When you consider the advantages and disadvantages of a partnership the best thing to do is take a good look at your strengths and weaknesses and then decide which one is the better fit. The biggest advantage of a partnership is having someone else to share the monetary risks, rewards and responsibilities with. It can work in your favor if you and your partner have compatible personalities,
. similiar work ethics and even tempers. It can be lonely operating a business by yourself, but, there are some people who are better off working alone than with a partner, especially if they want to maintain total control and make all he decisions. If you are not good working alone, getting a partner would be the best thing to do. Keep in mind that your partner will be equally responsible for the everyday operation of the business and earn an equal share of the profits too. A business partnership is give and take, just like a marriage.
