Hacking the cremation urn industry – Artisurn.com

Hacker News

I have been a fan of hn for a long time. I spent a lot of time lurking and then finally made an account. I have found a lot of the startups getting launched on or through this site as inspirational. I am not a programmer but I do consider myself a hacker. I am originally from Russia but now live in the US. This is my third business and my first online business. I did all of the design and setup of artisurn.com myself using shopify. I would appreciate any feedback or tips from the community on any way to improve on what I have created. I feel that the funeral business is ripe for disruption and I've chosen to start in the cremation urns category as a proof of concept. So far things have been moderately successful. I'd really appreciate any feedback. Thanks!
