    Gail -

    The best way I know is to go to some face-to-face entrepreneur events in your town. You will find folks who are looking for future projects and folks who can give you feedback on your current project.

    It depends on your financial resources - from most expensive to least expensive.
    1. Build it from scratch - find suitable technical people
    2. White label - find a suitable service and check that they can deliver what you want.
    3. Joint Venture - pitch your idea to a technical partner who has the skills you don't

    Hi Gail. At iPledg (http://ipledg.com/) we have come up with a new model that gives those that want to start a platform a start at an affordable price, and with backing and expertise (well, that's if you define expertise as the lessons and warnings that come from people who have already made mistakes that you wont have to make). Please have a look at our site, and feel free to contact us through our site if you want more info
