GuestApril 21, 2026 at 11:12 pmThis is not the correct approach. You own the company 50/50 and split company profits 50/50. But there’s plenty that happens on the P&L before profits. Find a way to compensate fairly and list it as EXPENSES. She needs to be paid for her work (by the hour or any other measurable unit), as well as you do (by lead, for example).
Simplifying: Revenue – expenses (each gets their own compensation based on amount of work being done) = profit (split 50/50 or reinvest in the company)
