Hi everyone,
first time poster, but a long time in business.
Just thought I would browse the newsgroup and ask your views on a business
that I am considering going into.
Basically, I have a good friend who is an excellent artist. He already has
a
business selling his art on things like greeting cards and stationary.
much
of the work is local, so he has many local areas of interest already
sketched.
he is about to leave the country, but has approached me to take on the
business for him. He is not what I would call very business savvy, and
subsequently, he gets very little work.
I believe that I have the ability to take on the business and really turn
it
around. this would mean that I would do all the advertising, setting up,
meeting clients, selling ect and he would supply the artwork (which he
already has on PC or I would have to email him a picture for him to sketch
and then email back)
So, he obviously wants a cut of the profit. The business cannot run with
out
his ability or mine. So should it be a 50/50 partner****p or should I take
the greater share as I will be doing the greater share of the running of
thebusiness, bearing in mind much of the work has already been sketched.
any views really appreciated.
regards,
Neil
