No offense here. But what kind of startup consultant are you that needs to come on Hacker News to ask how to start such a relatively simple business?

If you are having trouble with this question, I can tell you startups deal with similar customer acquisition and how to launch questions, but 10x harder. So I don't follow, are you a technology consultant with experience in specific hardware or software technologies or is this general business consulting you hope to sell?

I agree with hxta, I imagine these are the same questions your startups will be wanting you to ask i.e. "how do I sell to X?" "how do I make this venture profitable?" Startups have two things - equity and cash, if its cash you are looking for then you are either going to have to limit your sales to funded startups or write out a performance agreement which means you take on more risk.
