Why You Should Work With Friends

Understanding of Strengths and Weaknesses

When working with friends you know what skills they possess, and the areas that need improvement. You may have skills, your friend lacks. Teaming up can create a power team.

Higher Level of Trust

Trust and respect are typically elements that define friendships. With this type of personal attachment, you may feel more confident in your professional relationship with your friend. You may be more inclined to rely on them, and trust that they’ll meet your expectations.

A Deeper Sense of Care and Commitment

Working with a friend that has the same goals, work ethic and commitment strengthens the success of your business. Your friends typically are more enthusiastic and take initiative to help you out and want to be part of your success.

Potential Savings

Sharing the burden of investment of time and energy with someone you trust and value is always a big win. With this, though, it’s important to be fair in your compensation expectations for your friends—as you would be with other potential candidates—hiring them may not always result in savings. 

Ability to Bond Over Your Shared Experience

Working alongside your friend might offer you a chance to deepen your bond. This is especially true if you rarely get an opportunity to see your friend due to your demanding work schedule or distance. Sharing professional experiences, like obstacles or successes, can redefine your relationship, help you learn more about one another and allow you to find more value in your friendship than otherwise.

Yes, We love to work together, but we want to work with you too!

All of the above reasons of why we work together, is why we want to work with you as well. Seeing our friends succeed and helping with the growth of businesses and companies is part of why we do this! We are creative, but we really value our relationships too.
