Big Ideas? I've got 'em! - Looking for developer(s) for execution. 😀
Hi all,
First off, thank you for taking the time to check out my posting!
I'm not selling any product, service, 'get rich quick or die trying' scheme. I'm looking for the absolute right kind of technical wizard (or wizards) that will further compliment my skill set so we can bring some ideas to fruition.
My background is eclectic:
- Worked for
- Launched 2 of my own companies (in vastly different markets)
- Have worked in science, manufacturing, musical equipment, education, medical and media spaces
- Skills: Web/Graphic Design, UI/UX, Relational Database Design, Product Design, Project Management, Marketing, PR/AR, Tech Evangelism, Virtualization/Infrastructure, Writing, Photography, Audio Engineering, Film Editing.
I'm just technical enough to get myself into trouble (recently, I've gone down the rabbit hole with The Odin Project).
I've got a highly creative entrepreneurial mindset and I've worked on my own for the last 7 years.
Due to my experience in many different industries, I've developed a decent understanding of their in's and out's and have also networked myself into a position to be connected to some high-level players in a few different fields. As such, I've come up with an array of ideas, all of which are in the incubation stage. What I need is someone or a few people, that live and breathe code. I enjoy the no-code movement for rapid prototyping, but I'm interested in partnering up with skills that I don't have. It takes a small group of smart people to reach the highest echelons of development and 'fit' is everything when you're in the trenches giving birth to an idea.
Even though I am an optimist, the realist side of me fully comprehends that having an idea is only part of the equation. Execution and outreach are crucial. I've learned that you can have the best product in the world, but if no one knows about it, it will not gain traction in the market.
I'd like to get to know a little bit more about you. Rather than comment on this or drop emails, here's a link to a quick Typeform that I put together with a few salient questions. If any or all of this sounds like it might be a great fit for what you are looking to invest some time in, please, check out this link and let's get the ball rolling!

Next steps: I'll be in touch, one way or another. If we're a good fit, we can share a digital cup of coffee and some conversation and take it from there.
Thank you in advance for both your interest and your time!
As unfortunately often is the case with these types of requests the most crucial piece of information is missing: What are those big ideas you're talking about?
That doesn't mean you have to give away everything .Just a rough description of the industry and the problem you're trying to address would suffice. Without knowing that it's impossible to say if your ideas are worth working on.
If on the other hand you're merely looking for someone to build whatever you come up with you're more likely looking for an employee rather than an equally entrepreneurially-minded partner.

Hey Ben, filled out your form; would be interested in chatting. I find it appealing that you're a no-code fan — I've been thinking for a bit that no-code would be a good way to roll an MVP and then evolve into a coded solution once some baseline metrics are hit / initial users are acquired and idea is validated.
Hey Zach, thank you and yep, I’m a fan on no-code for the reasons that you’ve mentioned. I’d certainly be interested in chatting! I’ll reach out to you in short order!
Wow, thank you everyone for the overwhelming response. It is truly and genuinely appreciated! 🙏
