Fuck a physical location. Overhead will eat your ass raw. Figure out what buying keywords your potential market is entering into search engines and rank #1 for those terms. Split test your landing pages constantly, one factor at a time. Build a mailing list. Spam them relentlessly. Offer something of value 1/3 times you spam them if you don't want them to unsubscribe. $5-$10 off or whatever is a good value proposition, since they still have to spend money with you to get it. Once you have a positive cash flow for an advertising budget, look into media buys on related niche sites. Split test everything.
I keep meaning to make a t shirt that says "I'll split test your landing strip" but only industry whores would get it so it'd be a big waste of time.
