How to Find a Prime Retail Location Without Paying a Premium Price

Premium Rent for “Premium” Locations

Every retailer wants to open up their first store in that prime “main-and-main” location, that is, until they realize how much rent in that space would cost. Due to the high-demand for those heavily trafficked “premium” areas, retailers and restaurateurs need to pay premium prices at those locations. However, they cannot guarantee success as there is no one-size-fits-all location for retail.

You need to understand where your customers are located. Those that simply walk by your storefront does not mean that they are interested in what you’re selling. Even if they do walk in, there is no intent to purchase. But what if you can see where there is purchase intent for your product or service?

Finding the Diamond in the Rough

Most would say that your business will thrive in locations with a lot of foot traffic. Others will say you need to find the areas that fit your targeted demographic. While these factors are important for success, we have something better.

While insights like foot traffic and demographics are important for success, we have something better.
