    Amazon is less a store than it is a marketplace connecting buyers and sellers and taking a piece from everyone than it is a store. What I do is build a platform and service to do the same with Service Merchandise who could have dominated the industry. Business takes 5% of every sale. 50k only works since I’m a dev and could build in India.
