  2. How much time does your partner want to spend on the partnership?
  3. What are your partner’s key strengths?
  4. What motivates your partner?
  5. What is your partner’s financial situation?
  6. How does your partner act under pressure?
  7. Is your partner who they say they are?
  8. Is your partner willing to put the agreement in writing?
  9. How will you handle a split?
  10. Do you really want to work with this person?
