Interviewing a tattoo artist/shop owner.

I'm doing a school project about opening up a business, and we're opening up a tattoo shop. For the project I need to interview someone who is in the business. If any of you could help, it would be appreciated. Approximately how many customers does a shop get a week? About how much does the artist make from the tattoo? How long does it take to get a tattoo shop up and running? What is a good sized building to have a shop in? What is the annual income of a tattoo shop/artist? What were some of the opportunity costs to opening up the shop? Does the demand for tattoos change during different times of the year? How many different kinds of people do you get coming in to the shop? Thank you.

I JUST WANT TO ASK YOU FEW QUESTION ARE YOU AN ARTISTS? OR ARE YOU JUST LOOKING TO PUT SOME PEOPLE TO WORK FOR YOU FROM NEW ORLEANS THAT NEED THE HELP TO GET STARTED AGAIN? IF YOU ARE NOT A TATTOO ARTIST AND NEED HELP ON GETTING STARTED PLEASE FIRST SEEK A JOB AS AN APRENTICE OR OPEN THE SHOP AND HIRE A GOOD ARTIST TO TEACH YOU THE ROPES BUT I REALLY DON'T RECOMEND YOU TO OPEN A TATTOO SHOP IF YOU ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH THE INDUSTRY IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU REALLY LOVE IT AND RESPECT IT BUT PLEASE WATCH YOUR SELF YOU MAY LOSE A LOT OF MONEY WHEN INVESTING IN A UN FAMILIAR TERF THAT IS MY OPINION AND IF YOU STILL WANT TO OPEN A SHOP WRITE TO ME AND I SWEAR I WILL HELP YOU SO YOU OPEN A SHOP THAT MEETS ALL STATES REGULATIONS, AND ATRACTS CLIENTS AND GOOD LUCK WITH IT I HOPE YOU REALLY WANT TO RE CONSIDER THIS BUT IF YOU WANT TO GO AHEAD DROP ME A LINE, I WILL HOOK YOU UP WITH SOME PEOPLE AND PRICES ON EQUIPMENTS ETC.
