Hi all,

    Started a marketing agency with my good mate about 7-8 months ago, fully built the business out together with a somewhat equal amount of graft. I am more technical with plenty experience so naturally, I had to pick slack (which is fine).

    We’re 50/50 founders, the agreement was, we set up the business together then when we’re operating, I do the marketing & service delivery, he does all the sales.

    His call time the past few weeks has been 10-30 minutes daily!! Most of these dials probably didn’t even pick up.

    I work a 9-5 (he doesn’t have a job atm) then come home and smash out service delivery until 11pm just to do the same thing the next day.

    His lazy efforts aren’t good or respectful to me and my time as I am now having to chase him a bit to make calls.

    No sales = no money!

    Anyone have any tips on what I can do? Had a chat with him this week, he asked I stop micromanaging and trust him (fair), but he has barely improved.

    Don’t think he quite understands the graft needed.

    Thank you all!

    Lazy co founder…

    1. This is where a partnership agreement would have done great. At this point bro is sand bagging. Meetings should be going over the drop in calls and leads.
