The benefits of a dynamic equity split are painfully obvious once you understand the basic concept. However, if you don’t understand the basic concept you will keep making bad mistakes with a fixed equity program.
To help people of all ages better understand how dynamic splits work, I have created a board game that takes players through the ups and downs of starting a company from start-up to sale in only a few short minutes! My original plan was to use the game in the entrepreneurship classes that I teach, but even my kids have enjoyed playing even though they are young (six and eight).
The game is available in it’s beta version for current readers of Slicing Pie. If you would like to be a beta tester of the game and provide feedback for its improvement please complete the form below.
Printing the game and cards will require access to a printer that can handle 11 x 17 printing. You will also need a die and some game pieces (I use two-bumped Legos).
