If you consider yourself an entrepreneur, you'll want to check it out...

Okay, unfortunately what's happened is that the file I had linked to has disappeared, and is no longer online...

Here's where you can find more information...

First, a post I wrote about this a few years ago...

http://www.sowpub.com/forum/showthread.php?p=28430

A short article about it, from Harvard Business Review (HBR)...

https://www.alumni.hbs.edu/stories/P....aspx?num=2602

HBR will sell you the case study for $8.95, which has all the details...

https://hbr.org/product/r-r/an/386019-PDF-ENG

Bob Reiss also writes all about it in his book, "Low Risk High Reward" (which you can find at your favorite online bookseller)...

Sorry the link isn't there any more... But it's worth knowing about, if you want to know how to create value while putting up little or no money...

Best wishes,

Dien

Hey, great idea!

Worth reading if you're interested in knowing how to do deals, where you bring a number of players together, to make things happen... (Where, instead of paying everyone up front, instead each player gets a piece of the pie. It also means you take less risk, because they're actually sharing in the risk...)

That's how Bob Reiss created the "TV Guide" board game...

Here's one of the links, via archive.org ...

https://web.archive.org/web/20060902...f/bobreiss.pdf

If you have trouble, go to www.archive.org and search for http://www.hbs.edu/entrepreneurs/pdf/bobreiss.pdf ...

Thanks...

Best wishes,

Dien
