This is a first rate book-regardless if you are a seasoned venture capitalist or first time entrepreneur. Having been a venture capitalist for 22 years now, the term sheet in this book is boilerplate-but it is 1 of the 4 boilerplate term sheets every legitimate lawyer/venture capitalist uses as a term sheet-and available for the first time ever in the "public domain." In addition, what makes the book so valauble is the line by line wording and analysis for entrepreneur favorable, investor favorable and neutral. I highly recommend this book to every entrepreneur, venture capitalist, and executive of every level-it is a MUST have on your bookshelf as a timeless reference. |

The author takes standard term sheets and analyzes each key section according to what is investor favorable, company favorable, or neutral. This is a great approach, as it enables to explore the potential extremes in a term sheet section. The examples are indeed boilerplate, but it nevertheless serves as an excellent introduction to term sheets. I've been able to apply the concepts discussed in the book to the analyses of term sheets at our firm...a testament to this book's utility. Overall, an excellent value. |

This is by far the most widely used title by every venture capitalist. I would highly recommend this book to every vc, lawyer, and management team member (especially) of every company looking to obtain venture financing. You could not find better advice on negotation points, changes to wording or overall guidance on a term sheet than Wilmerding's advice in this book. Especially look at Chapter 3 where Wilmerding goes through line by line what every parapraph means on a term sheet. Also check out Wilmerding's other book, Deal Terms, or Raising VC From a Tier 1 Firm (which includes the entire text from Term Sheets & Valuations and Deal Terms). |

This book is really the industry bible for entrepreneurs and venture capitalists. The term sheet included with all the explanations is first-rate - and for once, explanined in a very efficient way. |

As an entrepreneur trying to secure venture financing, this book was a godsend. Not only did it help me better negotiate with my investors, but it made me seem like I really knew what was going on and had experience in the area. It also saved me thousands in legal fees since I was able to make suggestions on my own time (not lawyer time). My backers were quite impressed with this book themselves and all bought copies after I shared it with them when the deal closed. If you have any ties to venture capital at all, this book is worth it's weight in gold. |

This book is a quick read and addressed the outages in my understanding of how to value companies and structure rounds of funding. |
