I’m in my early 20s and developing a product (in the motorcycle industry) which I’m hoping will be ready to go to market Jan 2024, however, as a college student, I am… well… broke 😅 and ruining out of money to even fully launch this idea. I could get a few thousand dollar loan from my mom but I really don’t want to take her money because 1. If I fail at this thing, it will eat me alive and 2. She’s not as business savvy so I would get the money and nothing else. I guess I’m looking for someone who would be able to guide me and also put up capital. I know this one guy in particular who owns a motorcycle dealership. I had one conversation with him and he would be an ideal partner for this venture, how, if at all, should I approach this?
