Sound Familiar?

Every founder faces these questions at some point. The problem is, getting real answers usually costs $50K+ and takes months.

Should I take this term sheet?

You got an offer, but you have no way to know if it's fair or what you might be leaving on the table.

Am I ready to sell?

You're thinking about an exit but don't know what your company is actually worth or what the process looks like.

Can I afford to buy out my co-founder?

Your partner wants out, and you need to figure out the structure before it gets messy.

What are my real options?

PE, VC, debt, bootstrap, full sale - you've heard of them all. But which ones actually make sense for you?
