Beschreibung
Founder pay is not merely personal; it is part of the operating model and should be designed with the same discipline.
Founders often treat their own pay as whatever remains after every other expense. That approach can hide weak economics, create personal strain, and distort business decisions. This book explains how to set founder compensation while protecting company runway. It covers salary, draws, distributions, taxes, benefits, cash forecasting, investor expectations, and stage-based adjustments. Readers learn how to separate personal needs from business performance, establish clear rules, and avoid both chronic underpayment and premature extraction.
