Pricer partners may not want to take our service due to fear of the unknown.

Citation: Limited target market (pricer ESL partners) Unfortunately the drawback we see with the ESL system is that it will only be limited to retail stores and not every selling business. In the real world, not all of our targeted customers will get our service which will make it difficult for us to grow. The ESL service market is confined to giving service to only pricer ESL system and not all the ESL system manufacturer. Limited resources As we are started with our own we invest small capital to avoid unnecessary debt in the beginning. And if required we take loan in the future from the bank or venture capitalist. Initial loan gives you unnecessary burden. Low market visibility As we are new in the market the service we are giving is not known by the pricer ESL partners to make our presence felt in the market.
Also, the fact that as a new and small company, bigger retail stores may not have the confidence in our service or our business. We will have to strive to earn their trust .
