I have experience in this area, I must say: importing depends on a few factors. Gather the data first, don't make emotional decisions.

Another perspective: maybe the core issue with importing is something else entirely. Think about it...

But what's the real risk? Will the business close if this choice is wrong? I'm saying this because you need to be very careful.

Exactly and not many people know this. Don't hesitate to ask; those who don't ask always pay more.

Correct. When making a decision, also write down the cost of reversal.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Let me summarize what's been said so far. Look where the bucket leaks; pouring water on top doesn't solve it.

Just leaving this note, it might be useful.

I have an objection here. Taking notes for two weeks yields better results than a six-month estimate.

When making a decision, also write down the cost of reversal. Of course it varies if your situation is different.

Three different views emerged, they all complement each other. Calculate how many months you can survive without revenue, then halve that number.

If you post the result here it will help others too.

I've been down this road, let me tell you. Start with a small trial; don't commit to everything at once.

My perspective changed after experiencing that. Just because everyone does it doesn't mean it's right.

If I were you, I'd go this route.

I disagree with you on this point. Start with a small trial; don't commit to everything at once.

This is my opinion I'm not claiming it's absolute truth.
