The Breakup Clause

The Breakup Clause:

How to End a Business Partnership Without Losing Your Shirt, Your Sanity, or Your Friend

By Louisa Alyssa

Most business books teach you how to start a partnership. This one teaches you how to end it—without destroying everything you’ve built.

Whether you're dealing with a silent co-founder, a conflict that won’t die, or a partner who’s ready to walk but not willing to talk, The Breakup Clause gives you the practical, roadmap you need. From tough conversations and buyout templates to legal basics, IP disputes, and team management tips, this book guides you through every step of a respectful, strategic exit.

Perfect for entrepreneurs, consultants, creatives, and small business owners, this is the guide no one talks about—until it’s too late.

Because a business breakup doesn’t have to be a breakdown. It can be your smartest move yet.
