As a small business owner, setting up shop in a strip mall or shopping center offers some really great advantages. For starters, you’re usually in a convenient, easy-to-find location. And you can often expect to get some extra walk-in business from people patronizing other businesses. Unfortunately, even if you have the best product or service in town, if your storefront doesn’t draw attention and issue a call to action, those potential walk-ins might not notice you at all!
