Ep 13 – Employee Equity - Sharing the Pie


Listen Later

Employees are critical to business growth and success. So, shouldn’t they get a piece of the pie? 


Well…maybe. Offering employee equity is a process. You’ve got to consider the whats, whys, whos, and hows to ensure it’s the right move for your business (and your employees!). 


Kate interviews John about the finer points of two employee equity models–partnership vs participation– and they get real nerdy about profit distribution, tax ramifications, and ownership dilution.


Plus, a special guest appearance by CPA extraordinaire John Sullivan, explaining why no pie is ever free.
