Thank you for this.

Like anybody connected to the business you’ve got to actively manage, set expectations and identify how best to create value for both parties as my observation is that it’s on the Advisor too to provide “tough love” to startups who need to realise they have two ears and one mouth 😁 #alwaysfun #makelifeinteresting

I’d be open to give equity as long as the “advisor” provides tangible value (introductions, revenue, savings..)

A great guide!

Yes, 100% yes. I never give equity for these reasons. Skin in the game and bring value. Will share this on my blog soon.
