No offense, but we’ve heard that angels and venture capitalists find as much, if not more, value in your team than they do in your ideas and technologies. They need to make sure everyone is compensated legally and accounted for, before investing money into your company. Investors don’t like to be surprised!
One of the toughest challenges for startups is attracting and compensating top-notch talent, while still keeping an early stage company afloat.
Every step of the way, there can be hidden pitfalls that can hinder your progress. We’ll uncover these hidden traps, mistakes, and other hiring and compensation issues such as:
  • How should you structure compensation and equity for the first employees and founders?
  • How do consultants fit into your company?
  • How do you bring in the right people, and how to incentivize them to stay, especially when you’re still low on cash?
  • How do all of these decisions affect your company later down the road, during funding rounds and/or exits?
