Hi, I am just finishing up my business plan, and am almost ready to start approaching investors. I was wondering what standard protocol is for structuring long-term investments in a small business. I have no experience in business or matters pertaining to this question, but my common sense dictates that money invested in the start-up phase of this business should equate to about 25% equity in the company (I.e. if someone put up 100% of the start-up, then they would own 25% of the company), I'm sure the initial answer is, "it depends" but I can give more information if it helps answer my question,
thanks!
