Expires: 24 Jul 2004 08:57 PDT Question ID: 365634 |
I have an idea for a new product and I want to hire a CEO, who will lead this project. We have set 3 milestones, which he will be responsible on and evaluated on at the first stage. On each milestone he will receive more portion of the future company: Milestone #1: Signing on contract - will receive 5% Milestone #2: Fund Raising - will receive another 5% (Total 10%) Milestone #3: Establishing a company - will receive another 15% (Total 25%). What other issues should I insert to the contract? For example, what will happen if he will not be able to raise the money, or what will happen with his share if he will leave the company after the second milestone? Where can I find a sample contract? Thanks. |

Just a personal comment, I would suggest that you are going about this the wrong way. If you are serious about your product, you should create a business plan, then found a company. At that point once you have a plan and a company you can talk to a lawyer about bringing on a CEO for that company. Assuming that the person has any expierience founding and running companies, he is going to want a contract that has been reviewed by lawers and you are going to want a lawer to represent you. As an additional comment, as someone who has founded a compay with a friend without consulting a lawer, I can not stress enough how it is a huge HUGE mistake to try to create a company without having all documents reviewed by a lawer. You should probably see if there is a small business center in your area that can help you get started..... |

I totally support "vballguy-ga"'s comment. As a golden business rule, you should put in charge a person who is really determined and passionate about your business. And this should be you, as the one with the first initiative Also, staying as the main initiator of the business will be a good exit plan in case the CEO fails. I suggest you also read the following articles on the web: http://www.thecorporatelibrary.com/companies/g/gblx/ceo_gblx.htm - A CEO contract example between GLOBAL CROSSING LTD. the company's CEO, ROBERT ANNUNZIATA http://sify.com/news/internet/fullstory.php?id=13219394 - a nice and detailed interview with a CEO and about his starting of a new company in IT. http://www.fastcompany.com/resources/columnists/mg/050304.html - from the well-know Fast Company, an article entitled "The CEO of the 21st Century". |
