We are still fresh out the gate. We initially were very tight for money and my partner’s dad said he would give us $50k to do work for him.Every day it seems there’s another request, another ambiguous deadline, as well as super unrealistic expectations.Now, I started a business because I wanted to be in charge of what I was generally doing, but I realize now that that comes with the reality that the people who give you money really dictate what you’re doing.I’ve been a hardass with him. Straight up telling him that no, we cannot do that in the time you expect. No, we do not have that technology. No, that’s not how this/that/and that works. Stop talking to me that way. Please do not call me over and over again throughout the day. Etc.The guy is first class idiot. And since he is unable to leave his house, he loves to throw money at us to watch us dance for the golden carrot.We have one service that we initially provided because every once in a while it would make us a good few extra bucks, but the investor has taken that service and made the business revolve around it. It takes about a week to get one of those services done. He wants us to do it 28 times. Literally.Meanwhile we’re trying to get a marketer, but the investor says he’ll take away the money if he sees us marketing before we are done with his shit.If we drop him, we are essentially broke. AND have an estranged relationship.We want nothing more than to be done with this, and we don’t have the time to expedite or optimize our process because it’s all spent coddling this fucking investor all day and responding to his questions.He won’t do anything in writing. Wont even agree to verbal clarifications of expectations. He’s a fucking child.We can’t afford to get rid of him as he’s a huge lifeline. As much as I would pay HIM to never speak to us again.How do I navigate this? see hubwealthy.com/wealthy
