The best way to build an MVP is to distill the solution to the smaller unit of value to deliver something to a customer. Start small, time box it and focus on solving the problem at it's core even if it's ghetto (I call the best MVP's ghetto but useful). Here's an image that represents my think...
First of all, focus on the product, rather than the technology. When it comes to product, you need to identify a real customer pain or problem that is being unaddressed. The best source of inspiration are problems that you face for which you cannot find a solution. To evaluate if this is a real...
Most advisors get between .25% to 1%. 1% assumed they are VERY important and will be active in either recruiting or raising capital (2 of the most important areas). Advisors don't do it for the equity - at least they shouldn't - what they want more than anything is recognition from you publicly...

Sorry to answer a question with a question, but why do you want to strengthen the relationship, rather than going your separate ways? A business partnership is similar to a marriage or other very intimate relationship. If you can't have open and honest communication, the relationship will suffer...
You have some useful elements available here for positioning. First thing to understand is you will not "put out your shingle and they will come." There are many tax accountants and most business owners couldn't tell a good one from a bad one. So you must Stand Out. You must also develop a sour...
Without any more details only very general advice can be offered. But that general advice would be to build an 'MVP' (minimal viable product) and start testing it. Test it with yourself, then friends, then family, then strangers, then more strangers etc. You'll be making changes to it along the ...
It depends on what type of online business you want to run. For selling online (physical or digital products), you need to figure out your audience first, and then find or create products, that will sell. Also consider how you will get paid - living in Egypt may put restrictions on money transf...
