    I am looking to set up an online business and could use a good consultant on matters. A web developer/designer w ebook/online marketing experience would be helpful. Where can I find someone to help me at as I know nothing about the technical side of online business. I have been procrastinating for years to get online. I think because my business model confuses me,lol. In anycase before I buy anything I'd like to have the right advice on, proper hosting, domain, etc. In short: I am starting from scratch and on a tight budget who do I go to? Often times people tell me to read this ebook and that ebook but I'd like to discuss my plans with someone either in person or over the phone. I just can't put all the peices together alone. Any advice where I can get some help? I hear elance is no longer the place to look for outsource help any one know where else I can find help because it's crucial that I succeed with this project as I have been studying online business for at least 5 years. I am tired of being on the sideline. Thanks.

    I think everything you need you can find in this board just go to another sub forum you can learn yourself.

    Ebook does help but go read a book about business. That should help you get a good and steady plan.

    I guess I must've given too much info.....let me try again. There are a trillion business models. I need a consultant or someone who is online so, they can help me put my personal goals into a doable plan. I know what I want to do, I even have a business model(somewhat),but, I don't know how to make it a finished product. The web developer/designer can help with the grunt work. Upload ebook, insert links, give me specific bandwidth advice. It'll be helpful if he was a techie turned marketer or at least knows the functions. This way it'll make my job easier. Elance and what ever other sites exist would be to locate this person. If you know where the outsourcers sites that you personally used and can surely reccommend please let me know. Thanks.
