Online E-Sports Business, Very Profitable Need Investor
Hello I am Curtis McPhail, I have been developing an Electronic Sports business for a while. I have been putting together a business plan for this website. It is for online gaming and tournaments. There is a fee to sign up, I have already predicted 10,000 of the people that I know on the internet would sign up.

I have:
Design
Price sheet
Business plan
Power Point
Domain



I need:
Design coding ($15,000 - $18,000 by IMG (InnateMediaGroup)
Anti-Cheat Client coding ($5,000)
In-game module coding (So people can join our game servers and we will have our own plugins/mods) (I have been talking to a few people price is not yet final)
Hosting ($179.40/year)
LLC or other registration ($100 - $500/year) "COULD BE MORE"
Dedicated Servers to host our game servers ($6,055.5 Quarterly -This is a start, will be enough for launch of website)

If I can think of any other needs I shall list them.

So far we are looking at $29,734.9 to completely launch this website.

I already have a design, the site just needs coding.

I just need to pay for the site coding.
The Anti-Cheat client
Some few minor things that would need explaining.

I'm looking at $10,000-$15,000.
Can you PM me a link to the design? I might be interested in helping you out.

Hello Curtis,

I think your cost are a bit inflated. How do you plan to get your site coded? Have you done some budgeting/cost-engineering on that already?

I am also curious about how do you plan to obtain a reasonable ROI with your business. I can see you have put some forecasting on adoption, but will usage be monetizable?

Why yes
Why yes I understand you're concern, but the price is just the lowest cost I would think it cost. A ton of things need to be worked on, I have only listed small things because if I list anymore the ideas is off to the public.

Have you advanced on something? Have clients already? Users at least?

On top of the development costs, supporting 10,000 users will ahve other administrative costs. Also, if you are offering monthly membership, there's 24x7 support you may potentially need (not phone, administrative and on-call).

If you have a spec and an NDA, I'd be happy to look at your requirements and give you an idea on costs. Send a PM if interested. Thanks.
