I am one of the founders of a small corporation and have a minority stake in it. My talents, input and ongoing contribution of effort and time have helped this company to become what it is. Now it requires more and more of my time (60-75 hours/wk) to run it and I spend more time than other owners. The company is profitable, but not to extent that it can pay market price for my time. As business changes I feel that my input grows more and more valuable while my ownership stake remains the same. How do I approach my partners with proposal to change ownership stake? Is this even appropriate? Stakes were negotiated initially, but they are no longer accurate as far as I am concerned.
Thanks in advance for your opinion.
Having been in this situation, you need to determine for yourself how much this is bothering you now and how much it will in the future. The imbalance can turn into a business threatening dilemma for all, however, right now you may be the only unhappy one. Two courses of action, one, be prepared to leave (as in start looking for another job and have one in hand) and then negotiate from a position of strength, in other words, be ready to leave. Two, give them a written proposal now with the revised deal structure and a time line to respond. If they do not respond, see plan 1. I would personally do both. If 2 doesn’t work, don’t "tip" your hand that you are pursuing another option, stay cool.
This may mean that your equity stake may not be worth much, however, it also may get you what you want.
Alright I have an assignment where I have to make a guide with rules, tips, and advice about growing a business empire such as starbucks. I chose Starbucks as an example. Can anyone help me find some steps that you would take to grow your Starbucks empire? For example: Getting employees, getting costumers, ext. Its basically just a hand book on how to create your own empire of something. If anyone would help that would be awesome. Be creative!
go to google and type in executive summary.. or business plans.. you should be able to find a lot of free stuff that will give you a picture of how to do it.. the executive summary is a complete overview of a business from start to finish.. that is the best and fastest way to get the information you want.. good luck

There are legit work frrom home "jobs" but they tend to pay less than minimum wage and work from home businesses take hard
work, dedication, and drive to succeed and, just like tradtional businesses, there’s no guarantee of success.
I live and work in Switzerland. I earned around 60,000CHF last year and had to pay about 3500 in taxes here. I’m a first year teacher, Obviously I don’t plan on going back to teach and live below the povertly line in the US. If I have to file, What form do I need to fill out? or is it easier to just denounce my citizenship?
you mean for an american citizenship? I would retain proof that you are an american citizen (such as SSN card), but you don’t have to keep filing for citizenship and you don’t need to renounce it
TRUE OR FALSE
That wouldn’t be the reason for "Decreased Tourism"..Their research is flawed.
