Yeah, there is that.

I'm not sure how someone with a new company connected to grading would start though.
Do your own cards? - Yeah, there's some conflict there.
Have a friend let you do some cards? -Essentially the same problem
Advertise and see what business you get? - I'm not sure you'd get anyone without at least something to show them.

I've had a few ideas about grading for years now, realistically, I'm way too disorganized to make it work.
If I did give it a try though, I'd do a few of my own, but with a special serial number indicating that they were for testing/promotional purposes so they wouldn't be in the database as cards done in regular business.

Neither of the stickers currently out there have much if any separation from the people putting them on.
