Single owner vs partners

Most startups are singly owned. Isn't bad, but the startups that have partners have a higher percentage of success bacause of course, two people's effort in one day cannot be done by one person in the same day.

Having a co-founder enables easier capital raise and business running as the two partners pull resources together this make it work.

Their customer range is also wider because the two people have their cycles which they would pull in when the business starts running.

There is nothing wrong with starting a business as a single founder, you just have a lot of work cut out for you to succeed.

Having a partner doesn't mean business would be easy, business never gets easier as it seems, it gets more difficult as it grows. A partner reduces the load on one person by half therefore increasing productivity for both people.

If your business is the type that doesn't necessarily require a partner like a grocery store, or mechanic shop, or fashion designing, then a single person can handle, but adding a partner would widely increase this businesses.

Pitch

When I sit down with new startup founders, most ask me about one thing: raising money. This is smart of them, because, as I've stated previously, fundraising needs to be one of the core competencies of any young company. Yet for the many high-level conversations I've enjoyed on the subject with young entrepreneurs, rarely do we delve into the kinds of DIY steps they can take to legitimately improve their chances of actually landing an investment. I want to spend some time doing just that on a subject worthy of much more discussion than it generally receives: the pitch deck. If you're a budding entrepreneur who gobbles up broader pontifications on the art of fundraising but find yourself constantly in want of "next steps" advice, this is the column you're going to want to print out and put in your pocket.
