How to open a business in a small city

Starting a business in a small town is not as easy as it seems at first glance. After all, a small city imposes some restrictions - this is the lack of a large number of highly qualified personnel, insufficient number of consumers and too close communication of people with each other because of which information about low-quality products or services quickly spreads.
