Looking for a non-tech co-founder

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 p

    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.
