Who are you, and what do you do? I live in middle europe. I am working in IT currently networking area but my responsiblities are: contracts and management of task automation system. What did you try? Few years ago i have tried to develop some sort of cloud analytical service for HR agencies. How would you describe your loss? Service stucked somewhere at the middle since i had other personall and work tasks, responsibilities, opportunities. This was only side project. My main loss was missed opportunity since i had potentially paid customer with request for demo or trial accout. Other losses were mainly time and effort (not so much money to hurt me). What did you learn? tl;dr: have a money to pay other people in an effort to avoid own overhelming. Long explanation: My learning experience was quite a fundamental business practice: I have to surround with people with same attitude or at least with exitement for the thing. I found out that good firends have full time job,families,hobbies. They want to help me but not at so deep level (only from-time-to-time during weekends,what is enough for building viable product). Other people who have skills and know-how,has lot of other work and own opportunities. So they are thinking what worth for them in terms of money. Does it mean, if you pay me more than i have from X, i will give you my time. Quite logic for me. Now i have the same mindset. Since I have limited budget i tried to do most critical tasks on my own, but it overloaded me. I found out that beside of money, social network is also very important. If i would know people who know other people, it could be easier to find right people. Now i changed my approach and i am cooperating with some smart guys with entreprenurial mindset and we splitted responsibilities with deep communication and feedback giving. One is focusing on business part,other on hardware part,another on software. It seems to be working. After current project we have planned another. Out-of-topic: Funny thing for me, Year ago I was thinking about exactly the same thing, but i put it into my idea-draft-file and didn't realize it. I wish you good luck with this project. You will have at least one reader :-) Note2: you didn't ask for any advice in regards to your idea, but i would like to share my some of my thougts from my own development of this kind of idea. This is some sort of creative business where stories are selling. It's important to have good storytelling baseline. Because only story which connect can bring value. People are reading and recommend (this is important for this kind of project/business) only good story which touch them. But not all of us are good storytellers from nature. I think every "sucess story" has been revised and little bit improved to hit and cobnect right people.
