When an ideas there but not so simple to sell?

As ive been working on various things I believe ive come across an untapped income source. I have researched this and theres no mention of it on here or anywhere else ive looked.

My problem is that the method may be classed as hard to set up for some people and I cant create an automatic way because each person who implements it will need to also do some work too.(someone good with code may be able to do this)

Now this method which I dont want to just say here has the potential to create thousands upon thousands of payments but I dont know what to do. If I release it as a WSO it will work but im not sure if I just do that its the best thing. Ive not created a WSO myself before so that also isnt a help.

Theres no major software involved although it needs some setting up that may be a bit technical.

The question is do I look for a main investor who knows a lot to buy this or just make a WSO ebook kind of thing?

    You have a method which will earn thousands and thousands for others but not yourself?

      It will make anyone including me thousands but the problem is im not good enough to make all the webcode needed to complete this.

      It needs a script setting up that I cant make so id rather ask and share with somone who knows more than keep it secret and make nothing until I learn how to make the parts of the code I have no clue about.

        Pay a programmer x amount to sort your scripts out and then do the method yourself. Programmers are so easy to find now that coding shouldn't be a problem. Seems like a waste of time learning to code when coders are already out there who are professional and will always write better code then you unless you take it up full time.

          Every word true but my gripe with that is the coder will know what this is then and may be the type to just implement it themself or post it in some other place loosing its advantage. I know

          I sound para maybe but ive never heard of this done before. its so stealth even running no one would know really without having to scrutinise. Its intention is to be set and forget with cloning as the expansion method. Once set up theres little you can do beyond that exept promotion but because of its nature that isnt classed as a big deal. Spam the right places and it will do its own thing.

          I could maybe fake the way it works to get the code done then convert it back to what I need. I can code but im not pro, I can make databases ect and sites but this is a specific script to do a job and it is imperative it works exactly right to make sure the cash comes in.

            Do you know how to market? If so, crowd funding is the way to go because you get paid in advance and if done correctly, you'll have plenty of funds that will allow you to pick from the cream of the crop in regards to coders.

            It's only natural being paranoid about somebody stealing your idea. What you want to do is have them sign an NDA (Non-disclosure agreement).

            This agreement obligates the developer to keep information about your project secret.

            If you're still uneasy, hire an Attorney that can advise you about your rights and how to protect them, make sure that the attorney has experience in intellectual property law.

            Everyone seems to let fear stop them in their tracks.

            Better to do nothing than do something someone else might copy.

            It never occurred to you that a coder likes coding? Why would he switch from what he likes to do to something he knows nothing about?

            Do you think he is worried you might see how easy it is to make money writing code and suddenly become a coder and steal his customers?

            I have seen many of these "I have a secret way to make thousands but I don't know how to do it myself and I don't want to 'give it away' to others" ideas.

            Most of them are not actually very lucrative opportunities except in the mind of the inexperienced marketer.

            You could tell 1000 people about a 100% sure-fire easy way to make money and only two of them would even bother to try, let alone make a serious effort.

            This fear that someone is going to steal "your idea" and make millions while you wallow in poverty costs people way more money through inaction than any competitor could siphon away.

    That's a much sketchier neighborhood.

    Good luck with that.

    You can setup a basic contract with the developer to not use your script.

      If you're really serious about your idea, seek out advisor/experts in your market or maybe consider taking on a partner who can fill the gaps you can't fill. Giving a sketchy discription of your idea to a bunch of online user names you don't trust is not the best way to get the best answer.

      At best you'll get ...
      - Limited opinions-based on limited facts.
      - Shot in the dark opinions.
      - I succeeded at this so, you will too - assumptions.

      That's fine if that's what you're looking for. Just be aware in your specific situation, you get what you pay for, when it comes to advice.
