Are there too many retail stores?
In the past several years, due to the abundance of cheap credit and excess spending, we've seen a massive growth in the size and number of retail outlets. Some say that we are now "over-stored." What does this mean, and how will it affect small retailers?

Managing Growth
When we look back at the excesses of a few short years ago the risk of rapid expansion becomes apparent. We are now paying it back. It didn’t take an astute businessman to question the seemingly endless development of cookie cutter strip malls that made any drive seem like the movie “Groundhog Day”. It wasn’t de javu but rather redundant development.

How Does Your Business Stack Up to your Competition?
Recently we have been hearing more and more about business failures like Circuit City and Linens and Things. These “Big Box” retailers showed tremendous growth over the past years. The concept rolled into town in earnest over a decade ago and was instantly embraced by consumers. Their creation facilitated the birth of the “Power Center” and wreaked havoc on locally owned small businesses. Wall Street applauded the growth curve of these concepts and rewarded the stock price with each announcement of new store openings. Once they hit maturation, the same store sales “boogey man” kicked in.

Video Aids Law Enforcement in the United Kingdom
London has closed circuit television cameras all over recording many of the recent riots, which sets a good example for how digital closed-circuit television systems can aid law enforcement by catching crimes on camera.

"Consistency is the most important thing in business," Enzo Ferrari once said.
