1 comments
This is the technical co-founder question in different skin. Most creative people don't want to "put a pretty face" on your idea. The best way to find creative talent is to get them excited about the idea early on and involve them through the project.
The problem with this is that creative people are authorial bring them to "put a pretty face" on other idea is hard work. I have this problem while trying to develop my startup idea (http://mypileof.com) I'm technical and it is hard to found the "creative" or even "business" side...
I know crowdsourcing may fit some quick/simple projects, but for more complex projects that require ongoing collaboration and effort, it seems a more dedicated partner would be a better fit.
What are some good ways to find solid creative talent to help partner for solo projects?
