Startup mindset - Ex... • 20h

Hey folks, My friend and I are planning to launch a D2C digital platform for commodity broking. Think of it like Indiamart but focused on verified commodity sellers and bulk buyers, easy to use like Flipkart / Amazon , where we act as a middleman, ensure smooth transactions, and charge a small commission. The idea is to simplify the process of placing orders, negotiations, and payments - all digitally and build trust for both sides. As first-time entrepreneurs in this space, we're trying to validate the idea. We'd love to hear your thoughts on: 1. What are the biggest pain points in B2B commodity buying/selling today? 2. Do sellers and buyers trust existing platforms like Indiamart? What's missing? 3. Would a smoother, app-based experience help in this space? 4. How is the current state of the commodity broking industry in India / Global? Is it worth entering now? 5. Any red flags, tips, or things we should watch out for as we build?
