Expert Answer

Understand the length and growth of your company and what that partnership means. It's easy for people to be okay with their stake in the company at the beginning, but what happens when the company takes off? How does that change the partnership? Agreements need to be made by thinking futuristically and making clauses around those timelines and those milestones that you expect for the company.

Question

I want to start making herbal tea for treating hoarseness. Would eBay be a good place to start selling, or is there another way I should get started online?

Community Answer

eBay is one option. Another would be Etsy, a marketplace for homemade crafts/creations.
