Great question, Nathan! A few resources I’ve found really helpful when structuring partnerships: 📚 The Founder’s Dilemma – already mentioned, but worth repeating. Clear breakdowns of equity splits, roles, and long-term alignment issues. 📚 Venture Deals – more geared toward startups, but the chapters on ownership, board rights, and investor dynamics are gold for any partnership. 📚 Slicing Pie – super practical for figuring out how to split equity fairly based on each person’s real-time contribution. 🔧 Tools & Templates – Cooley GO and Orrick’s Startup Toolkit have free docs and frameworks – LegalZoom and Clerky if you're looking for plug-and-play agreement setups Happy to DM or share more if you're building something around acquisition or investment structures too!

Understand the core value you bring and motivation of your partner. Structure based on incentive and mutual growth! Start small and build with the end in mind! After my acquisition, I’ve been laser focused on developing strategic alliances and partnerships to organically grow my business.
