Maybe setting aside more time together. 2) Maybe she doesn't like her role in the business and you should hire out those tasks.3) Many other possibilities My wife and I have had long talks about this ourselves.

Diving into this new adventure is exciting...Hubby n I are doing this for financial security/freedom.

Some lawyers will perform some tasks for a flat fee and then will litigate/consult based on an hour rate.I'm currently using a lawyer that also charges $250/hour but he's working on foreclosing on some tax liens for me that he charges a flat fee on.

In my thinking, I have been leaning towards creating a LLC to operate underneath so as to help shield and protect me while I undertake this REI adventure.

For instance, if there is a cap on fees chargeable for a given task (such as you cannot charge more than $10 to produce a newsletter -an actual term from one of the Uniform Acts floating around out there), make sure that your proposal does not violate that.  

Good luck in your REI adventures!
