This series is what I need to see. Thank you for taking the time to make this.
My father was a collector until he passed in 2019. He DJā€™d all through the disco era and I dreamt of carrying the torch as early as middle school. My lifestyle lead me down a different road halfway through high school. I have his entire legacy now. About 20,000 12ā€ cataloged. I havenā€™t got a count on all the 45s and other formats. Reel to reels even.
Iā€™m in BROOKLYN, NY and want to open a store. I wonā€™t sell in bulk. So Iā€™m paying attention. Again, thank you for making these.

Why did my brain randomly come up with idea to own a record store just now? Your video was the first video I chose in my search. Iā€™m so glad I found your channel.

1st hand experience is all you have to bring to the table? Well, that's the most important thing there is. Book knowledge is nothing compared to actual experience like you have. For me, branding is all about image. Just like an actor, their whole persona is centered around branding themselves and creating a unique image. Most important thing about branding is that it has to fit your personality. I'm a business owner as well and I love talking business like this. Looking forward to your series.

Canā€™t tell you how much I appreciate you taking the time to talk through this. And as a bonus, itā€™s just straight forward information, none of the ā€œhey, buy this book for all the detailsā€ crap.

As someone that has been in phase 1 for a while now, and headed quickly towards your next stage, this is a very timely video! Thanks for your love of records and the record community.

Great video and very helpful! Iā€™m older and had a successful dance/electronica/house music vinyl store in San Francisco from 96 to 2003. At the time it reached to be the top dj record store in the USA. After o closed, I held on to my inventory and large collection for about 5 years and around 2003 to 08 seemed no one was interested in vinyl and everyone, especially djs all went digital. So it seem what I had (inventory) had no value, but had tremendous value for me bc Iā€™ve been collecting since 85 and consider myself one of the first to dig at records stores and flea markets (crate diggers).

So for about 20 years, I didnā€™t think about getting back into the record business or keep up with new music and before was considered the music guru for various reasons. So I didnā€™t realize record stores and vinyl was back and usually big major cities like SF always seem to have plenty but there was a dry spell for about 2 decades and noticed itā€™s coming back and strong.

This was very helpful, in a stringed instrument store, I love records I collect. I had a friend who had a record store, and he lost it when his land lord passed. Now we have a little pop up room for his records and it fits great with my guitars šŸŽøā¤ļø appreciate you taking the time to make this video!

So excited for this series! I have always wanted to open my own shop here locally. Back at the end of 2019 we had a local shop open but is now closing for good at the end of this year. While that's super disappointing and a bit discouraging, I feel like along the way, while I supported the shop over the past 3 years, there were many things I picked up that I would not do the same. Almost like someone else tested the market for me lol

Anyways, looking forward to the next video on location as to your thoughts!

PS - i live about 45 min from the closest other record shop.

My idea is going to be a selling new/old colour vinyl only. So seeing this video is very cool

Really cool of you to share your knowledge and experiences. I think with NTX you've carved out a niche in the local scene by having a reliably well curated selection of used inventory and aleays keeping it fresh. My days of endlessly digging through rows of dusty bins are getting fewer and fewer:) Thanks man - Andy

when you mentioned pop up locations to test your concept in your local area, at that time, where did you get your inventory? Was it your personal collection. Great video by the way.

For me, I think the first step would have to be putting together a collection. Iā€™ve only recently been bitten by the vinyl bug and have about fifty records. Love the series! Keep ā€˜em comingā€¦ cheers

Thanks for the info. Is there a fast way to load things like images of album covers when loading your website? My website has place to upload csvs but the album cover images are another story!

Question for you. I have a pretty decent collection of around 4k used records. Obviously, I will need to replenish my inventory as I make sales. What is the best way to do that? How do I buy in bulk and where? Do I go to estate sales or is there a better route for replenishing my inventory?
