MenuDoes anyone know how signal boosters work?
I am looking for someone to teach me exactly how signal boosters work, how they are built, what materials are needed and what do I need to manufacture one.
Answers
From what i know basically, a cell phone booster works by pulling in weak signal, boosting it, and then rebroadcasting it inside your area in need.
If I understand, you're asking about either WiFi or Fiber long haul boosters.
Tip: You'll likely require many millions to effectively develop, warehouse, market this type of device.
You'll also be competing with companies with multi-million per year marketing budgets.
If I were going to do this... first, I'd think twice as this will be a very difficult business with a high likelihood of failure, unless you have an unlimited budget available.
If I did have an unlimited budget, I'd likely focus on tech supporting WiFi only (no Fiber) with 802.11ac running over 802.11s (mesh network) where I could acquire low cost hardware, likely manufactured in China.
Ensuring https://dd-wrt.com would run on the hardware.
Then I'd do some value add to DD-WRT functionality, where the value add would be the basis of some unique marketing message.
And... Wow... There are many far easier ways to generate income with far more likely success.

How can I target small business owners and managers looking for mobile or internet plans?
Lead with the timing question in your marketing. IE. Sort your prospects by whether they're almost out of their existing plan or not. A quiz might be great if you can capture the lead with that information ("We have important info for you depending on when your existing plan expires")...you could sort the leads by expiry time. You're not "in" the market--like a car dealer is, when they know who bought a car four years ago and is about to get 'the itch'. So you have to go wide and sort. But you can do it intelligently as I suggested.JK

What factors determine good geographic areas for telehealth implementation?
Hello, my name is Erik and as a Senior Analyst Programmer in marketing I had the opportunity to build targeted leads list for sales agent, witch is quite similar to your goal with this question. You are on good track with your suggestion of using multiple models to determine your "customers" potentials by areas, internet availability, etc. We can also think of people age, specific area's health problems, etc. There's multiple trends we could find by managing all the information in a structured database. If you are interested to develop this idea combined with data mining/analysis skills, I will be happy to help you. I look foward to help you on a call and don't hesitate to send me a message if you have questions. Regards, ErikEH

How to find a co-founder for a communication device?
If you're talking about building your own communication device, then you'll need someone who has experience building hardware and the software required to control it. But anyone you're going to talk to is going to need convincing that you can provide the capital necessary to get this off the ground. You need to either convince them that you are a very able online marketer and that you'll be able to successfully crowdfund the initial devices or that you're able to fundraise pre-product, otherwise, it's highly unlikely you will find someone willing to invest the necessary time and energy to build even a prototype. Happy to talk to you in a call to provide more details.TW

What is the best way to find full stack mobile developers who are willing to work with me for equity, and what is fair compensation?
It's highly unlikely that you will be able to find competent full-stack mobile developers willing to work with you for equity, but if you do, "fair" compensation would be 50% or more of the equity in the Company. Approaching any developer with just an idea, diminishes your credibility as a potential co-founder. Here's why: If you're non-technical, you must show a "relentless resourcefulness" in moving your idea forward. This means finding the money necessary to get an MVP or even click-able prototype completed to show that while you might not be technical, you have the ability to raise money, and have enough product sense that you can articulate that into a prototype. If you can't raise or spend the relatively small amount of money required to successfully build a prototype, what evidence are you providing that developer that you are going to be able to create value for the business long-term? Full-stack mobile developers (although this is often quite a misnomer) are one of the most in-demand skill-sets of all Silicon Valley companies. That means that you're competing against established companies that can pay top dollar, and still provide meaningful equity incentives as well as recently funded startups who have further along the road in turning their idea into reality. I would suggest that you look at hiring contractors (I know of some great mobile dev shops that are reasonable) to build your first version. Expect to go solo at least until you have some form of early prototype. Then, you're in a much better position to attract a technical co-founder. Happy to talk you through any of this at any point.TW
