  1. I run a small business (too small to engage consultants)Also we have too small a customer base to extrapolate most models. but I read your blog regularly and have learned much from it. This is the best post ever. I have resisted free shipping for the same reason but seeing actual data is really wonderful.

    Keep up the Great Work!!!
