Lets say you fully fund this and get your 90+ towers or whatever you are shooting for. you will be making isk how? By providing the fueling? But you also mention that if the investor wants to handle all of the logistics they can. If they choose to have 100% control, how do you make any isk?
Also, I'm assuming since these are in "deep 0.0" doing reactions that the towers all need to be large towers. So let me throw out some math real quick.
Large POS fuel for 1 month = 160,000 m3 * 90 towers = 14,400,000 m3 of fuel. So 14.4 million m3 of fuel every month that needs to be moved to these towers located in deep 0.0 space. Lets pretend that your t2 freighter can hold 350k m3. You are looking at around 50 roundtrip trips to move just the fuel. I can also assume that since it is deep 0.0 space that you can't jump the fuel directly from empire to the POS systems which means there is atleast 1 midway system. This would effectively double the number of trips bringing the number to 100+ roundtrip trips just to move the fuel. I don't have any of the numbers available to figure how many trips would be required to move the reactions and such but I can only assume it to be an even more crazy figure than the pos fuel based on reactions weight and such.
All of that rambling brings me to my next point. Are you doing this all on your own or do you have corp mates that are going to give up every other aspect of eve to make these trips full time? Do you have 50 alts you can stick in each corp to manage each pos if everyone that invests wants you to do all the work? If you do have help, are they trustworthy since they will have access to lots of assets? What happens when you get burnt out trying to handle the logistics of this? Will there be any sort of protection offered by the alliance renting out the space(probably not)?
Lastly, I just read over the op again and noticed that you list the pos fuel service as required. Does this mean investors HAVE to use you to fuel their POS's? If so, how are you going to fuel each pos if they don't want to let an alt of yours in thir corp? Does this mean you are going to be available 23 hours a day to meet them at the pos to move fuel and such in/out OR does this mean they are going to have to make themselves available during your schedule to be able to receive their fuel/materials?
Sorry for so many questions there but I got on a roll.
