Nice tips!
> How are you going to split up the money? 20% to each partner? Based on who does the work (with maybe a fixed percentage going to shared expenses like marketing)? Have these conversations sooner rather than later.
Very good point. I've tried partnerships in the past but not really worked out. In my current setup I've got a freelancer soon to be permanent, a friend of mine that has its own consultancy and some trusted developers as freelance.
Structure is more loose but gives the advantage of keeping costs down and having good cashflow.
