    ever considered partnering with someone?

    I partnered with someone for a new project unrelated to adult. New business licenses, bank accounts, domain names, merchant accounts... the whole nine yards.

    It's a good feeling having a team effort with someone that actually knows what they're doing, and lives only a couple miles away. So I can walk through his door and beat him over the head.



    So do you think having a partnership is a good thing?

    it's a good thing to get fucked

    on day you wake up, all password changed, all domaine names moved etc...

    good luck

              Not only have I considered it but I'm in some discussions about a deal at the moment.
              SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

                      I have had nothing but grief with partnerships. I have a simple rule now. Make shit, make money and fuck everyone else. I've tried partnerships with adult webmasters as well as personal friends trying to get into the business. They learned a lot from me and the only thing I learned is it isn't worth it.

                        I've had good partnerships and bad ones...the most important thing is making sure you're partner doesn't have the same weaknesses as you do or they get magnified...

                            I just partner with the same dude all the time, on different businesses. It takes too much time and energy running several businesses, each with a different person/company.

                              It depends what the partnership is like.

                                i partner with my man, he writes the code for our sites, and i handle the PR/marketing. all in all, it works out pretty well, and all the money we make stays in house.

                                  I've never found a partnership that works... the trick is finding someone that's at least as motivated as you... It doesn't feel good to be doing 90% of the work for 50% of the pay.

                                    a partnership is like a marrage... Can be really good, or it can be a living hell...

                                      Only have a partner if you really need one...during the slumps, do you really want to cut your income in half? Vise versa when your making bank. Sometimes, employees are better than partners.

                                        I agree that employees are better in most cases. But this guy has proven he's worth his weight in gold. He's brought his parents business to $30,000 a month online, and he's only getting an hourly wage at the moment. He knows how to make it happen. They already had the inventory, but they had no online presence.

                                        It would be impossible to hire someone as an employee that would make that kind of contribution.
