FAQ
Why shouldn't I just use a free online loan template?
Free templates often lack state-specific compliance, proper default remedies, and clear definitions, which can make them unenforceable when you actually need them.
What is a Revenue Share Agreement?
Instead of giving up equity or paying fixed monthly interest, you agree to pay the investor a small percentage of your monthly revenue until a predetermined cap is reached.
Can these loans be secured against my startup's assets?
Yes. If requested, I can draft the agreement as a secured loan, giving the investor a lien against company assets in case of default.
Is it legally required to have a contract for a family loan?
Yes, without a formal agreement, the IRS can classify the funds as a taxable gift rather than a business loan. A formal contract protects both parties.
How do we communicate my specific needs?
Once you select a package, you will fill out a detailed questionnaire capturing all the financial metrics and specific terms you want included.
