Currently working on a project that is unique & cutting edge in this country. Potential for a large amount of customers, with multiple purchases per customer.

Returns will be based on long-term monthly subscription, with low overheads.

Needed? A company that might utilise to the full the potential, both in terms of final software development and then marketing/sales. Someone that can take the bull by the horns & shape into a winning concern.

On offer? The concept, contacts and work already entertained + committment into the project. Have worked long & hard for this & unwilling to see it die due to apathy & not on my part.

Question

Sounds like a load of corporate fluff to me, like something Dilbert would have to deal with.

If you actually want anyone to show any interest, you'll need to give more information than that. You haven't even given a contact email address!!!!!

Question

yep agree with MarkO need more info than that. Ideas are all very well but have you researched your target market? Have you identified a need? What is the competition for this product? If no competition exists perhaps there is a good reason for this etc. etc.

O and dont forget a detailed plan with realistic figures and you'll need a good 'management team'.

What happened to Hotmail? I thought it was free!

A suggestion for a free web based email service would be handy!

Product, potential, target market, strategy, etc all done.

Unit cost, ongoing costs, charge to customer, competition (actual & potential) all done.

Far too vague. And your first two posts have nothing to do with Subarus, which makes me think you're only here to look for funding, and are doing the same elsewhere.

Thumbs down

Erm, Hotmail is/was a marketing-based loss-leader used by a cash-rich corporation to hook people into something they ended up not being able to do without.
Product, potential, target market, strategy, etc all done. Unit cost, ongoing costs, charge to customer, competition (actual & potential) all done.
If all that's done, and it all pans out, why are you posting anonymously to a subaru board? Is the 'product' Scoob-related, or are you just fishing?

If the business plan's so good, surely you'd have people queuing up to give you VC?

Sorry, it sound like those little oar-holders on a rowing boat to me, only spelt with a 'b' instead of an 'r'.

I might also be a scoobynet regular who for whatever reason does not wish to post his or her personal id as that might compromise his/her current employment position.

BTW all IP is with myself on this.

Okay, let's assume for a minute you're not talking rollocks.

What sort of money are you talking here? What sort of return? What's the field (is it IT, or cars, or both)?

I'd email you offlist for further details, but you haven't given any contact details!

Zambia? You wouldn't happen to have $25,000,000 in an account which you need to get out of the country via my bank account, by any chance, would you?
