I have an idea that everyone thinks is great? I even got a vote from the local town coucil saying it was a great idea. But how do I get customers? I am not good at sales or marketing? Where should I start?

I would love to know what your idea is. Along with contacting SCORE for help with a marktetin plan, don't forget to write up a business plan. Within the business plan you need to provide your marketing plan. First figure out how to market it (what tactics would you use) then work on learning how to execute. Resources are endless.

Depending on the business idea, you could do much of your marketing online with a website or blog.
