If you don't know my story so far, you can read my progress thread here. Anyway, I have been feeling a bit down, but I'm trying to push through it. One major concern I have is the viability of this product I am creating. Even if I put all of this effort into it, will people actually buy? I believe it's a very practical and useful device that fills a need, but my family's opinion and my own self doubt is limiting me. My current plan is to file a provisional patent (I have anxiety about copycats) and then test this device in the market to see if I get a reaction. I'll use online ads to promote it. I also want to sell this on the device's own Shopify page, as well as Amazon and Meta/Instagram.
