Question
I have a fantastic, well-developed idea for a new subscription/coaching service. I have the needed expertise in branding, design, user experience, curating the content, social media strategy, marketing, etc. The website is already drafted, and social media is up and running. Now I'm looking for someone who can help with business and financial planning, coordinating legal and accounting, and making sure we start smart. Essentially the left brain to my right. Where do you recommend looking for co-founders (outside word of mouth), and what is the best way to pitch (or to prepare myself and my business idea/setup) in order to get the "YES"?
Answer
There are Pitch Fests that allow you to do just that. Also join local MeetUp groups and ask the smartest and most business savvy people in your network if you can practice on them and get their feedback. Also record your pitch so you can see/hear yourself. Good luck!
