    Help Need DF's help with my startup

    I've had a business idea and built a prototype for it. I need to get input from one of my potential customers, which will be convenience shop (newsagents etc.) owners. Do any of you own any or know anyone who could help please?

    I'd like to get their opinions on the problem I'm dealing with, and then show them my prototype. Ideally I'd meet face to face (if in London) or skype, but could email instead if necessary. If any of you could help, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks.

    Fairly friendly with the corner shop owner by me (north london) who has just done a refit of the shop so may be open to new ideas. I'd be happy to sign an nda to take a look?

    Piggzy, he's just read my post in here, which only asks for a convenience store owner contact You obviously know more than that because you've seen my prototype but just for now I'd like to get in contact with convenience store owners

    Default Need DF's help with my startup

    Hi all, been away for a fortnight. VIP expired about a week before that. Just renewed so inbox will be free again when rap does the back end stuff.

    Anyhow, I sold my Newsagents but still have an interest in it, so may be able to help out.

    Will get in touch with kushty about it.
