The most demanding model: finding a problem someone pays for takes longer than building the tool.
Budget: CA$20–80 a month in tools while you build.
You must tie up capital in stock, and a badly assessed item stays unsold.
Budget: CA$100–500 of working capital depending on the niche.
Each aspect is worth points: what you like doing 22, time 14, contact 14, budget 12, timing 10, location 10, risk 10, stock 8. “Good fit” earns all of the aspect’s points, “Partial” half, “Watch out” 0.
The score measures how well your answers match what the business demands: it is not a chance of success nor an income forecast.
