My first impression of the idea is that what you're pitching is a lot like Kickstarter or Indiegogo (I'm assuming you're talking about physical sales because you mentioned Shopify). Kickstarter even holds money in escrow as a stronger signal of demand.

Interesting! Kickstarter is more goal oriented, our initial users just want to know if someone is willing to buy (or places a pre-order for) their product and then start growing their business if the market pull & size makes sense. Would you happen to know anyone around you who is starting a business or wants to start one?
