Startup Equity Division - How to cut the founders pie
In a previous post I promised to share a spreadsheet which helps calculate startup equity division.
Its now up on google docs. http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=p31EKMUDQFEY399vFr6QQag
There are two sheets. "Cutting the Founders Pie" provides overall instructions as well as an overview of:
- the core component weights
- the relative contribution of each founder to thos compoents
- the weighted score
- the % of equity allocated based on founder contribution
To use, you'll have to click the "edit this page" on the bottom left and then export to .odt/xls, etc.
