“Getting a partner in business is like getting married but without the sex.”

  1. Don’t ever go into an official partnership immediately.
  2. Write a letter of intent.
    1. Start with 30-90 days
    2. Outline expectations of each person including hours worked and money invested.

  4. After the trial run, make an agreement with an attorney.
  5. Sometimes you’ll get lucky with a great partner; other times it may take several tries to find the right fit.
