Your startup’s most valuable assets may not be on your balance sheet.

From your intellectual property and source code to customer data, trade secrets and business processes, some of your startup’s most valuable assets may not appear as obvious line items on your financial statements.

But creating these assets is only part of the equation. Founders also need to think about who owns them, how they are protected, and what happens to them as the business grows.

This week’s Founder Tip breaks down some of the key steps founders can take to identify and protect these assets early.

What does a $5 million valuation actually mean for your ownership?

When raising funds, founders can focus on the valuation being offered without looking closely at how that figure is calculated.

The difference between a pre-money and post-money valuation can affect the percentage of the company an investor receives and how much ownership founders retain.

Slide through this week’s Founder’s FAQ as we break down the difference and what you should consider before agreeing to an investment.

We are rooting for you.🥂
