Hey - by 'pre VC investment' I assume you mean raising a first round of tens or low hundreds of thousands - basically enough to hack out the first version of the product. In this case, yes, you should generate your own term sheet, and make it very reasonable (we give you some guidelines in the article) so as not to deter investors. One reason for this is that due to your stage and the amount you are raising, you are unlikely to have a 'lead' investor in the classical sense. Also - you should definitely raise this round as a convertible note. It is cheaper, faster, and much easier to 'raise as you go'.
Hey - made this post to explain the term sheet. Would love any feedback.
nice
Awesome job Zach!!
My co-author and I wrote a primer on how to get funded on AngelList. It's vetted by (and contains contributions from) AngelList management.
I would love to hear any comments or feedback.
Awesome
hey - we changed the name of the book. Nobody saw the post the first time around so i wanted to resubmit.
Ha. We are experimenting with different covers right now. Thank you for the feedback.
My co-author Seth and I wrote a book on how to raise money. Happy to answer any questions.
This is on point. Bjoern's Compass will hopefully allow us to set more market-driven pricing models.
Congrats guys this is awesome. Huge market opportunity. It is ridiculous how hard the job search still remains.
Investment banking is the same way. 100 hour+ weeks for weeks on end.
this is dope. Shutterstock is bomb
Wow this could be huge
we are f*d
Stay strong dude. I'm sure you'll make it through and figure it out. Many have made it back from far worse situations. You can do it.
Steli is the sales guru
This is huge
This looks so much better
This is super valuable. $40K. Not much in SF!
This is helpful, thank you.
Seems a little much....
