What I don’t love about @open_desk is they’re raising equity capital and have an exit strategy :(
@mhsutton We can also follow an alternative approach and raise _revenue-based_ investment instead of equity-based.

@aral Debt vs equity? Or change the name. The key is income sharing implies revenue. Until then?@indy_johar@mhsutton -
@John_Corey Not debt. Revenue. No exit strategies. Interest of investor is not to sell but to see sustainable growth +@indy_johar@mhsutton -
@aral@john_corey@indy_johar +100. Debt or equity is not the question as much as partnership and not simply way to cash out is. -
@mhsutton Ok. Partnership has to have share goals and an exit strategy. Agreed?@aral@indy_johar -
@John_Corey The valid exit strategies I see are you sell your share of revenue or your children inherit it :) +@mhsutton@indy_johar -
@aral Share of future revenue is equity in a venture. Structure already works vs reinvent it. Quality income matters.@mhsutton@indy_johar -
@john_corey@aral@indy_johar we agree on the idea. Difference is when equity is exercised, via revenue (dividends) or at sale. No sale here

@aral yes, I like the revenue based approach and it could work well with a seed fund purely for open ideas, but not tied to closed corps,Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
