{"product_id":"book-2g6f","title":"THE PARTNERSHIP TRAP","description":"Most partnerships do not fail in the market. They fail at the table where the founders first agreed to build together.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Partnership Trap is a sharp, practical, and deeply revealing audiobook for founders, co-founders, investors, family business owners, board members, and anyone building an institution with another person.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTekele Samanyi examines why promising businesses break from within: unclear ownership, equal-share deadlocks, unspoken expectations, friendship mistaken for due diligence, ambition gaps, founder ego, succession avoidance, family interference, weak agreements, and governance that arrives too late.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is not a legal textbook. It is a founder survival guide. Through powerful examples, case studies, and governance lessons, the book shows how businesses that appear to fail because of money, markets, competition, or timing often collapse because the people behind them never properly governed the relationship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eListeners will learn why 50\/50 partnerships can become traps, why handshake agreements become expensive, why trust is not a substitute for structure, why success can expose hidden conflicts, and why serious founders must document decisions before conflict arrives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Partnership Trap is written for builders who want their businesses to last beyond excitement, friendship, personality, and informal promises. It is for anyone who understands that a company is not protected by ambition alone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause the most expensive handshake is the one that was never written down.","brand":"Author's Republic","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":67760343941424,"sku":"BD2g6f","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-2g6f","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
