I was thinking getting into entreepreneurism. Maybe starting a retail store to compete against Walmart. Gonna call it Flormart.

What do you guys think of this kit? Is it worth it?

Thank you and God bless.

Competing against Walmart is not easy. You need need a lot of investment, planning and a team. Although your own specific store can do great.

I'll give you an idea I had since you mentioned the big box retailers.... I think if someone can start an e-commerce operation and only give people the item THEY ACTUALLY NEED in 1-2 days and the rest waits on a standard shipping time window then I think shoppers may be willing to migrate to that platform.... This means the young people could be happier to not only work at a place like that but also be glad to shop there too. Generous time off and no hard work unless your on the product line that does the 1-2 day shipping list and even then you rotate off that shift and only do a small amount of it.

I posted this comment because I have had this idea for a while and I want people to tell me what they think.... I think I myself would be willing to shop at a place like that first instead of at an entity with an egregiously based business model...
