I have a start up that gained solid traction, featured in major publications, and approached by multiple investors (angels and VCs).
Thing is, I made a crucial mistake by partnering up with a friend instead of a business partner. Let's just say that he has sub-par work ethic, extremely low business IQ, and just is a plain pain in the a$$.
Under the circumstance that my business partner takes a crazy low equity stake to make room for a rockstar co-founder.. how can I find this co-founder?
Any websites, online methods, etc? It's not really good timing for me to "build my network long term" as I need a co-founder right now. Luckily, it's an easy sell to get someone to hop onboard given the traction so far of the start up.
Any ideas?
