$300 is the budget. I am using WP. My developer is working on the network itself, so he does not have time. I need to have the site done through outsourcing.

Check us out at http://www.crunchbas...pany/gr8erminds, to see what we are doing. We need interns, and are offering high paying salaries, to those that are interested in working for us. We create highly disruptive innovations, that compete very well in which ever market they are being released in. We are the future. We are hiring.

I'm afraid $300 isn't enough of a budget to get this work done. Unless you can up your budget I'm afraid I'll have to close this thread.

Out of the things that are on the list, what can I get done? I need the user registration for sure. Contact Us, showcase, Advertising, Forums/Faqs, and Domain Transfer are the others that are needed right now. I can negotiate the rest of the stuff, as my budget will be rising for the third time, this coming up week. We are getting investments, everyone. The software is in development. If you want the job we are posting about, it's yours. Otherwise, thank you for your time.

'PerSer' is the future of social media'

With a budget of $300.. I don't think so.

(I'm sure creators of Twitter and Facebook are having sleepless nights)

Can you be a bit more specific on the advertising - I take it that you want a banner at the top of the page and a widget that I assume goes into a sidebar? Also, what will the content of these adverts be - Google Adsense scripts or images that you upload yourself?

I am sorry, I don't know whether it should be adsense or images. I just want to set up whatever advertising I can. However you deem cheapest, but most effective. This is just a holding site, until we are 4 weeks out of launch. Then the next site goes live, and the next. Finally, you will get to work on the porting of the network to the PC, after the android users get first taste. Do a good job, and you get to make the next 3 websites that follow, as a part of our staff, getting paid.

I have more money, I am just trying to see what people are into. Perks and stuff.

Let's be clear here. Software start-ups are everywhere. They don't make it because of money. They make it because of the people they choose to associate with and work as a team with. Facebook started in a dorm room. We have 7 months in on this project. Don't be so quick to comment on what we are doing. What are YOU doing?

To everyone interested, this is an opportunity. I don't want a few people to bring it down, and not allow you your opportunity. We are looking for the brightest minds available. I can get them as interns from IUPUI, smart kids, people with sense, and a willingness to move forward and help with our technology.

If you knew what this was, and were in the loop, you would know that this is a huge venture. But, as it is, I can only tell you that, if you do this for us, and you do it right, I will offer you a six figure career. from $100,000, to $999,999. This is real.

Please, no more cynicism. Either way, this is getting done. The interns want this job, India has no problem taking this project. You want it?

Our holding company, Gr8erMinds LLC. http://www.crunchbas...pany/gr8erminds . A few of our milestones. We are close to securing a major deal, with a massive computer hardware company. A name you know well.

At a fairly typical UK rate of £25 per hour, your budget represents less than 8 hours' work. Your only chance of getting the work done for that budget is outsourcng to India. Now, I'm in no way dismissive of Indian developers; there are some very talented developers in India. If you want to spot them, here's a big clue: they're not the ones who are touting for any and all low-budget work on a UK-based forum (this, by the way, is what has given Indian developers a bad name - it's not that they're all bad, it's just that you never see the good ones because they get 99% of their work from word of mouth). So basically with that budget you're scraping the same barrel with Indian devs as you would with British or American, with the added disadvantage that your first language is their second language.

So whether you're looking for a developer from the UK, the US or India the adage holds true: if you pay peanuts, you get monkeys.

It's probably best if you prioritise the aspects you feel you would want to get done first, then budget to get them done.

In this case it seems your main interest lies with getting your advertising in place. Get quotes for this and get it done.

I'm not the one who is wanting people to create the next Facebook for $300. You could do it for free like they did (if you have the creative flair and coding skill which obviously you don't as you are asking people on here to do it for $300)

I have read your website about WHAT PERSER IS.

There is a lot of waffle but no real answer.. After 7 months development?

I'll watch and wait for this new wonder social media. Perhaps I will be proved wrong, in which case I will have to eat humble pie, but for now.. I AM OUT!

One could argue that if it's a sure thing, then it no longer qualifies as "gambling".

Discuss.

Yeah, I thought about that after I wrote it. I guess I was just trying to iterate that this is something worth gambling on, because, though you may not know the odds of it succeeding, WE do. Gambling for you, sure thing for us.

I think the first thing you guys need to do is cut the gambling idea and budget for a real tried and tested developer to come on board on the website side of things to lick this in to shape.

I like the idea of the Android app but it'll need a good informative website behind it and currently this is where you are lacking.

Scrape your funding together and come up with enough to hire a developer and you'll reap what you've sown.

It looks as though we have found our developer, through this site. We should have our site live in a couple of weeks, give or take.

