Okay, I'll bite. Although i think I am missing something in your post.
If you are serious, then you start by researching the business. What
does it take to own and operate a pizza place. I think a person needs
to know what they are getting into - maybe work in a place part time.
Pizza is a hard business, you have to have the right recipe. I think
you research the area and the competition - taste what they have to
offer.
That's just the beginning.
After you have done the research, you need to decide what type of pizza
place is best for you - dine-in, carryout, delivery or you going to
sell by the slice.
If you are a dine-in, are you going to serve alcohol?
What about menu items?
Are you going to use a brick oven or a more traditional oven or one of
the conveyor belt models? Each has its advantages. What price point are
you going to enter in at?
What are your hours of operation going to be?
What type of soda are you going to sell?
Are you going to buy a franchise or go independent?
You still need to secure a location, equipment and employees. And of course there is funding.
I believe the more you know, the better prepared you are. But having
run a pizza place, I have to say there is nothing like experience.
There is nothing that can prepare you for employees not showing up,
dough running out, bad weather, robbery or the list of other things
that you will encounter. Pizza looks easy but there is an art to making
and selling a great pizza, and staying in business. I loved it when I
did it but after I was out I wonder how I made it so long. I have much
respect for anyone who can make it work.
As you do your research, you work on your recipes! The crust, sauces and ingredients have to be right.
