Just be sure they know and love what they're selling. The rest will fall into place.

I feel like you know this is the right game plan already.

I'm in a similar situation and look forward to the HN responses.

Good luck!

I'm not sure where you're living, but I would suggest jobnob.com. There are quite a few interesting startups looking for people both long and short term for traditional or alternative compensation. That way, she can try a few different things without having to sign onto a long term committment if it isn't something she's interested in doing.

Good luck!

Oh, thank you! See? I need help. Lots of it.

You are all so helpful and chipsy, dead on. Thank you so much for your input everyone!

I'm in Seattle, but Boulder does sound interesting...

I would like to "not hate" a job in web development.

Don't get me wrong, there are some days I LOVE my job and I certainly love everyone I work with, but it's just not clicking despite my extensive efforts. It feels like a loveless marriage and I'm on my way to starring on "Snapped."
