Definitions
Compatible Startup = An idea or a project that aims for profit and profit-sharing and requires a collaborative effort.
Contributors = All participants who have contributed to the development of the startup and the achievement of profit.
Profit-Share = In this context, it refers to a profit-share from the profit generated by the startup, as a joint venture.
Tasks and Contributions = Developing a pre-agreed task assigned to a contributor, with a fixed value reflected in a profit-share.
Profit-Share for each Contribution Made = The model does not involve the transfer of shares or social parts; rather, it is a firm contract that ties the future revenues of the startup to the contributors. Each contribution has a fixed value and is accounted for as a percentage share of the profit of a department within the startup.
Break-even = The moment when the startup can cover all its monthly billed costs or salaries from its own revenues.
Recovery of Invested Effort = The moment when the contributors manage to recover their initial efforts from the startup's revenues, by earning only from their profit-share.
Team Agreement = A joint venture contract between the startup and each contributor individually, adhering to the same set of general rules and commitments, applicable to all contributors of the startup as well as the revenue distribution of the startup.
