I will be honest, I am sick and tired of building stuff that "I think is cool and no one else does". I just don't "get" how people obtain feedback before building just yet; I have put up landing pages, gathered 50-100 emails for a project, launched, and then
crickets.
I know my weaknesses (it's not tech, or launching, its validation and marketing), so I want to try an experiment:
1. Post an idea, with an estimated price to the consumer:
eg; online service that will photoshop a photo for 9.99$ (something I have tried fwiw)
2. Have it be webbased (no iphone/droid apps, currently in-between macs)
3. The first idea that gets 10 people to email me: [email protected], and say they will pay upon launch, I'll build it.
4. if you want to take an active marketing/bizdev role, and have a proven track 50/50 split.
5. If you want to take an active marketing role, and don't have a proven track record 75/25 split (my way).
6. If you don't want to take an active role 90/10 split (my way).
As the ideas are posted, if something pops up you would pay for, email the idea, and any tweaks you deem needed.
