As a person who falls into the coder/builder role - I've found I've had better luck getting folks on board with projects if I toss together a REAL basic MVP of what I want to build before I start looking for other folks to jump into different roles.
Yeah for sure, a basic pitch or prototype that's solid definitely gets people interested.
I think I'd be trying to aim my pitch at people who are already a PM or run a relevant business in the sector. You know? I find it pretty easy to get other coders in on ideas, but I'm not sure that's enough.
If I may ask - have you had much success with getting people involved in side-projects? If so, how did they go?

Sounds like you're veering more into startup than side project then.
