This is a great story out of Sequim. One of my colleagues helped a client start a second, unique business operation. The onwer had a women's boutique and frequently had requests for tourist souvenirs and local products. There wasn't one in town, so she took the initiative and started Forage Gifts and Northwest Treasures.

SEQUIM, Wash. – Theresa Rubens is a third-generation resident of Sequim whose grandchildren attend the same schools she and her husband once did. She knows as much about her community as anyone, but she didn’t know where a visitor could buy a Sequim souvenir. And that, she said, was a problem.
When a 1,000-square-foot retail space became available in the main downtown core, just two doors down from her women’s boutique and retreat, Solar City, she knew the time was right to create a shop for Sequim-branded souvenirs and gifts, Forage Gifts & Northwest Treasures (http://ift.tt/2cWZ7n6).
