I have an idea and I'm looking for a Co-Founder

| Description | | | | Hello future co-founder! I’m Mike, and I bring a diverse 12-year career as a sales engineer, customer-facing engineer, and tech entrepreneur. In the tech world, I’ve primarily worked as a sales or customer-facing engineer in marketing automation SaaS and search and discovery SaaS, mainly for e-commerce where I’ve excelled in my career.
As an entrepreneur, I’ve started a couple of businesses in the past. One was a successful real estate content business (3D tours, plans, photography, drone footage) in Massachusetts that I grew significantly over a year and a half. I also ventured into the blockchain space, raised funding from industry leaders, and traveled the world for a year building a team and securing additional funding. Ultimately, that didn’t pan out, but it taught me valuable lessons and gave me a few scars.
Now, five years later, I’m back wiser (I think) and more focused on product and market fit. My attention has shifted to e-commerce, where I’ve gained extensive experience analyzing customer data through Google Analytics and BI tools. With my engineering background, I’ve built a full-stack app and already have paying subscribers. Currently, I’m juggling multiple roles as CEO, CTO, CMO, and COO. However, I’d prefer to narrow my focus to either a CTO/COO or CEO/CTO role. |

| What am I looking for | | | | My business launched a few weeks ago, and we’re in the alcohol subscription box space. I’ve built everything myself—from the front end (which could use some TLC) to the backend, database, payments, and order flow management. We’re fully licensed and compliant. With a very limited ad budget, I’ve landed three subscribers who seem happy, and one even gave us a shout-out on social media when they received their box! Right now, my time is mostly spent improving the web app experience, analyzing Google Analytics, and fulfilling orders, but I know I’m falling short on the marketing side. I’m also a bad marketer.
I’m looking for a co-founder who has experience as a D2C CMO, VP of Marketing, or Marketing Lead. What matters most to me right now is commitment, strategic vision, and execution.
Commitment: My goal is to grow this business beyond 1,000 subscribers and frankly, become a millionaire. I need a co-founder who shares that ambition and is willing to grind alongside me until we reach that milestone. I’m confident we can get there.
Strategic Vision: I believe I have great vision of where this can grow to as a scalable platform and adding additional complimentary "products". I need a co-founder with marketing savvy and a clear marketing vision. What emotion does our brand evoke? What is our identity? How should we balance time between paid ads, organic growth, and grassroots campaigns? What innovative growth hacking ideas would you bring to the table?
Execution: Are you someone who follows through? Will you roll up your sleeves to create content, set up A/B tests, and continually push the needle forward to attract more subscribers?
