If you had a MULTI MILLION DOLLAR internet website idea...

    Lets Close Our Eyes And Pretend...

    You were to come up with a BRILLIANT internet website idea. Lets also say that you did not have all the technical knowledge/skill to get an idea of this scale to completion. You could also imagine that your bankroll at the current time could not support your very promising internet idea.


    Lets also say your internet idea has potential for more than $5 million dollars in under a 6 month time frame. Knowing this possible potential means you cannot just disclose your idea to anyone, especially possible investors that you would need, for the pure fact of how easily it could be stolen.


    Recently feeling overwhelmed you contacted a few creators/ceo's of top internet based websites to see if they might be interested in a partnership of some kind. You feel with these individuals' expertise, experience, and funding, your idea could become real and be very profitable. You are awaiting responses but you feel your messages may not even reach the desired individuals.


    So what would you guys do if you woke up one day with this insanely possibly profitable website idea, but didn't have the funding to even buy the domain name.

    Thanks for taking this 'fictitious' journey with me and I appreciate the responses.

    I would work for it to get the funding. That's what I do now. The hard thing is getting all the money for the funding. Sometimes it's hard to earn and that you may not receive the earnings for awhile.

    You work your @$$ off for it. I got three credit cards + whatever I had laying around last year to help support an online investment. 1 year later = more in 12 hours then I made in my first month. It all depends on how motivated you are. This is a long term investment also, I don't expect anything to brag about for another 1-2 years.

    Doing what I did also motivated me to get more serious about working online. Things are going good now, but a lot of my extra money goes into acquiring more liquidity online.

    patent the idea.

    Funding is not hard to find, as long as the person funding gets a good % of the profits for as long as it runs.

    thanks for the replies guys really appreciate them :)

    And it is realistic, if it works it will make over 10 million in under a year, and if it doesn't work then it won't make anything.

    Just depends how well it is done. And the only thing that worries me about waiting till i "save" the money is if someone comes up with the idea while i'm saving :(
