    Smile Partner/Manager for hosting startup, Washington DC Area

    Long time lurker, first time poster,

    I'm looking for a business partner/manager for my web hosting company that i'm currently in the process of starting. I have the Name, LLC, Operating Agreement, Business Bank accounts, Physical hardware (Racked in a DC with prepaid year contract), and funding, but what I really need is someone who can split the load with me and be there to help the company grow (Long term, no fly-by-night operation here).

    I'm really open to anyone for this, as long as you know your stuff and can prove it, I don't really care what qualifications you have. Experience, Problem solving, and (some) people skills are a must, but outside of that, i'm open to gauge people on a case by case basis.

    Bonus points: humor will go a long long way with me.

    Shoot me a PM and lets see what happens (if you're interested).

    If you don't mind me asking - which data center are you located in? What is your 5 year plan with the business? What markets are you trying to hit? What services will you offer?

    DC: Dacentec, NC
    5 year plan: Have a detailed plan (Not willing to post it all here though), but its mostly incremental growth and a planned rate of expansion with X number of clients and X amount of usage per server as checkpoints.
    Market: Local small businesses and self employed internet services (have a ton of potential clients and access to an extensive networking group).

    as some one said, you need to have a post count of 5 before you can send or receive pms here. So either you cut on your lurking and start posting more ... or just share your skype or some other form of communication.

    @mods : Hope this is not against the forum rules (asking skype or email .. as I am doing this for the community, not my own selfish reasons .. just saying )

    That's interesting. I'm located in the Washington D.C area, perhaps we should get together and grab coffee. Where abouts are you located? Va, Md or DC?
