Great point on timing. Problem with a lot of modern businesses is that they're based on intangibles, which probably don't show up on the balance sheet. I guess that's where convertibles come in. Over the years, I've found that the longer one leaves it, the more convinced one becomes that they don't need it.

Hey brother question what about when the lender pays your fee at the title company can you explain this process?
@Jonathanmillspatrick
@Jonathanmillspatrick 2 ай бұрын
Sure. You get a fee agreement executed at the beginning of the engagement (I include it in my course). The title company cuts you a check at closing or ACH transfers the payment. You deposit it and make money. It's not complicated at all. You pay can come out of loan proceeds, depending on the lender, or out of closing costs.

Hi Jonathan, I was watching Oz Konar videos I’m not sure if you are familiar with him but right off the bat I have to say you offer your course at a way cheaper price and you give out way more information on how it actually works. I’m really considering signing up to yours instead, any advice?
@Jonathanmillspatrick
@Jonathanmillspatrick 2 ай бұрын
@@raysegura6669 hi, Ray. I’ve seen Oz’s content. I’m sure his course is good. But, yes, I have deliberately set my pricing much, much lower than most other programs. Why? 1) I don’t want to break people’s wallets. But, I feel I should be compensated for the time I took to prep the course and the knowledge I’ve built up over 25+ years that I am sharing; 2) I don’t like coming off as an “online guru”, so I’m not trying to turn courses into a full-time job.; 3) the industry isn’t easy, so I priced my course to help people hopefully have an easier ROI. But, of course, it all comes down to how much work you put in. Said shorter, my decisions are always based on trying to be a fair/good person.

The only time I've seen that type of split favoring investors is after multiple rounds of funding that created that level of dilution. If this is your first round of funding the average is around 80 (founder)/20 (investor).

I am a solo founder. Agreed a "team" is required. some nuances around that. (never mind) Now I have like a really solid pool of talent who are willing to offer technical support to my present state development. They are willing to lend their name and be open about their support. Wether they will become full time team members, or directors or any formal association with my company in the future is subjective to the investment I raise. They are seriously interested in joining up. So can I consider them to be my "Board Of Advisors"? Or do i need a formal /offical kind of document to be signed with them?

Hi, great video btw! I wondered if you may be able to advise if this is right? so I recently spoke with an investor for a start up investment, I was asking for £50,000 and they stipulated they wanted 80% equity from the start and they would set "milestones" for us to buy the equity back as we paid off the investment, now I'm new to the business scene and I have no capital of my own, or anything of value to hold against the investment, so I understand this would be a strong gamble for the investor, but my business plan is strong, and I feel 80% is alot to ask for, am I right in thinking this way, or is 80% acceptable due to the circumstances of me having nothing to put against the investment and the fact I have no previous experience in running a business? Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated thanks in advance

@@ammaral-garmoshi7249 50% is entirely too high. You do not want a scenario where partners are equal. Because the reality is that no two partners will ever equally contribute resources, capital, skills, etc. I do like the idea of a revenue-sharing, instead of gifting equity. In that case, a revenue-share, I would consider giving the influencer similar rates as affiliate marketing, which is usually 10-30%. Keep in mind you will have other costs and giving away 50% of revenue would likely put you in the negative after you consider COGS, taxes, etc.
