how to fund a startup
|
Not all the people who work at VC firms are partners. Most firms also have a handful of employees called something like associates or analysts. If you get a call from a VC firm, go to their web site and check whether the person you talked to is a partner. Odds are it will be a junior person; they scour the web looking for startups their bosses could invest in. Don't be misled by this optimism. It's the partners who decide, and they view things with a colder eye.
Because VCs invest large amounts, the money comes with more restrictions. Most only come into effect if the company gets into trouble. For example, VCs generally write it into the deal that in any sale, they get their investment back first. So if the company gets sold at a low price, the founders could get nothing. Some VCs now require that in any sale they get 4x their investment back before the common stock holders get anything, but this is an abuse that should be resisted.
