    You really don’t want to test it just a little bit with some fake checkouts/or ads on it? I don’t trust myself enough to say an idea is good enough without that. I think we’re all pretty good at convincing ourselves what is a good idea or what could be a good product. Confirmation bias maybe...

    MARKETING SIDE HUSTLE STORY 
    That’s cool and interesting, it would be nice to know just about roughly how much it takes to ship to china? Maybe just a simple plugin that gives you a rough idea for shipping cost based off your location? Cars & Bids has it. I bought an auction car online in the past.

    After hearing a no make sure to leave them a flier or a business card in case they change their mind down the road. Many people today are anti-pressure and will say no in person but will think about it after a while. Might as well maximize the potential lead.
