Is there the equivalent of “pre-martial counseling” for a potential cofounder?
I've watched what I could find on YC's take on this - I have a potential cofounder who :
- Has deep domain experience
- Balances the startup's roles: He sales/marketing/networking vs me as technical/designer
- Both share same profession & passion to solving this problem.
I'm fine with giving equal or near-equal equity (though I'm still looking at the 1 year cliff/4 year vesting concepts).
Mainly, what I have is a fear of commitment. I've been working on this solo for so long and that has been a mistake of mine. However, I can't make one mistake push me into making another and choose a bad co-founder.
Are there any other resources you recommend me check out? Risk redundancy and share with me something that might have slipped through the cracks.
