New Member Here. Is it Safe?

TheJoeZone

Hello to all  at SUN. Totally new to this. I have an idea for a business in the service area. I also think this concept has franchise potential. It`s in a concept stage right now. Nothing trademarked. I would certainly welcome input , but is it safe to discuss my ideas here?Last thing I want is to get ripped -off.. With that being said, I am very excited about this , and want to see it come to fruition.   I have been doing my homework and  and putting in the effort but could still use some direction. Would appreciate any helpful input.
                                                                                             Thanks in advance,
                                                                                                                    Joe

I am also new here Joe, so I really don`t know what to tell you.  But there are ways to tell your story without full disclosure.  Welcome to the board!

One can only gather information and ask questions and validate.  I refer to an old Russian (?) proverb:  Trust but verify!

no place is safe to freely discuss your business plan - except lawyer`s office or maybe accountant
