Questions

Since 100% of the business relies on having the product and I don't have the skills to create the product, should I drop the idea or find a tech cofounder? Because then I'm 100% reliant on the tech cofounder to build it and how do I know the person doesn't just build it and market it themselves?

Great question.
You should definitely not drop the idea if you think that it is worth pursuing. Just like you need the tech-founder, he needs a business founder with a dream, and the passion to make it succeed.
I suggest that following:
1. Do market validation/ POC to see if the idea has potential (get a general idea of how here: https://clarity.fm/questions/6423/how-do-you-do-market-research).
2. If it shoes potential, start looking for a tech-co-founder. There are numerous ways (try these):
www.meetup.com
www.founderdating.com
www.cofounderslab.com
http://www.founders-nation.com
www.founder2be.com
Linkedin...

3. Do a trial period + sign a founder's agreement.
Happy to help you with any of the above once/if you need.
Good luck!
