Greetings!
I am developing a disruptive platform that will revolutionize the industry that I am in. The trouble is...I'm not an expert in the skillsets needed for the development of this platform and frankly don't even know where to start.
I would like to open a dialogue with anyone interested to begin learning more about who and what I need. If anyone is interested, please let me know.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Sorry, I can't give you a recommendation 🙂 But I can give you some advice - because you yourself are inexperienced, I would recommend hiring a project manager with an extensive Upwork history, preferably Top Rated (I'm not getting in to a debate about hiring inexperienced or low-JSS freelancers here). Don't skimp on your project manager - they may seem like a cost that's not bringing you any benefit, but they will save you time, money, and stress in the long run. Develop a great relationship with your project manager and they'll help you find success with your project.

I've been told I need the following resources;

Then what you need first is an experienced project manager with a great work history in managing similar projects to yours.

Thank you Jennifer, that's where I'll start then!
Sometimes a person just needs a little direction, yours is much appreciated! If you can recommend any Project Managers, I would be happy to accpet and follow up with those persons.
