    Accounting Software / Cloud

    This is open to a lot of personal opinion, but any advice suggesting what setup to go for would be useful. Reviewing online systems it seems to come down to QuickBooks V Sage - sometimes Xero is also mentioned. These looks OK but are they worth all the cost, seems a lot when they can keep...

    Is an e-mail (6 years ago) an agreement?

    Thanks again for the comments. I think I confused it saying 'they might claim an entitlement to that' - I understand I own those things and they have no entitlement to them directly, but they are a part of the idea still. If I make a Ltd company and make some profit, do they have a right to a...

    Is an e-mail (6 years ago) an agreement?

    Me - personally Me - personally Me - personally Me - personally The 'agreement' says they have 20% of the company though, so that would include 20% of the above would it not - if they are used for the company.

    Is an e-mail (6 years ago) an agreement?

    'You do not ask them to take part, in any way; get someone else. Lots of programmers out there.' 'As they failed to work with you before why would you even consider working with them now, Keep your 100% shares and if needed just hire people or companies to do the work required.' I don’t want...

    Is an e-mail (6 years ago) an agreement?

    Thanks for all the comments. Seems to be 2 options to cover any issues: 1) I ask them now, before I fully revisit, for 20% of all costs to date. If they refuse to pay, they are clearly leaving the agreement. 2) I use a new name and re-visit under a different identity. Problem with this that...

    Is an e-mail (6 years ago) an agreement?

    Hi, I have a query that I could do with some help/advice on please. Back in 2013, I asked 2 friends to write some code for an idea and in exchange they could have 20% (total) of the business. No business is registered and all communications were through e-mail only. They couldn’t write the...

    Business Offer - 30% for nothing?

    The supplier is UK based company but we are effectively selling the product/service - acting as the middle man and taking an administration fee. My partner is oversees, knows the business well and needs a UK 'face' and has offered me the proposal. I agree they might be open to a better % but...

    Business Offer - 30% for nothing?

    Many thanks for the reply. Yes, on reflection my OP was a bit too vague! What is the product/service? Affectively the product/service is sales. We sell and take an admin fee on sales, nothing new or exciting. The system/database they have is very good at managing this process. I have seen it...

    Business Offer - 30% for nothing?

    Hi all, Someone I have worked with before was commissioned to develop a system for another client. The system worked well and they have now approached me as a UK contact (which they need) to see if I would like to become a partner and use the system independently. The deal they have offered me...

    Partner / Agreement Turned Sour

    Thanks for the reply ethical pr. I probably haven't explained it fully, the company isn't set up at all. I developed an idea into a product with the 'help' of two friends. We have a verbal agreement, nothing else. Now the product is ready to launch I will need to register the company etc...

    Partner / Agreement Turned Sour

    Hi, I have a query that I could do with some help/advice on please. I approached two friends (Mr A (Alright) and Mr B (Bad)) with a business idea some time back and the idea was that I would pay them for their support as they both had skills that I required. Rather than accept payment they...
