Before You Start a Business With Someone, Listen to This
from CATALYST: Las Vegas Mastermind For The Empowered Entrepreneur · host Sonia Petkewich
In this episode of the Catalyst Podcast, I’m diving into one of the most overlooked (and often avoided) parts of building a business: structure, partnerships, and decision-making. I talk about the real questions you need to ask before going into business with someone else — and why so many partnerships fall apart when expectations, roles, and agreements aren’t clearly defined from the start. If you’re thinking about starting a business, already in a partnership, or feeling stuck waiting on someone else to move forward — this episode is for you. What You’ll Hear: • The difference between solopreneurship and partnerships • Why clarity matters before you start a business with someone • The biggest mistakes people make when entering partnerships • What an operating agreement actually protects • Why “we trust each other” is not a business strategy • The importance of defining roles, responsibilities, and decision-making • How money changes relationships in business • What happens when there’s no plan for conflict or exit • Why you need to think about the end before you begin • How misalignment in values can break a business • What to do if you’re waiting on a partner to start Curious About Masterminds? click here to book a call or grab coffee Connect with us: @catalystmastermind | Youtube Produced By: Podcast & Co.
