Hello all,

This is my first post however I have been reading these forums for some time. I have recently come up with what I think is a great business idea on the internet however lack the programming and design skills necessary to realize my dream. I am a 22 year old university student graduating this year from a commerce program. I am located in Toronto, Canada and ideally would like to find someone to work with in Canada although this is not essential. Although I will not publicly disclose my idea, what I will say is that it is an innovative idea for a web-based business with virutally no market at the present time. This is nothing to do with spam, ad sense or selling some scammy e-book. My idea is focused on targeting a worldwide audience and providing an opportunity for persons to put themseves in to business in a sense. As for a business partner, I am only interested in people who have considerable knowledge of programming and web design. I prefer an ambitious and young business minded individual with the neccesary skills however will not discriminate based on age. If you are interested in possibly working with me or getting more information please PM and we can go from there. You will be required to sign a non-disclosure agreement should we decide to discuss the idea further in depth. With that said I would just like to say thank you to the creators of this site for having a beneficial and innovative impact on young minds everywhere. I hope to speak to some of you soon. Thank you.

Please take it from someone who's been thought it and made mistake b4.

People will only truly follow you if they see you taking action and risking it first. And they also like what they see.

No one will truly follow you because you are stating one grand scheme to chagne the world.

If anyone tells you otherwise, run away. Don't look back.

Develop the skills that are needed. At least on basic level & get started on your own.

I understand if you disagree.. because at one point I was there where you are. But I did what I can to help you out.

Hi Es,

Thank you for your comments. Just to clarify I am not proposing a grand world changing scheme at all, just a simple idea that I believe has potential. I have started and owned several websites before which I have designed from the ground up however for this particular project I require skills that are beyond my knowledge and I know that. For this reason I decided to post to see if anyone with the necessary skills would be interested in getting involved. I do not require any capital or investment, other than time. This was the intention of my post and I understand your caution of people jumping on board for the wrong reasons. Thank you for your advice and if anyone is interested please let me know.
