E-Commerce mentor?

It's a little embarrassing but I know a lot of guys on this site have successful e-commerce sites, or develop them. It'd be great to speak with a 'mentor' on the issue who is available by email or msn or skype for some basic top level guidance. I really want to give this a go but want to spend my money wisely! Currently I don't know where to start! Off the shelf, SEO, outsourced web dev....
