If you do not have money in the deal, you will of course be investing a great deal of time. Be prepared to discuss this with your investors or partners.

Your partners want to know your track record and history in previous or similar business deals. They want to know that your previous partners and investors realized the returns that were promised them. If you do not have a business history, you better have team that has experience.
