Hey guys,

I specialize in biz dev and seeking a technical co-founder to build out this untapped market.

Thoughts?

Thanks!

Takeaction,

Your username was created 1/2 hour ago. You have one submission and one comment, so I can't but guess that you might be fairly new.

If so, you might be unaware that you will be fighting an uphill battle. The gist of posts and comments I've seen hare are that great ideas are not the hard part, that there are lots of great ideas around, and implementation is the hard part.

I have seen several "I have this great idea hook me up with a programmer" posts and one "I am a great programmer hook me up with an idea" post. That one was a sarcastic joke.

Yep, big uphill battle. Theres a million of these posts and I don't see any effort to make you stand out. Saying you are "Biz dev + have a big idea" is really not going to cut it.

Yea, the founding team is important. Seems like most dev talent has been accounted for by the funded startups?

A little more about the idea would be helpful. What are you looking for?

Hey, I'm looking for an experienced developer, designer to bring this idea to beta. The closest competitor would be mint.com but even then, they missed this target.

Are you a developer?

Vagueness will get you no where with this crowd. You may want to read the following: http://www.humbledmba.com/please-please-please-stop-asking-h... . My intention is not to be rude but I think you need to understand the context of what you are asking. You will not find what you are looking for here, nor are you attacking the problem with the right strategy, as such you are setting yourself up for failure.
