We would specialise in the Gaming PC Market as there are alot of gamers out there whom need hi spec computers. We have been advised that the old job centre has now got a tenent with the terms being agreed - so a new business there. There was also the Motor spares shop on rookery street in mind and that has also got new tenents agreed and so another new shop to open. The location we make take upon is the Planetary Road Industrial Estate and have a unit there.</p> <p>Very competative market and my cousin has said he knows of some customers where he can get trade from in other areas of the county. We will see what happens and we will keep you posted of if and when a business is likely to open. </p> http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/topic/resturant-recommendation#post-20 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 16:18:48 +0000 Steph 20@http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/ <p>If you are like me and LOVE a good curry you have to try Ranga Mati in Wednesfield.</p> <p>I might be telling you all something you already know but we were there the other night, the food is delicious and the service fantastic. The owner is very sociable and came around to talk to all the patron but without being intrusive while we were eating or engaged in conversation between ourselves.</p> <p>It impressed me that much I'm here telling you all about it!</p> <p>Where else would you recommend? </p> http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/topic/proposed-business-idea-for-wednesfield#post-19 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 16:14:35 +0000 Steph 19@http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/ <p>I'm not sure as I've never worked in your field but..., there is at least one other computer repair shop that I know of in WV11 based on the Ashmore Park shopping precinct or the "bottom shops" and there used to be one on Wood End above the shops near to The Vine pub. So I'd be concerned about market saturation.</p> <p>Also based on Mcdogs comment about Internet cafe, I would seriously look at teh location in relation to the new Library when it opens...would you pay for computer/Internet access if you could go 100 yards up the road and get it for free? </p> http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/topic/proposed-business-idea-for-wednesfield#post-18 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 13:24:47 +0000 mcdogs 18@http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/ <p>I used to be in the same industry and to be honest its a lot of hard work for very little profit as there is so much competition and most people tend to use mobile pc repairs as it saves them lugging everything into a shop. Maybe if this was combined with an internet cafe it could work as I think there is a real need for one of these in Wednesfield and would give kids something to do but this would mean opening late into the evenings. </p> http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/topic/proposed-business-idea-for-wednesfield#post-17 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 08:45:19 +0000 240187andrew 17@http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/ <p>Thanks to all for replies. I have another stint to put in.</p> <p>My cousin and I are quite good in the computer industry and are thinking of the old job centre in Wednesfield and turning that into a computer build and repair shop where we will sell computer related products and offer advise to people with problems (computer related).</p> <p>Will that be a good move???? </p> http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/topic/proposed-business-idea-for-wednesfield#post-16 Thu, 10 Sep 2009 07:50:14 +0000 Steph 16@http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/ <p>Now that's a good idea... </p> http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/topic/proposed-business-idea-for-wednesfield#post-15 Wed, 09 Sep 2009 15:54:49 +0000 mcdogs 15@http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/ <p>Why not combine the lot, go kart track down stairs with everything else above it </p> http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/topic/proposed-business-idea-for-wednesfield#post-14 Wed, 09 Sep 2009 15:06:57 +0000 Steph 14@http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/ <p>I think I prefer the second idea, mainly as I think I'd have more regular use or it. I'd love to try Go Karting but it's a day out kinda activity, where as pool/darts and bar would be a more regular relaxing night out pursuit..</p> <p>..But that's just my opinion for what it's worth! </p> http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/topic/proposed-business-idea-for-wednesfield#post-13 Wed, 09 Sep 2009 11:52:10 +0000 240187andrew 13@http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/ <p>Dear All WV11 Residents,</p> <p>I am proposing to open a business in Wednesfield but would like to hear what you people think which would work best.</p> <p>Idea 1: To have a Go Karting Centre open with Mini Moto track for all enthusiasts and people who would like a good night out.</p> <p>Idea 2: To open a Pool, Snooker &amp; Darts Centre at Bentley Bridge and have a bar in there too. Also there would be a space for Computer Gamers who do online LAN Gaming.</p> <p>Both i think would be a good idea but i am stricken on which one to do.</p> <p>Can you help?? If so comment and let me hear what you people have to say. At the moment this is in the planning stage and capturing the costs. </p> http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/topic/gardner#post-12 Thu, 27 Aug 2009 19:22:29 +0000 mcdogs 12@http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/ <p>I'll second that, I am in need of one too </p> http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/topic/gardner#post-11 Thu, 27 Aug 2009 12:59:19 +0000 Steph 11@http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/ <p>Does any one have local gardeners they can recommend, My garden is in serious need of a overall?</p> <p>Anyone? </p> http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/topic/introduce-yourself#post-10 Wed, 26 Aug 2009 13:29:19 +0000 Steph 10@http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/ <p>Thanks Clare, Castlebridge isn't a million miles away from where we are, I hope you settle in there! </p> http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/topic/introduce-yourself#post-9 Wed, 26 Aug 2009 12:47:13 +0000 Clare 9@http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/ <p>Hi, I'm Clare, I'm 28 and I live in Castlebridge having just moved in with my boyfriend - I'm a Dudley girl born and bred. </p> <p>This site is a really good idea, it's nice to have a bit of community spirit. </p> http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/topic/introduce-yourself#post-8 Wed, 26 Aug 2009 09:23:15 +0000 Steph 8@http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/ <p>Hi Lee :D </p> http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/topic/introduce-yourself#post-7 Wed, 26 Aug 2009 04:01:21 +0000 mcdogs 7@http://www.wv11.co.uk/forum/ <p>Ello my name is Lee and I'm an alcohol.................oops sorry wrong group</p> <p>Hmmmm what can I say, I am 35, Wednesfield born and bred.
