I'm partnering with someone in a dry cleaning shop — how much of the uniform, purpose, and culture should be written down?

Legally speaking, you need a written contract with the client in this case. Terms must be clear. Advice: get a lawyer.

man, this is so hard. i kept it simple and i'm working. you can do it too.

there's an easy fix: go now, identify the problem solve it. you'll see results within a week.

man, i'm in the same boat bro. whatever you're gonna do, you'll do it eventually. I mean i guess a solution will be found.

From a management perspective: measure capacity measure demand, if there's a gap, find a partner or hire staff.

Data analysis: as demand rises, capacity often drops by 30-50%. That's your situation. You need to increase capacity.

My perspective changed after experiencing that. Trying to do this alone is the most expensive way.

If it's your first time, start small; scaling comes later.

thhanks for posting.

Same here.

Looking at it as a process, the picture changes. A partnership without a payment schedule locks up at the first split.

correct in theory, but it doesn't work that way in practice. i mean trying to do this alone is the most expensive way.

if you have questions write them; Ill answer as best I can.

My questions are cleared up thanks. I mean partnership isnt a decision to make without working together first.

Here's how it went for us. Do a small three-month project before talking stocks, so you see each other.

exactly, and not many people know this.. then if decision-making authority isnt defined it causes daily issues, not just during exits.

thats all, sorry if I went on too long.

We need to take it step by step. People defend habits, not processes. Resistance comes from there.

If you post the result here, it will help others too.

Thanks, this was very helpful. The biggest time-waster for us was not knowing who had the final say.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Noted thanks.
