Looking for a non-tech co-founder

http://wordpress.org

Hello! :)

I released a plugin on WordPress.org which I think has a very good concept and a potential to grow into a sustainable business model If done right but I just can't take it to the next step.

This is why I am looking for a non-tech co-founder to work remotely on this product, and work together to convert it into the next big thing.

I'm looking for someone who can talk to users, suggest features, market the product (marketing is very important I guess), suggest UX, and take the product to next level.

You can see and test the product from here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/member-chimp/

And if you wish to talk more about this, please contact me here or on Twitter. I'll be happy to have a chat.

Best,
Ahmed

    I really like the concept. I used to run a very large social networking site for sport fishermen.

    I tried at one time using BBPress but it did not work well.

    I assume you took things to the next level?

    How many users do you have now? And how do you intend to monetize it?

    Interested to learn more and see if I can help.

      I do not have many active installs yet, the internal API shows 14 active installs (these are people who approved tracking) but mainly because it's very hard to market a new plugin without marketing skills - I'm a tech guy.

      And how do I intend to monetize it? Through a yearly subscription which offers PRO features and premium support.

      The potential for PRO features is huge because I plan on adding features like private messages, groups, integrations to name a few. I know that people wanting to build online communities will hunt for these features.

      The market for this type of plugin is huge, but the main problem is "finding your audience/real users" - you're competing against established plugins that do the same thing. This is why I collected the negative feedback from the users of competitors' plugins and used that as a base to provide better UX/UI/mobile experience - and hopefully feature-wise in the future.
