Hi Guys!

I've got a business idea in mind and wanted to get some opinions and advice.

First off a little info about me: I've read TMF , I'm 21 years old, I live in Denmark, I currently have no income.

My idea is this (don't know if you've already got this one in the U.S., but I think there's an opportunity for it to succeed in Denmark (population: 5 million):
  • Setting up a website that contains a database over the hair salons near you, with the ability to compare prices, reviews etc., and of course, as the main selling point, setting up an appointment online.
  • The hair salons would then have to pay a small amount for every appointment made from my website. This way they will only pay if the website generates any appointments for them to make money.
  • The hair salons should be able to sign up themselves, edit prices and info and announce campaigns and offers.
Obstacles:
  • I have no experience of setting up and designing websites.
  • There is already a competitor, except on that site the hair salons pay a monthly fee instead of paying per appointment. I'm certain I can come up with a more simple design and more userfriendly features.
  • Alot of hair salons have got a system for setting up appointmens on their own websites. But taken into account there is no risk in joining this website I can't imagin why they wouldn't.
What do you guys think? Is it worth a shot? Should I outsource the website making (what would it cost?) or learn to code/design it myself?

I hope you can help push me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance
