⚡ 4 steps to recruit your dream business partner

If you want to steal top-tier talent from high-paying W2 roles…

You need a creative partnership structure that offers upside and security.

Here’s the 4-step framework I used to convince my co-founder to leave his $300k/year W2 to be my business partner:

1. Soft Pitch the Idea

Identify someone you trust who’s insanely talented.

Share your vision and get them on board with a test client or small project.

2. Prove the Model

Run a few test cases together to show them it’s a scalable, profitable business they can help build.

3. Identify a Salary Target

Find out the monthly income they need to confidently leave their W2 job.

This ensures their financial security as they transition.

4. Offer Rev Share

Create a rev share agreement that rewards them heavily upfront.

I offered 80% of initial profits until we hit their salary goal, taking only 20% myself.

Why it works:

• They see immediate upside without waiting for a full salary.

• You get top-tier talent without the upfront salary risk.

• Both parties build trust and confidence in the business before scaling.

This structure let me recruit elite talent and build a business that unlocks massive potential.
