New App Team

[poisenden]

Hello everyone, I am building a team of iPhone and iPad Application Developers, Designers, and Marketers. This will allow Developers, Designers, and Marketers to come together to profit.

The idea is that we all share the profits equally, but that can be discussed later on. This is a no obligation team with no contracts, etc. I have created a Yahoo! Group available to select people only to help organize this effort.

Apply for the group here - theappdevelopers : The App Developers

Also, please PM me your Yahoo info and a summary about yourself.
Thanks! We will be creating all sorts of apps, games, and more with this group!

I can see how well that's going to go

The lack of contract is disturbing!

...and the equal share - what if one guy does a lot of work and another hardly does any? -> I don't think that would go down well.

Oh come on, don't be so cynical, he clearly said "The idea is that we all share the profits equally, but that can be discussed later on."

I'm cynical about the lack of contract.... It scares me as it should scare other people

I was being sarcastic. In that the "idea" is to share equally, but that they'll figure it all out later.

The idea of working together is commendable.
The lack of thought required to actually get it going is frightening.

It's just an idea I had. I was thinking about splitting it up like this -

Devs take 50%
Designer takes 25%
Marketer takes 25%

This would be per project. So let's say Bob doesn't like the jumping game genre project, he could decide to work on a different one instead like a location app project. This way if the team gets large enough you only get paid for what you do. No contracts mean that you can leave a project or select which ones you want to do.

Also: since design and development have hard evidence of the work done, marketers will need to show samples of their marketing work to receive credit.

Any ideas for the team? I'm open to all suggestions.
