[06:40] – Jeremy shares a bad experience about when he started his business with a partner.
[09:52] – Having a trial period is key. Try the partnership first to see if it will work, and be clear with the time frame.

[18:03] – You can find out more about Jeremy at ChatFaster.com.
[18:15] – Sponsor: Billy’s question – 95% of businesses fail within the first 5 years. What is that one thing 95 out of 100 people are not understanding?
- They don’t keep generating revenue. They don’t keep bringing in customers. They can’t keep the lights on.
- Working on referrals is not the only way to monetize.
- People don’t like to advertise because they don’t know how to get ROI from their ads.
- Billy Gene will teach you on how to turn those clicks into customers for FREE. Watch his video here WatchBillysVideo.com.
