VC Cafe
AUGUST 11, 2022
A couple of weeks ago I was did a fireside chat with Alon Grinshpoon, founder and CEO of Echo3D , a CDN and CMS for 3D content in the cloud and a Remagine Ventures portfolio company, as part of an entrepreneurial finance MBA class in Tel Aviv University. We were discussing both sides of the table and the relationship between founders and VCs.

“Admirer from outside of the cap table” is how I approached Kieran Snyder , Cofounder of Textio. It’s also not an accident that, upon stepping back from being Textio’s CEO, I’ve built a sizable exec coaching practice working largely with early stage founders. HW: nerd processor, your weekly newsletter , is great!

Founders Institute Plain Preferred Term Sheet (by WSGR – disclaimer, I represent the Founders Institute and was involved in drafting this document). This post assumes that you have a basic understanding of Series A financing terms. Co-sale rights. Why is it called Series Seed? Dividend preference.

A first order filter is whether the founders are aiming for a scalable startup. Staring at us in the board meeting were three term-sheets from brand name VC’s and an unexpected buy-out offer from Google. The question was: what did the founders want to do? One founder quit and joined Google.) Go For Broke.

I first met the founder of Pose, Dustin Rosen , when he was a junior person with an LA-based venture capital firm called The Mail Room Fund. Within 48 hours of meeting him we had a term sheet agreeing to fund $1.6 My first two calls were to True Ventures & Founder Collective. Pose is no different. I still do.
This is going to be BIG.

However, too many people approach it by just copying what it seems like everyone else is doing without taking a hard look at what your actual goals are and really learning how to go about the job of Founder and CEO. I’m actively funding company builders in NYC —13 deals (11 led), plus three term sheets out in the last year.

We had many term sheets (it was 1999 and we had a pulse) and we were deciding which one to take. We were trying to optimize around a few criteria: price, size of round, number of syndicate partners and, of course, terms. We ended up agreeing a term sheet for $16.5 6 weeks’ later he didn’t have other term sheets.
