Are you thinking of starting a business right now? Transitioning into a gig economist, SMB owner or freelancer?
欄 Have you considered partnering with someone on your new venture?
While there are ➕advantages and ➖disadvantages, either way, it’s imperative you do your due diligence regardless if you link up or dive in solo.
️ I, myself, have tried to collaborate with screenwriters in the past.
Yup, I moonlight as an actor, producer and screenwriter while away from my daily role as a career consultant and resume writer.
While I find myself not doing as much with the Hollywood stuff, I still will have that want to do some creative writing.
Honestly, out of the 10+ collaborations, only 1 person meshed with me, and even that didn't amount to much when life gets in the way.
So my advice is to not force it. Try it out. If it works, expand the relationship. If it doesn't, move on to someone else. That will benefit everyone more than force.
❓Can you offer advice for people starting a business with a friend?

2. 1. Collaboration breeds creative brainstorming and a form
of checks and balances.
2. You can bounce ideas off each other, whether it's 8 AM or
midnight.
3. You always have someone who's also thinking about the
same stuff.
4. You can create multiple strategies, and offer some
opportunity for A/B testing.
5. When you can test more strategies together, you can
build up the right company together while remaining
transparent.
