I almost ready to open a small general store and I have been going back and forth with myself on rather its of more importance to make the store exclusively for Bitcoin, include the local currency as well as BTC, or if it makes a difference one way or other? Thoughts? Experiences? Suggestions?
If you want to open your business don't bet on bitcoin alone. You will limit yourself by doing that.
Bitcoin is not that popular and well known among people as we may think. Open your shop and include Bitcoin as one of the payment methods.
You can try to offer some promotions for people who want to purchase with bitcoin, that's all.
