Each of us is individual - perhaps, this is the main advantage and at the same time the problem when doing business. The difference in the image of thinking, motivation, actions - all this can give many useful for the development of the company's ideas, but at the same time become a stumbling block between close people, which will certainly lead to disagreements. How to be if you decide to divide responsibilities with a relative or friend?
Decide with roles
The first, where to start, - clearly define the responsibilities of each of you. Do not hesitate to directly say that you wish to share work in an equal share to fairly allocate profits in the future. If at the initial stage "Haltur" one of the team members can pass by the eye, then during periods of passions, for example, sales decides or the end of the year, all resentments will spill on a person with a huge irrepressive stream. Do not bring nerves to the limit, because it is better to prevent the problem than to "rake" its consequences. Do not install the same posts with a friend or relative, because it is quite clear that two people in a stable company cannot fulfill the same work - they simply do not have enough material and temporary resources. In English, the word "director" means somewhat different than we have, is the position of the main in the direction, and not by the company. In our opinion, it is worth choosing this position, but in the key that one of you, for example, will be a "director of sales", and the other "Director for Advertising". Then it will not be offensive to anyone that his position is below a friend-colleague, and the responsibilities will be competently designated in the title of position.

Responsibly treat documents
Many neglect by this stage, making up all contracts relating to the material side of the question, after the sleeves. The main argument: I trust this man, he will never betray me. Remember that in the real life of mature human development of the wording "NEVER" does not exist - anything can happen. In business, constraints and prejudices should be moved to the distant plan - you did not shoot a toy with a colleague, but chose an adequate approach to work. First of all, it is documented by the right to own the company, indicating who how many contributed to the authorized capital of the company is important because in the case of "failure", the remains of property or debt will be distributed on the basis of this document. If you have an initial capital, and the future colleague with an empty wallet, then you should not beat yourself in the chest and agree to act as a guarantor on the loan. This person has a family that is more responsible for his property than you. If a person reacts inadequate to your refusal, then think about whether you need a hysterical person in the team?
Pay attention to the signals
Continuing the topic of signals testifying to the premature failure of a common cause, such features such as incontinence, nonpunctuality, non-performance promises data, forgetfulness, illiteracy and low level of erudition should be mentioned. Of course, we are talking about the unwanted qualities of the company's head. If you decide to open a joint strap or a round-the-clock store of products, the readiness and brilliant knowledge of the Russian language will not play a decisive role in business profitability. However, when creating a major startup, especially related to technologies, where it will be necessary to negotiate a lot to negotiate with people and "knock out" grants, a person with such qualities can reduce all the works of the team. Also be careful as it belongs to you and other employees. Between you, like loved ones, permissible friendly communication, but in humans it should be exclusively business - without subskings, discussing common acquaintances and phrases like "yes okay you". Remember: Respect of subordinates formed from the very beginning. You should treat them, first of all, as employees, not friends - do not allow Panibrate relations between management and subordinates. People feel quickly to whom they can sit on the neck, so they begin to heal and violate their working responsibilities. The closer you will be to the subordinate, the more difficult it will be fired to you, and the main law of the prosperous company is a strong team.

Talk without emotions
Be competent colleagues - do not go to the level of insults and do not know the person that "he always does" or "you also knew that it would work out." Try to make all the solutions with the "cold" head - it is better to take a pause in a conversation, walk in the fresh air or a cup of coffee, than to say more superfluous. Remember that, having decided to take the common cause, you become two bowls of scales: one will rise or empty - the other drops. You must respond to work and not to sum up a partner who is no less trying to achieve the result.
Think how to distribute profits
Yes, at the initial stage it is not known that a firm in the future is waiting, but you must understand that you should always be ready. Agree, for which the first time will send revenue. If your colleague plans to share it and take it for personal needs, and you want to return it to the turnover for the development of the company, then disagreements cannot be avoided. We advise you to make a joint decision on the issue - reasonably first work in zero, giving almost everything to development - it will turn out to increase the company's resources and scale it faster.

If you are frank each other and honest towards yourself and others, then the likelihood is that things will go uphill. Working relationships with loved ones - the topic is taking, because few years later it is possible to preserve the past and interest in each other, but who said it is impossible? Work on yourself, your relationship and community, then all the problems will be able to solve at the initial stage. Good luck!
