im in my late 20's, a starting entrepreneur, im a co-owner of a small advertising agency, i have one partner (also a green apple in business), we are both graphic designers, i am mostly in charged of marketing while my partner is more into production.
Our small company is only 3 months old and i can say that it is "so far, so good" we have now 2 permanent clients/milking cows, that could sustain our humble business, i can see the growth is good, and strongly believe that the future is favorable with us.
now, here came these 2 people (seeing our capabilities), one is "our-would-be-financier" and the other one is "the more experienced graphic artist". they are both 10yrs+ older than us and already had some management experience. they asked us if we would like to join their group, and start a bigger advertising agency (not really that big, but bigger compared to our humble homegrown office), they are very much willing to finance everything; personal computers, cameras, salaries of our "future employees", physical office in the big city, etc. their proposed set up would be: the 4 of us would be the board of directors with specific role and has certain share each.
now my questions are:
considering that they could finance the facilities. should my partner and i join them and take the risky opportunity of that one big leap of direction?
or should we just continue running our humble firm instead? and become bigger someday with our own little steps.
