Partners and mentors

Partners are particularly helpful when realize you can’t handle all aspects of your business alone. I once heard a saying which goes thus: If you want to walk fast, walk alone; if you want to walk far, walk with someone.

For a partnership to succeed, the Partners must have something to loose or gain in the business. You must also define roles on PAPER. Your partnership agreement must also define how to exit, or transfer shares etc.

A mentor is someone who inspires and shows you the way. He may be in a similar line of business or in another business. Sometimes when you are starting a business, you may need to undergo some form of training under someone who has been successful in that business; it can be a shortcut to success.
