Professional Agreements for Solid Business Foundations
About this Gig
How you split profits and equity is one of the most critical decisions you'll make. Avoid ambiguity and potential conflict by documenting everything in a professional agreement. I specialize in drafting custom contracts that clearly define how profits, losses, and ownership are handled.
Whether you need a simple percentage split or a complex structure with vesting schedules to incentivize long-term commitment, I will create a document that aligns with your business goals.
This Gig is perfect for:
- Business Partners defining financial terms.
- Startups allocating equity to founders.
- Companies implementing a profit-sharing plan for key employees.
Your Custom Agreement will clearly define:
- Profit Distribution Formula and Schedule
- Equity Percentages for each Partner/Member
- Vesting Schedules with Cliff (if applicable)
- Handling of Business Losses
- Terms for "Guaranteed Payments"
- Process for Buyouts or Equity Transfers
A well-drafted agreement is an investment in your company's stability and your team's morale. Order now to establish a fair and transparent financial framework!

FAQ
What is a "vesting schedule" and do I need one?
Vesting means earning equity over time. It protects the business by ensuring a partner or co-founder stays with the company for a minimum period to earn their full ownership stake. It's highly recommended for startups and new partnerships.
Can this agreement be used for employees, not just partners?
Absolutely. I can draft a profit-sharing plan specifically designed as a bonus or incentive structure for key employees, separate from an ownership/partnership agreement. Please message me to discuss this specific use case.
What information do you need to create the agreement?
You will need to provide the names of all parties, the exact percentages for profit sharing and equity, the desired vesting schedule (e.g., 4 years with a 1-year cliff), and any other specific financial arrangements you have agreed upon.
Are you an accountant or financial advisor?
No. My role is to document your agreed-upon financial structure into a professional contract. I do not provide financial advice on how you should split profits or equity; I codify the terms you have already decided on.
Why is the Premium package more expensive?
The Premium package is designed for more complex scenarios, often seen in tech startups. It involves drafting intricate clauses for tiered vesting, performance-based equity, and specific "good leaver/bad leaver" conditions, which require significantly more customization.
