Lots of Progress and No Progress

I still only have one sale so far from Project K. It's mostly because I have been busy laying the groundwork for a strong selling blitz for the end of this month/beginning of March. I have joined quite a few forums relating to the automotive category I'm going after. I have been participating in these forums for most of February.

The big news so far is that I have almost finished a fully functional website. Basically, I found a very cool company that offers easy-to-use e-shop templates and will host your site for a small percentage of your profit. Their cut actually turns out to be cheaper than Ebay. I set up a site, merchant account, shopping cart, basically everything, in 2 days. I'm currently tweaking the copy and ironing out some final details. I plan on launching the site on Saturday. In the meantime I will continue posting in the forums and announce my website this weekend.

Poker is not going so good this month. I have tried to put in some time, but I"m really not focusing enough to have good results. I'm trying to play while doing tons of other things. The results speak for themselves, as I'm down about $300 this month. One of the things i also plan on doing next month, is getting a poker coach. There is a respected poster in the twoplustwo forums that offers coaching for a reasonable price. I can probably learn a lot by just perusing the forums, but being that I'm very time constrained, I'm hoping a coach can speed up my learning process and take my game up a level.
