Although this business idea is far from ideal, I decided to pursue it. Why? Few reasons:
1) Pressure is minimal. I know, it sounds childish, but I don't want to bite too much at once. I am recovering from my first business failure and depression that followed, so this small business idea is going to help me re-gain some confidence required to pursue bigger things in the future.
2) I've worked in a recruitment industry for a good while. I was responsible for writing resumes and cover letters in addition to placing people into reputable companies. Therefore, I have a great understanding of how to make a winning resume and cover letter.
3) I've created a semi-automated system that helps me to produce high quality resumes and cover letters within an hour. It typically takes 3h or so without this semi-automated system. It took me roughly 4 months of development and testing.
This business is not going to be something big. I am not going to be next Bill Gates of resume and cover letter writing or anything like that. The point is to have a small, running business in place that helps me stand-up on my feet psychologically. That's the main point - to re-gain confidence and stand-up on my feet psychologically - so I can chase bigger dreams in the future.
I will track my progress on a weekly basis and will gladly answer any questions you may have.
