- Time zone and the hours you work
- What you are building and your stage
- How often you want to check in: daily message, weekly call, or a weekly written update
- What you need from a partner: someone to report to, someone to plan with, or someone to tell you when you are avoiding the real work
- What you are good at, so the other person gets something too
How to make a partnership last:
- Agree a fixed slot and keep it short. Fifteen minutes is plenty.
- Each person states three goals and reports on last week's three.
- Agree in advance that either of you can end it after four weeks with no hard feelings. Knowing there is an exit makes people more willing to start.
Pairs at a similar stage tend to work better than pairs far apart, because the problems are the same size.
