Thinking of launching a million-dollar business with a cofounder?
In this episode of Big Hitters, Larry Weidel breaks down what makes a cofounder partnership thrive—or fail. Drawing from his own journey alongside Joe Covington, Larry shares the key traits, deal structures, and mindsets that helped fuel their explosive growth.
You’ll learn why shared vision beats shared hobbies, how to go beyond the classic 50/50 equity model, and why fire and commitment matter more than experience. This is more than a personal story—it’s a blueprint for choosing the right partner and building something great together.

What You'll Learn:

• Identify a cofounder who balances your weaknesses and amplifies your strengths
• Prioritize shared vision and personality fit over friendship
• Structure smart, flexible equity agreements—beyond the 50/50 split
• Use vesting periods and contracts to protect your business
• Spot the "fire"—why passion and persistence are more valuable than credentials
• Regularly evaluate the partnership and adapt as needed
• Recognize the signs of true cofounder chemistry
• Learn from legendary partnerships like Jobs/Wozniak and Gates/Allen

This real-world example demonstrates the transformative power of finding the right cofounder match.
