Fitness related website.. advise needed to finish.. Thanks!!

[Christian]

Hello all,

I've been toying with the idea for a blog/eCommerce store for fitness related products and could use a little feedback from the forum...

Background:
I currently work in the fitness industry selling equipment and have clients that request nick-nak type items that I don't have available with my company... and I am tired of telling my customers 'no' or sending them to Amazon.. so I thought of putting a relatively 'simple' website together to solve this little need and capturing the biz. In true sidewalker fashion I purchased the domain and sat on it.. and sat.. Then I progressed to slow lane style (possibly still sidewalker at this point) by getting the thing hosted via wordpress/godaddy and began playing around with some themes and what not. I'm not techy at all, so I taught myself a bit of HTML and CSS for relatively cheap ($30). Insightful but I am still not exactly ready to develop the site completely on my own.

I see great ideas for it (go figure)...

Where I need help:
I'm at the point of wondering if it is worth paying to having it developed. My time is limited working full time and raising two young kids. This is more of a side project, which would be awesome to turn into something bigger eventually but paying the bills takes priorities. Would like some feedback about those who have either gone with developers and tips for working with them, pricing, bartering, etc. (I'm fine with wordpress for the platform). The idea for the primary revenue stream is simple: affiliate commissions via amazon and would like to evolve to drop shipping the items where it makes sense.

Feedback welcome and thanks in advance..
