Start up E-commerce company looking for advice/funds/partnership

My name is Corey Perkins and I am the co-founder of a website called thestudentshoppe.com. Last year, my business partners and I developed a website called campusmuscle.com at The Ohio State University. This website was devoted to providing health supplements to college students at an affordable price. We saw a large demand for our service in a very short period of time, so we have decided to develop a new website called thestudentshoppe.com. Our goal is to have this siteoffer a wide range of products from consumer electronics to paperback books. Our current distributors provide drop shipping for us which makes it possible for us to ship products to our customers around the country in 1-3 days. During the development we were able to obtain contracts with Ohio State, Pennsylvania State University, Miami University, and Ohio University to use their campus debit cards as payment options on our website. Currently at Ohio State there is over 15 million dollars each year in the debit card system that students can use at certain retailers around campus. It is estimated that there are currently 150-200 colleges and universities have campus debit cards totaling over 300 million dollars.
We are looking to launch our new website in the fall and are looking for start up funds/ partnership to take our business to the next level. We are looking for person/people with prior e-commerce experience who can provide guidance to grow our business.

Thanks,
Corey Perkins

Partnerup.com has done very well for me.Lots of financing when you post your deal.
Angel Investor Network | Venture Capital Firms | Funding is also good. Good luck
