If you want someone to commit, you should let them know a) what is in it for them (equity? paycheck?), and b) what the level of your commitment is (investment? Quit your job?)
Good luck.
- master718 16y agoHi Peter Thank you for your comment and questions. Let me try to answer them as best I can. Of course there are networking sites out there that let people connect with each other, i.e facebook. But facebook is too general and is used more like an address book then a networking tool. When you see people connected you don't know the nature of the relationship. It's also very difficult to use it for professional networking since no one really posts what they are looking to do or who they are looking for. That is why niche sites likes modelmayhem.com are able to thrive and grow, because all users share something in common and work on similar projects. Because the CTO would be a partner in the firm the initial compensation will be in the form of equity, just like it will be for me. I am ready to commit funds to the project, and have others who are interested in doing the same. Once all the piece are in place I will leave my job and work on this venture full time
