New partners are asking for a vesting schedule, how does this system work?

I have experience with this, gotta say: the vesting schedule topic depends on a few factors. Gather the data first, don't make emotional decisions.
Another perspective: maybe the real issue with the vesting schedule is something else. Think about it...
But what's the real risk here? Will the business shut down if this choice is wrong? I'm saying this so you're super careful.

Another perspective: maybe the core issue with the progress payment schedule is something else. Think about it like this...
Correction: I misremembered the figure, it was a bit lower.
Bro let's be honest, most business owners make the wrong call in these situations. anyway watch out, hasty decisions often end in regret.

I agree, and I'd like to emphasize that. A partnership without a payment schedule locks up at the first split.
I'm also curious if anyone does it differently.

I feel the same way. Trying to do this alone is the most expensive way.
If you get three different answers on a topic, the question was asked wrong. Hope this helps.

Dont miss this: When making decisions, write down the worst-case scenario too, not just the best.
Thats all sorry if I went on too long.
Let me clarify the technical side. honestly when making decisions write down the worst-case scenario too not just the best.
The most overlooked point about vesting schedule is this: The only thing separating friendship from partnership is a written contract.
Just leaving this note it might be useful.

Id say dont rush. When listing, put proof that the product actually works at the very top.
The real issue isnt the number, but what its based on. anyway hope this helps.
We need to make a distinction here. The harder it is to reverse a decision, the slower you should make it.
If you don't write this down from the start, it leads to arguments later. Hope this helps.

We need to take it step by step. If IP assignment to the company isn't written from the start, it can't be collected later.
Partnership isn't a decision to make without working together first. If you have questions, write them; I'll answer as best I can.
There's a common mistake people make when doing this. Any unwritten clause becomes a point of disagreement later, as both sides remember it differently.
