Hi my name is Andrés, I'm 28 years old and I'm looking for a co-founder partner for OLYM 3, a video game and betting startup that aims to change the world of online games.First of all I apologize because my level of English is not good. This is precisely why I am looking for a co-founder who is native to English to adequately complement the profile of the company. My native language is Spanish, so we can have an app in English and native Spanish.In a few days I will start learning English, so in a few months we can begin to communicate better.NAMEFirst of all, let me explain why the name: In Greek mythology, the Titanomachy was a ten-year series of battles fought in Thessaly, consisting of most of the Titans (an older generation of gods, based on Mount Othrys) fighting against the Olympians (the younger generations, who would come to reign on Mount Olympus). The war was fought to decide which generation of gods would have dominion over the universe; it ended in victory for the Olympian gods.“When Zeus became an adult, he took Metis daughter of Oceanos as his accomplice, and she gave Cronos a drug to swallow. Under its influence he was forced firstto vomit up the stone, then the children that he had swallowed. Along with themZeus fought the war against Cronos and the Titans. They had been fighting for tenyears when Ge foretold that Zeus would be victorious if he took as allies those whohad been thrown into Tartaros. He killed Campe, who guarded them, and loosedtheir bindings. And then the Cyclopes gave Zeus thunder, lightning, and the thunderbolt;they gave Hades a helmet; and they gave Poseidon a trident. Armed withthese weapons, they defeated the Titans, threw them into Tartaros and set theHundred-Handers to guard them. As for themselves, they cast lots for dominion,and Zeus received power in the sky, Poseidon power in the sea, and Plouton power inthe house of Hades”. The three Olympic gods Zeus, Poseidon and Hades conquer the universe. This is how OLYM 3 was bornThe OLYM3.COM domain I have already registered.THE IDEAThe idea is to develop an "Olympus" of games, that is, an application that allows users to play video games and bet money among themselves increasing competitiveness and changing the online game ecosystem. These bets can be in 1vs1 games or even 3, 4 or 100 player tournaments. Fictional example Two users (Player 1 and Player 2) wish to play a game of CS: GO by betting 10$ each. They download and install OLYM 3. They choose game. Duration. Amount of money. And they make the bet. The winning user gets 18$ and OLYM3 earns 2$ as commission.Diagramhttps://i.imgur.com/9KRvRhL.jpgMinimum Viable ProductThe MVP should be an application that allows players to bet on a game in a basic way. Maybe we could start in 1vs1 games or small tournaments in a few years old game like Rise Of Nations or any shooter that uses small resources. Although this must be made clear when we start working. Remember that I am not a programmer, I can have in my mind very nice ideas but impossible to develop. Therefore, the MVP will adjust to what you as a programmer can develop.THE PLANSThis is a Startup, that is: A human institution designed to deliver a new product or service under the conditions of extreme uncertainty. We do not know who our customers will be or what our business model will be, the only thing we can do is go out to the market and test hypotheses. Since we do not have the money to invest, what we will do is look for help for startups that provide us with web hosting. Starting from this base, I think we should go to Azure, Amason AWS, google etc, get a pack of help to new companies and get hosting and assistance. After this, we launched a beta version of the web and the application and we go to the market to get customers via forums, twitter, facebook, etc. If everything goes well and we manage to do something interesting, we will go looking for private investors. Angel.co could be an option. http://ift.tt/2zDdB6W REQUIREMENTSFor all the above I want to make very clear the type of founder needed to avoid confusion from the beginning: I'M NOT LOOKING FOR AN EMPLOYEE: Unfortunately I learned that not everyone can be a founding partner with my personal experience. I tried to open a business with a good guy, but a bad entrepreneur ... and the experience was terrible.That's why I'm looking for an enterprising, active person, who does not want to be an employee but wants to build a great company in the future. 1) Full-stack programmer y basic knowledge of HTML to develop the beta of the web: I have no idea about programming so if you are not Full-stack but you think you can develop, no problem. The idea is to make the MVP in windows it is the easiest and fastest. We could also analyze the options of doing it in Android. 2) Experience: Experience is important but it is not fundamental. I have read that the ideal is to work with programmers who have at least 1 year of experience. However, if you do not have experience but consider yourself qualified to join the project, go ahead, it is not an impediment to contact me. I myself do not have experience but I feel like it and I am eager to build a company for the future, and I am able to lead the company strategically. If you are an inexperienced student but have enough programming knowledge to develop this application, go ahead and send me a private message. Of course, the lack of experience must be replaced with a total involvement and a determined entrepreneur spirit.3) Commitment: Availability of 4 hours a day, 5 days a week for the next 2 years. If you do not have time, you are not sure about undertaking or you have other obligations the best thing you can do with your projects since undertaking involves too much work and commitment.4)English as a native language:4) My native language is Spanish, so it is essential that your language is English or you have sufficient level of English to be able to write complex texts.My job will be marketing, strategy, social media & branding. I also know something about design, so I can design the web. Your job will be to develop the application. Although together we must help each other, you must know what I am doing and I must know what you are doing. The company will create it together. BASIC LEGAL ISSUES.All legal matters will be reflected on a sheet and we will sign them with hellosing or similar services in a partnership agreement. Here I leave the fundamentals. OLYM 3 estará divida así:ACTIONS OF THE COMPANY 51% for me. 49% for you If any of us retires from the company to the first year loses 90% of shares. If any of us retires from the company in the second year loses 80% of shares.EARNINGS50% for me 50% for you If any of us retires from the company to the first year loses 95% of profits. If any of us retires from the company in the second year loses 80% of profits.EXCLUSIVENESSNone of us can work for any company that competes in our market.SALE OF SHARES.None of us may sell shares to third parties without the consent of the other.These are some of the main guidelines then we will talk about deeper things like conflict resolution, economic problems, what to do in case of dissolution, etc. All this we will collect in a document and as I said, we will use an electronic signature or FAX service to sign the contract. ADDEDAs final thoughts, I want to insist on the fundamental profile of a co-founder. I do not look for an employee, this is not my company it will be our company, it will not be my idea, it will be our idea, we have to work side by side, fight against everything to make the company profitable. So please, if you do not have time if the idea does not convince you it is better that you do not join the project.It is impossible to launch a company if one of the founders does not love the idea, as I said, IT WILL BE OUR IDEA, OUR COMPANY. I'm not going to give you orders, we should both have initiatives, we should talk almost every day, we should try new things. So before contacting me, ask yourself the following questions:Am I willing to dedicate 2 or more years of my life to a betting and videogame company? Am I excited about the programming? I think the idea can be good?If the answer is yes, join and we are going to found a great company. If you do not like this idea, if you are not passionate about this odyssey, if you do not have time or if it does not attract your attention, it is better that you look for other projects, it is impossible to join a project that you are not passionate about.Keep in mind that if you join, we will spend whole years together, we will have to work together, help each other, feel the company as our own, the fault of success or failure will be both, we need, ultimately, passion. With nothing more to add, thanks for reading the post and I am delighted with any suggestion, criticism, questions, etc.A greeting!Andres.
