You’ve got the idea for a product or service of the century. Where do you go from there? The start of a new business probably causes as much anxiety as it does excitement for the entrepreneur. Although many business partners get into business with each other with the best intentions and similar objectives, there are times where problems arise. Problems may stem from management not getting along to disgruntled employees attempting to steal customers or trade secrets.
Who is responsible for the various tasks of the company? Do all partners have an equal vote in how the company is run or how money is spent? What about the protection of the company’s intellectual property? J.
