If you weren't sounding so tired and burned out I would recommend that you double down on marketing and promoting. I wouldn't give up until I had given it a good flogging! But, if you're burned out you're going to find that difficult and probably it won't work with that kind of mindset. Either farm out the marketing to a new partner or wait and do it yourself but either way take a few months off!

Thanks. I do need to market hard. I think I need a break and then do as you suggest. Thanks.

You can start by providing link here. It might help.

Thanks for the suggestion but I don't think it's appropriate right now.
Are you being too nice not posting a link (or maybe you have a technical reason)? I was a little hurt when a friend said I wouldn’t be a good business man as I wasn’t cut throat enough. My friend wasn’t being entirely wise but there was a little truth in there.
I have been selling a subscription service to schools now for 10 years, enough for me to work part-time on the project. Biggest leap in customers I had was through an educational fare. It cost about £6000 to exhibit if I remember.
