Hello there,
I run a web business generating around 3K per month. I made everything myself, I'm the sole owner and I still have a lot of ideas to implement.
Today, after talking about my business to a friend, he tells me that he knows some other friends who are interested to build a "better business" based on mine. They try to convince me to build a larger company which would eventually makes us "richer" with new services and so on.
But I don't know them, I don't know if they have money to invest as they suggest and I don't know if it's a good idea to "share" the ownership of my business with other people. They come from some kind of management schools and tell me they know many things about companies creation. But they don't have any companies yet!
I'm self-educated, I read many books like The FastLane Millionaire of course, but the fact of "losing" the full ownership of my company makes me feel uncomfortable.
What would you do?
Did you successfuly build a business with co-owners? and what are the risks according to you?
Big thanks in advance.
Regards
