Need help with defining the Timelines/ Milestones for my Project

Hi Rodinhooders!!

Glad to be a part of this wonderful & enterprising community. Working with 2 start up companies in 4.5 years of my career, I am now moving ahead to start a venture of my own, GreynGreen.  

GreynGreen is basically is a website that helps any individual user to plan & budget their finances for daily activities/ special occasions. A personal tool that keeps a record of a user’s planning and budgeting tasks, accessible at any time.

I am looking for suggestions to help me define the timelines/ milestones I need to achieve to move ahead.

Also, if someone could throw light on how to decide how much equity (shares) to give a new partner?               

I look forward to all your suggestions/ criticisms/ ideas & thoughts about GreynGreen that would definitely help me make this venture a huge success..

  1. hi sunaina,

    it would really help if you added the link of your website on your post…

  2. Hi Asha,

    I’m still working on the website.. Should be ready in a few days time..

    Once done, will definitely add the link.

    Thanks.

  3. sunaina…

    about your EQUITY q – there are quite a few ASKs about equity to a new partner. will try to pull for you. 

    when you have a breather – pls search ‘equity’ and check the posts in ASK 

    meanwhile – this is an interesting one by alok – for advisors – https://www.therodinhoods.com/forum/topics/advisory-position-how-much-equity-for-how-much-time

  4. Hi Asha,

    Thanks for the link.. Was a great help 🙂

  5. Hi Sunaina,

    Check out Money Manager in icici bank’s website. May be you can get some cue from there for adding few more features.

  6. Sunaina, this is part answer to your question (on equity – that I had answered on Quora also)

    thanks for the interesting question.

    Let me dive directly into the sweet problem:

    – Lets assume that you have invested 400 hours into the project

    – Lets assume that your market value is US$ 25 per hour

    – Lets also assume that you have invested 5000 US$ cash into the project

    Therefore the ‘capital’ invested into the venture by you is = (400*25) + 5000 = US$ 15,000

    – Now lets assume that your friend puts in 500 hours in the next few months

    – His value in the market is US$ 30 per hour

    After he has put in his hours, the ‘capital’ invested by him will be US$ 15,000

    Total Capital of the Company now will = US$ 30,000

    Both of you will therefore own 50% each.

    – Lets assume that you also continue to contribute while he is involved

    – Lets assume that you add another 200 hours

    Your capital invested in round 2 will be = US$ 5000

    Total Capital created will be 15K + 15K + 5K = 35K

    Your share will be 20/35 = 57.15%
    Your friends share will be 15/35 = 42.85

    This formula can be used to add capital to the pool and reward the contributors (be it via cash, effort, employees (the amount they DO NOT take home in cash) etc.

    Tell me if this helps!!

  7. Please also mail me at alok@rodinhood.com – I will introduce you to project planners at games2win who can help you (you could cc amit@c2w.com as well for a follow up person within the office) 🙂

  8. Totally apt & to the point.. Let me work it this way

    The best part is because you answer every query from your mind and not from a machine… 🙂
