I agree, if I had the capital to keep going. :( NEED to bring in financing, and I've done all that work by myself. Need people to help grow it faster / further, and that all takes $$$ too.

If you broke even but had a partner who did not help very much, then my feeling is you should just stay on the course you have and the profit will happen. If you bring in new money and new people my feeling is you stand a chance you'll just end up with more of the same. Trying to meet too many expectations is not a good thing and ruins your focus.
