Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The project represents a legitimate niche podcast and consulting brand ('eCommerce Made Easy') with a history dating back to 2002. However, the submission quality is critically low, containing hyperbolic claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product') and vague data ('everyone', 'Internet'). While the $500k figure implies some business success, the lack of verifiable technical innovation and the unserious nature of the form response severely cap the Proof of Usefulness score.
