Imagine you own a busy brick & mortar store in your city and the business is booming. One day when you go to work, you realize that your store is welded shut, even the windows are boarded and you are unable to do business. Your customers are coming at the door; some asking what had happened, or will you ever open again- while some coast by noticing your abandoned store.
