I know nothing of the statistics involved nor am I an expert on retail stores but it is my educated guesstimate that they rake in a large proportion of the market share when compared to what I call "pathway" stores (anything not on a corner). Its very simple: the longer store frontage that you have, the more likely someone is to come into your store to buy something. The sales opportunities increase when your store is located at an intersection since you have people coming from multiple directions. The increased store frontage means more opportunity for merchandise display, signage, and in-store viewing. This is also a preferred characteristic of my flagship store project.
To sum it up, smaller stores have to be creative and fit a market niche, especially when competing with others that have any combination of a preferred location, multi-level, and big time architectural facade.
I've got a headache. Blogger hates me.
