    Are you looking for a project?

    I started this project a few years ago and got a lot of interested people (roughly 200 entrepreneurs) but the interest died down when the development of the site was too slow. We have since finished our development of the site but it was too late. I lost the momentum that was there.

    The concept was to get one entrepreneur to sign up to our site for every zip code in the USA. Essentially creating a marking army of 80,000 people strategically spread throughout the US. The site would be non-bias to any one entrepreneur. A point system rewards entrepreneurs to help other entrepreneurs with new business...using those points to gain visibility and sales within the network.

    Anyway, I believe in my concept but I need help. If you are an entrepreneur looking for for a project to get involved with please let me know.

    Check out the site here: Untitled Document

    Why's the website titled 'untitled document'? Looks like an interesting idea though.

    Ya I have the same question about untitled document, looks like the name of the flash landing page you used? May I suggest you to move that Flash video (which is quite good by the way) to your actual site? An entrance page with all flash screws up SEO, and the "enter site" button has similar color as the overall background so its difficult to spot.

    Having said that, I think your idea is very interesting. My first reaction was to sign up immediately, unfortunately I am in a Canadian post code? Do you want to expand it a bit? I mean North America shares the same post code system it should not be too difficult to add us right?

    It sucks to lose momentum due to delay in development, I had that experience before. May I ask how did you get the 200 interested people at the first place? Why could not you repeat the same process and do it again? Small businesses need a platform to network so the demand is right there. Although I am curious about your revenue model... ads?

    I don't know why it says 'untiltled document' either. Thanks crowdlanced for the advice. I am not much of a techie.

    Crowdlanced, I don't think we are ready to add Canada yet but I really appreciate your interest and mostly your advice.

    I got the 200 people from a local meetup site: WORKING TOGETHER INDEPENDENTLY (Rochester, MI) - Meetup . It grew instantly over 6 months to a year but then we stopped promoting it. People come and go now because we had no activities. The core team kinda gave up on me and I got so busy with my business at the same time, so I stopped everything.

    Anyway, I am ready to start it back up again since the system is pretty much ready now.

    Thanks Dan

    I am going to check out the meetup site, both this and your website offers great value to entrepreneurs who need to network with each other. I wish you the best of luck for your business.

    Wow, I'm kinda curious in the title of your link, by the way why does it was Untitled Document. That was really interesting.
