  • How can I find investors?

    Okay so I'm going forward with my app creation but was wondering if anyone knows how I can find investors to propose my idea to. Is there like a website or something?

      Squeaky wheel gets the grease.

        Thank you @Green43 I did and seems like something I may give a go. Although I'm not lacking steady employment nor am I lacking verifiable credit history and I wouldn't exactly classify myself as impoverished but hey if they'll go for it I'll go for it. And I'm sure Xamarin won't care where the money comes from lol

        @youngblud I know what you mean but not quite sure how that is relevant unless you have some grease and you hear my wheel squeaking .

          Finding investors

          You can create app for trading interested people. By this you can easily get the investors.

            Good for you. You can try using social networking sites, post it online it's free and can reach so many in just a click.

              I'm contemplating how to get my own idea for an app made as well.

              I'd say for funding you should copyright the idea. Then throw it on kickstarter. Be sure to design a pretty appealing and comprehensive pitch. Possibly you could cut down the cost by finding a developer that is in school or working freelance. Also possibly use bargaining a % of revenue to offset the cost and it would help influence the developer to do a better job on the app probably.

                That is a good way to go, there are many amateurs who are also looking for experience and offers low charges for their services.

                  1. You can't copyright ideas.

                  2. It's no easy to find someone to write the app for you (especially if all you can give in return is a share of the company).

                  3. It's a lot more difficult to find investors, outside of friends and family.

                  4. Your best best is to learn to write the app yourself.