The problem with giving information, is that we are very innovative. Our IP portfolio is going to be massive out the gate. Most of the things we are doing, have never been attempted, how we are attempting them, so, at this point in time, most of PerSer is considered proprietary information, and is non disclosurable. We will be releasing these details as we get parts of the code completed.

I know it is not much to go on, the site that is, but we have spent our time wisely, and are focusing our efforts primarily on the network itself. Website is secondary.

Hmmm... ok. I have my doubts but I'd wish you luck and would be interested to see the finished results. I think you have to understand you may be met by a certain amount of cynicism making claims like that on here, because of the sheer volume of people that come on and make that claim. However - the best of luck and I hope that it works out for you (and the developer).

As was stated above, we hear this a lot on here and it never comes to anything but all the best in your venture and hopefully you'll take heed of some of the help i've tried to give.

I do understand. Thank you. We have known since the beginning, that PerSer was going to be attempting to break the rules. "The little guy gets the big chance," kind-of story. Go big or go home. The investors we have gotten, up to this point, know that our prototype alone, is mouth watering, and we have only shown about 8 people. Imagine when the beta is launched in 6 weeks (maybe more), to the public. Or even when we get more UI shots up. I have them all, I am just terrified that we will be copied, and lose this major advantage. We figure, once people/business see the UI and Framework of PerSer itself, we will have to hold them off with sticks.

I very much have. If you want to be in the loop, I can give you information as it happens. Let you know, where we are in production/development, site updates, things like that. We are definitely in a position, that not many at all, are in. We have done our homework, and have established a nice robust network of people, consultants, attorneys, patent lawyers, accountants, visual media specialist, and are talking to the big guys right now.

I must admit, about 12 months ago a company approached me asking me to take gambles. Telling me they were going to be big in the game , would fly me out to 90210 for press launches etc.

This company was www.gamedunzo.com. This company is now huge and grossing millions of dollars. I wake up every morning, look out at the Great British weather and think WHY THE **** AM I NOT IN BEVERLY HILLS!

Kicking yourself. We just hired 2 web developers, through IUPUI. They are amazed at what we are doing, and want nothing more, than to say, "we are apart of this". They are young and full of innovation.

Yeah we're taken down the clinic and have the creativity part of our brain removed automatically when we're 28. Similar to a frontal lobotomy but with far more attractive nurses and better background music. :spiteful:

At a fairly typical UK rate of £25 per hour, your budget represents less than 8 hours' work. Your only chance of getting the work done for that budget is outsourcng to India. Now, I'm in no way dismissive of Indian developers; there are some very talented developers in India. If you want to spot them, here's a big clue: they're not the ones who are touting for any and all low-budget work on a UK-based forum (this, by the way, is what has given Indian developers a bad name - it's not that they're all bad, it's just that you never see the good ones because they get 99% of their work from word of mouth). So basically with that budget you're scraping the same barrel with Indian devs as you would with British or American, with the added disadvantage that your first language is their second language.

So whether you're looking for a developer from the UK, the US or India the adage holds true: if you pay peanuts, you get monkeys.

Am an indian developer and I could not agree with you more :)
You really got hold of a nerve there and solved one of my biggest dilemmas. How the f do these people work for such ridiculously low pay?
just a correction.. English is the first language for many of us Indians now.
Cheers!

I just said this in another post.

You know what's cool? A trillion dollars. Yeah, it may be from the movie, but, a trillion dollars is an easy number to reach, being that Gr8erMinds LLC has 80 other Products that it will be producing, upon monetization of PerSer.

We are the real. This is how you do it.

I already own a conglomeration, and we haven't even started yet.

From your twitter page :

"We have found a solution, to one of the most difficult undertakings in life. We have developed a door, that you need only to walk through."

"We all have problems meeting new people, but that problem will soon be forgotten."

"Created with the WORLD in mind, we have re-defined the internet, unveiling it's true power. This is only the beginning."

"We are now finishing the prototype of our Social Media Consolidation effort. The end all to Facebook, Twitter, and many others."

From your page on crunchbase : crunchbase page

"PerSer™, is the door to humanity"

"But, not only does PerSer™ have the ability to make life easier for the masses, IT IS THE MOST FLUENT BUSINESS MODEL EVER CONCEIVED TO DIRECTLY MARKET AND ADVERTISE TO INDIVIDUAL CONSUMERS."

"No trade secrets disclosed, but, we have the ability to multiply any industries business, by a minimum of 5 times. Direct Advertising. It gets no simpler than this."

*** END OF QUOTES ***


Sorry about pilfering material from elsewhere but it is after all publicly available. I don't know what to make of this. I'd be interested to know what other people on here think.
Some of these claims you're making sound like they're out in the stratosphere somewhere.
