Should you build an ecommerce platform for small businesses in India?


Asking small businesses in India to get their own ecommerce store is like selling them retail space in the remotest part of town.

The first problem to solve for small businesses is to help them get more customers.

I learned this the hard way with AceSeller.

How can I help small businesses get more customer? is a better question to ask than Should I build an ecommerce platform for small businesses?

The former is a problem statement looking for a solution and going down that path will lead you to many interesting solutions. The latter is a solution looking for a problem, where you already think you know the solution and you're just looking for validation.

The Right Solution Test

You know your on the right track when customers (with very little effort) totally get how your product solves their problems and take ownership of the process of moving to your solutions, regardless of the obstacles they need to overcome along the way.
