one thing u should do is offer anything that all the other corner cell phone shops don't. i was looking for a sedio case and went into about 7 different shops. none of them had it and they all had the same stuff. same generic this, same generic that. try to figure out what people want that no one else has. like mods, for example, no one will do that in a store( i'm not sure about contracts with cell companies and offering unlocks and such). but try to be the store that the other stores send people to. "no we don't carry that, try exciting cell down the street. they do everything there." i think that will be a winner for ya!
