At least 51% equity. Tell them you've got to have skin in the game and be able to make all the decisions!

Umm you’re gonna be the CEO but you can’t even figure out what comp to ask for?

Something tells me this startup’s gonna go far 😂

Why would the founder of the company not want to be ceo?
What are you bringing to the table?
How replaceable are you?
What is current value proposition of the startup?
Do you see any value in the offering?

Above should help you.

I’d be cautious. Founders not involved, no team readily available to help, pressure from investors - sounds like you’re going to tank, unless you’ve done something like this before and turned a profit.

If you do go for it, be prepared to leave/get let go after about a year, definitely two

Agreed with TWE. Whatever they offer cash, if you can live with it, take it... then ask for 50% more equity than they offer

For such a big role I’d pay for a salary benchmark report.

Genuinely curious, what’s the difference between “greenfield” and “brownfield” in the startup world?

Chief Entertainment Officer?’

Did you take the role OP? Curious to know how it’s going
