starting Your Own Business" http://www.powerhomebiz.com/052006/startingbiz.htm lists the steps you need to take when deciding on starting a business.\n\nClothing store is very broad, so the first step is to define whether you want to be Macy's that sells clothes to everybody or do you want  a specialized clothing store such as JCrew or Banana Republic. Define your target market -- do you want a clothing store for teens, young professionals, tailored women, or plus sizes.\n\nI suggest you read the following articles on how to start a clothing store:\nhttp://www.entrepreneur.com/article/0,4621,287057,00.html\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com/guide/cases/anna1.htm\n\nI suggest you read the following books:\n\nSo You Want to Own the Store : Secrets to Running a Successful Retail Operation by Mort Brown, Thomas Tilling http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0809232367/ref=nosim/powerhomebizguid \nStart and Run a Profitable Retail Business (Self-Counsel Business Series) by Jim Dion, Ted Topping (Contributor) http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1551801000/ref=nosim/powerhomebizguid\nStart Your Own Clothing Store (Entrepreneur Magazine's Start Up) (Paperback) by Entrepreneur Press http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1891984314/ref=nosim/powerhomebizguid\n\nYou also need to start scouting for a location. If you are going to find a location at the mall, here are some tips to consider http://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol41/mall.htm \n\nWrite a business plan to help you plan out your business. Here are some resources that can help you write your business plan:\n\n- SBA Business Plan Basics http://www.sba.gov/starting_business/planning/basic.html\n- PowerHomeBiz.com Creating a Business Plan section http://www.powerhomebiz.com/startup/businessplan.htm\n- Entrepreneur.com Writing a Business Plan section http://www.entrepreneur.com/bizplan/0,7253,,00.html\n- Bplans.com http://www.bplans.com/sp/businessplans.cfm\n- MOOT Corp Business Plan competition winners\nhttp://www.businessplans.org/businessplans.html\n\nIf you need help in terms of guidance, you can find free advice and mentors from the following organizations:\n\nGovernment Mentoring Programs such as SBDCs, which works with community colleges and local business development councils to offer mentoring programs http://www.sba.gov/sbdc/sbdcnear.html ; or the Women's Network for Entrepreneurial Training http://www.sba.gov/womeninbusiness/wnet_roundtables.html \nVolunteer programs such as SCORE http://www.score.org  which is composed of mostly retired executives and entrepreneurs \nFormal mentoring programs such as Athena Foundation http://www.athenafoundation.org/programs/globallinks.html  , Helzberg Entrepreneurial Mentoring Program http://www.helzbergmentoring.org/HEMP/  , or The Aspen Institute MicroMentor Program http://www.micromentor.org \nProfessional organizations such as the National Women’s Business Council http://www.nwbc.gov/Mentoring/programs.html \nIndustry and trade associations \nLocal business groups, such as the chamber of commerce \nLocal chapters of business groups

You can either \n\na. start your own retail store with your brand\nb. sell them to retailers\nc. participate in trade shows\n\nThe article "Starting a Shoe Retail Store" can give you some pointers on how to go about starting this business http://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol136/shoe.htm\n\nA shoe store business is not something you can start without capital and without access to credit. Loving shoes is one thing; but owning a shoe store is another. You need to have capital in order to provide for the following cost expenditures: leasing a store (the cost of which will depend on the size, design and location), displays and racks, backoffice furniture and shelving, inventory selection, business licenses and permits, insurance, marketing, and many more.\n\nTo get ideas of the latest footwear styles and to develop contacts and find suppliers in the shoe retail industry, it is important that you attend any or all of the important trade shows in this industry (participation of which also depends on the availability of resources for your travel, accomodation and trade show fees):\n\n- World Shoe Association http://www.wsashow.com/ the largest and most comprehensive footwear and related accessories event \n- Magic Marketplace http://www.magiconline.com - mainly apparel and accessories, though includes footwear as well\n- Fashion Footwear Association of New York http://www.ffany.org - largest shoe show in the East Coast\n- Shoe Market of the Americas http://www.smota.com - held 3 times a year in Miami\n- North American Shoe and Accessories Market http://www.northamericanshoe.com  - the 10th largest shoe show in the world\n- Los Angeles Shoe Show http://www.californiamarketcenter.com... \n- Southwest Shoe Expo http://www.southwestshoeexpo.com... - held 5 times a year at Dallas World Trade Center \n- Chicago Shoe Expo http://www.chicagoshoeexpo.com - a small regional trade show held 4 times a year in Chicago\n- Micam Shoevent http://www.micamonline - international trade show for medium to high end footwear held twice a year in Milan\n- GDS http://www.mdna.com - the premier shoe event held twice a year in Dusseldolf, Germany\n\nWhile you are getting your plans together, you may also want to check out the following Trade Associations for more information on this business: \n\n- National Retail Federation http://www.nrf.com \n- America Apparel and Footwear Association http://www.americanapparel.org/... \n- Electronic Retailing Association http://www.retailing.org \n- National Shoe Retailers Association http://www.nsra.org/

All of those you list are possibilities.  The easiest way to enter a market is doing it with the least expense.  For a clothing store, you will need minimal equipment and interior finish.  Merchandise inventory depends on local tastes, customs, budgets, styles.  Advertising should be the easiest and cheapest.  Newspapers still reach the most people.\nThe most expensive start ups are fast food restaurants and ice cream stores.  The costs to buy and use equipment are high.\n\nThe most important thing is to do a comprehensive market study to find out if your product or service will be received.  You cannot sell pork in Teheran, for example.

I would suggest you start somewhere small like flea markets and garaging just to get a feel.\n\nI want to open a shoe store and I sell used and new shoes at flea markets and garage sales in the summer.\n\nAnd if that works out try selling on eBay (i know, i know, the fees) and after you get so many customers open an eBay store.\n\nOnce your eBay store is open you can open a yahoo merchant store, or a ProStore, and still keep your eBay store.\n\nAnd find clothing wholesalers, they aren't difficult to find.  By low sell high.\n\nAfter that put your online address everywhere: On blogs, 360pages, My Space pages (yours, one just for your store, family members, and friends), and print adds in newspapers.  And if it can be posted anywhere then put it there.\n\nI wish you all the best and if you get your site up I will gladly put a link on my blog and 360pages.
