Interesting Small Businesses
http://bizaspects.com.au
One category of small jewellery shops is an individual craftsman setting up an outlet to showcase and sell his or her work.
These shops often don’t have e-Commerce, much less social media and savvy marketing

Opportunities
http://bizaspects.com.au
1. Migration online is ongoing: more physical stores will close as their premium rents are no longer justified (http://insideretail.com.au/2013/09/26/retail-fate-set-stone/)
2. Small suppliers have little marketing savvy and insufficient scale to fill a market niche
3. Possible opportunity for aggregation to address a niche
