Starting a company that’s launching in June with a very successful mentor backing me. It’s in a unique health commerce space and essentially would be my own brand/ website/ company that just functions on a similar model to the mentors. I pay them a percentage to essentially franchise from their complex legal and medical agreements.

Question is: what is my title in all of this? It’s a no employee game thus far so I feel like CEO is too presumptuous. Is founder better? Owner?

Only you can answer how you identify yourself in the company. I’m the founder and owner of my company and I gave myself the title Creative Director cause that’s how I identify amongst my staff. The only time titles matter on paper is for IRS classification purposes on corporation structures. The feds needs to know who’s in charge.

Honestly the beauty of it is that you can give yourself any title that you like. I would probably go with founder...that has a nice ring to it.
