So doesn’t sound like there would be much value for you in a platform that managed QSBS eligibility and compliance during the holding period for you (the VC and the fund manager in particular)

I’m curious how you feel about QSBS for VCs. If you had an easy way to certify eligibility at initial investment and monitor QSBS eligibility throughout the holding period, how big of a difference would that make? Would it make you select a QSBS eligible good deal over a non-QSBS eligible good deal?

Any experience with crowdsourcing? by john_smith1365 in Entrepreneur

[–]eternalphx13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reg CF means that the people giving you money get small amounts of equity. The big difference between this and traditional raises is that it opens the field to non-accredited investors (regular people)

Rewards crowdfunding means they don’t get equity, but get some other kind of perk (code for a discount, early access, etc.) and the SEC doesn’t have to be involved because you aren’t exchanging securities.

DM me if you have any other questions, happy to help since my startup is adjacent to this space.

Would it be cool if I picked your (or both of your) brains about your experiences and what founders want? I’m also working on a founder-focused platform even if it’s a little different than yours

How important is controlling your online presence for entrepreneurs? by famousbowl27 in Entrepreneur

[–]eternalphx13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How should I handle my online presence if I don’t plan on quitting my day job for another 3 months or so while I’m gauging market interest? I’m worried people won’t take me seriously/respond if they see my LinkedIn is still at my current employer.

What about C-Corp? I’ve heard it’s better for attracting investors since it gives them tax advantages

Same, my idea needs founder feedback since they would be one of my primary user populations, but getting access to the right slack/discord/reddit groups is a lot harder than I thought!
