Bringing Value to an Agent

Hello, BiggerPockets community. I am a new investor that recently reached out to an agent that has been investing for a few years now. Blogs, books, and podcasts taught me to find someone that is a few years ahead of me and try to bring value to them. So that's what I did. He has been selling real estate for a long time and recently started investing. He asked if I could get my license and assist him with selling to free up more time for him to find deals and focus more on investments. I got my license as quickly as I could and we are going to meet soon to start discussing the future game plan. He is going to teach me how to sell and eventually bring me in on the investment side. I will be able to work full time while assisting him and the end goal is to be investing full time. Any advice or tips on how to structure this partnership. What should we expect from each other in the beginning? He seems very trustworthy and knowledgable, so I'm not concerned with getting taken advantage of. I'm mainly looking for ways to bring the most value to him so that we can both become successful in the future. Thanks!
