 Tips for finding a person to start a business?

So as I continue to work on launching my newest “venture” (which means I’ve put a few days of work and ~$200 bucks to get it started) I keep talking to people about it, trying to get ideas and get some feedback on the viability of the model.

What’s really interesting to me though, is that NOBODY has actually offered to help. Nobody has said “hey, do you need help in creating this?” or “are you looking for a partner to fund the site?”

I’ve gotten at least 3 people involved in one way or another - whether looking at the site or actually talking about the details - and not one of them has shown some interest. Perhaps it could be because I would be the owner and they wouldn’t have a say on what goes on. But, honestly, if that was the issue, why not be candid about it and say “If I help, are we 50-50?”

I’m really curious as to why people haven’t shown interest. Is the idea not good enough? Are people not self motivated enough to want to do it? Did the guys at Google told people what they were doing and nobody offered to help them?

Curious to hear what you think about this, so drop a comment.
