Hi there. I'm hoping some of you will take the time to give me your input...

my dilemma... my partners and I have spent the last 6 months building what we think is a great product for small, online merchants. Basically you can create automated promotions in minutes to send to existing customers (emails, real-time offers, etc.) The idea is that you can upsell existing customers and convert new one more effectively.

Also, we have a reporting feature, sort of like Google Analytics, but it customized to show different views of your sales trends.

We've tried to make the whole thing really simple to use and really useful. The problem is, now we're talking to sophisticated investors who say small etailers would never use something like this. So, we're trying to decide whether we've got a good idea or a bad one that we should just trash it.

If you can spare 2 minutes to give me your thoughts, we'd be eternally grateful :>. We're in a really frustrating position, trying to decide what to do next.

I've created a quick survey here...http://trendient.wufoo.com/forms/qui...nutes-thank-u/
Any input you can provide (good or bad-- we can take it), would be awesome! Thanks in advance!
