What does someone who is a venture capitalist or who is looking to invest in a start-up look for in a business idea?
I'm trying to picture myself in their shoes... having "saddlebags full of money" but it's really hard right now. If I could put my financial situation into an analogy it would be like driving a car down the highway, running out of gas, and being in the middle of nowhere with no gas in sight. Oh and there's huge tornadoes coming right towards me. Should be here in about 5 days...
I'm practically standing arm-outstretched with a sign saying "will give good ideas for gas!" haha. Ugh. Not how I wanted to be in this situation.
--- I think when people look to invest, they want to see potential for financial growth. Right?
Well this project will have at least 4 income streams:
1. Subscriptions
2. Online Store
3. Advertisements on the site,
4. Foreign Exchange investment company for long-term financial growth. (That's where the Bernie Madoff idea came from)
But it's not just financial backing I need... I also need help doing it... like site-design, php coding... I thought about using Joomla for the CMS as that's semi-user friendly and its got tonnes of cool features.
The content of the site would include anyways of making money online. From Work at Home jobs, PTC offers, HYIPs, Casinos, Forex, matrixes, Affiliate programs, MLMs, etc... the point is to create a place of Quality Discussion for our members so that they have an objective view on an opportunity. We would obviously have to remain neutral but would have to create rules to keep it social.
You might be asking
"Well what makes this one different than the sites you listed above?"
Well, I tell you what's the difference. The American Dream. When Ford was the only car-company, why did Chevrolet create a company very similar to Ford? Because they wanted to create competition, and what does competition do? It helps the consumer.
Remember that saying? "When banks compete, you win!" hehe. that's my goal here.
Let's say we get 20,000 people visiting the site daily, companies and programs will want to advertise here rather than a site that only gets 5,000 people a day. And they'll be willing to pay more...
If you have a community of 20,000 people, they will be more likely to stay with something they know well (why MSN Livesearch never took off) and this can allow us to offer more services like our own online store. And the coolest part of this whole plan is to keep them retained!
If we do some sort of profit share, whether it be for our premium subscribers, or for everyone.... people will be hooked! And using reliable processors like PayPal, Alertpay, and SolidTrustPay ... it gives our community easy,fast, and safe transactions.
The real kick comes from the Managed Forex program which is where the long-term profit will come from. If you thought Bernie Madoff was good, you will want to check this company out. Get in touch with me for more information.
I look forward to any emails/IM's or questions or PM's about this idea. I would LOVE to start networking with people... the only thing I'm worried about is the time-frame regarding myself.
Best regards,
Richard
