Hi guys,
I'm just thinking about starting a new business for now. A side business in parallel of my slowlane job.
(e-commerce)
I have a colleague (who's also a friend) who works in the marketing departement inside my company as a designer/graphist.
I talked to him about my idea in order to have his opinion and found that very interresting and gave me some very useful advices about design and brande image. So I asked him if he was ready to work with me for the service deployment and he directly replied that he would work with me if he can get a % of sell.
I don't know how to take his proposal as I first thought I would do all the stuff on my own for this project. Including the website deployment and advertisement.
Also, I found his asking cheeky because the way I see my project is that I'll need a lot of "one shot" work (website design / logos) but then what he will do ? Because if the next step is to sell the products, this guy who get his % doing nothing shit.
I would like to get your opinion if my situation is explained clearly enough.
