Question
I started my own WordPress plugins shop 6 months ago, branded with my personal name. Until now, I have been selling two plugins which are quite successful in term of sales. However I feel that the magnitude of work is overwhelming especially in the areas where I lack some skill, such as marketing and design.
I am thinking of two options, that's where I need your advice.
1- Continue by myself in my shop, and hire freelancers to do the marketing and design work.
2- Find a partner who will help me in the shop and share profits with me. This option would lead me to rename the shop to a company name instead of my personal name.
3- Alternative advice to the previous two is also welcome.
Answer
You just know in your gut or through prior experiences that your decision is the right one. And without a partner around, you can solely decide to take on that new client, pursue a new market, or not go to the trade show this year without getting any attitude from a partner. When times are good, everyone wants to be your partner. When deciding whether to take on a partner, there are a lot of considerations, none of which should be taken lightly.
