Have you ever tried to do something new and found yourself banging your head against the wall?
That’s what I’ve been dealing with for a week now. E-commerce is very intriguiging to me so that I can present my books all over the world from the comfort of my living room. There are a few sites one can use. The one AI suggested to me was Gumroad. That site seems pretty popular and it’s colorful and I managed to get my Winging it While Slinging It booklet on there. Simple. Then I wanted to add other books and it was suggested I add a banner heading as well. I got stuck.
I then heard about another platform called Fourth Wall. I was able to open it and even put a banner heading on it and start adding my books. However, each book was a different size image and I wanted them all the same. So I asked Fourth Wall’s AI “expert’ how to do adjust the image sizes. It said “Do A, then B, then C and you’ll be all set.” I did A, but there was no B. When I did find B, there was no C to be found. I asked again and again and I could tell it was getting as frustrated as I was. After about an hour of not seeing what it said was there, it said its limits had been reached and it would connect me with a human support person. This was around 4:00 Saturday. I was told the human would get back to me within 12 hours. I had planned to go to bed in about six hours AND I wasn’t going to sit and watch the monitor screen for the entire evening.
Consequently, it’s now Monday and I still haven’t heard from a human. I’m giving up and going back to Gumroad to try to figure out what I need to do. Wish me luck. My head’s getting sore from banging against the wall so much!
