MenuIs there a website that lists CFOs of tech companies or digital agencies that also includes their emails?
Im trying to find a list of CFO's (emails too) working at tech companies or digital agencies where there is more than 5 employees. What is the best way to get this specific info, apart from buying a linkedin premium subscription and trolling the search.

There are 2 best business email lists provider company.
- InfoUSA
-EmailDatas [https://www.emaildatas.com/]
These customers gave consent about receiving emails and are most likely the ones that earned your trust already. Buy a targeted business email list that emphasizes clients who are receptive to your offers. This will generate more than 90% accurate business leads.
If you are looking for basic database, there are "n" number of sources. But what you may need is a customised database based on your key parameters as mentioned by you. For this, you should consider a consultant/company who can build customise list.
I can help you as I have huge database at disposal and all information are updated (email also).
Let me know if you need it.
Her are a few options that might help:
https://discoverorg.com/
www.lead411.com
If I were in your shoes (assuming you have a little bit of budget), I would pull together a list of target companies. This can be done pretty easily, as their are many public databases of companies you can scrape (eg. Inc 5000).
Then I would have a low cost freelancer from Upwork find the CFO or finance decision maker for each company. You'll pay around $3-5 per hour for this kind work, and a freelancer can usually find around 30 leads per hour. It's a very cost effective method.
Here are the steps to grabbing anyone's email off Linkedin:
1. Install Chrome browser https://www.google.com/chrome/
2. Install Email Hunter extension https://emailhunter.co/chrome
3. Head to Linkedin.com and search for CFO
4. Next to the connect button on their profile, you will see a new button with a target icon, click that.
5. Their email should appear most of the time. Sometimes you have to type in the URL of the company they are with now.
Note: You will rarely receive a positive response from anyone after a cold email. Hopefully what you are offering in return for opening your email (valuable proposition or opportunity) is enough for them to want to reply. I would begin the email in an apologetic fashion regardless;
"Hello _____,
I would first like to apologize for the cold email. I myself hate receiving them, but I found your experience to be an exact fit for _____ so I had to reach out via email...."
Enjoy :)
There are 2 information list brokers that come to mind.
https://www.infousa.com/product/business-lists/
https://www.salesgenie.com/
Both of these sites have extensive demographic data to target the information you are seeking.
Remember if you are bulk emailing these people you will be in violation of multiple countries SPAM laws. If you email each one individually and type it manually tailored to each companies CFO it will not violate those laws as you sent each one manually.

Business partner I want to bring on will invest more money than me, but will be less involved in operations, how do I split the company?
Cash money should be treated separately than sweat equity. There are practical reasons for this namely that sweat equity should always be granted in conjunction with a vesting agreement (standard in tech is 4 year but in other sectors, 3 is often the standard) but that cash money should not be subjected to vesting. Typically, if you're at the idea stage, the valuation of the actual cash going in (again for software) is anywhere between $300,000 and $1m (pre-money). If you're operating in any other type of industry, valuations would be much lower at the earliest stage. The best way to calculate sweat equity (in my experience) is to use this calculator as a guide: http://foundrs.com/. If you message me privately (via Clarity) with some more info on what the business is, I can tell you whether I would be helpful to you in a call.TW

For every success story in Silicon Valley, how many are there that fail?
It all depends on what one decides to be a definition of a "success story." For some entrepreneurs, it might be getting acqui-hired, for some -- a $10M exit, for some -- a $200M exit, and for others -- an IPO. Based on the numbers I have anecdotally heard in conversations over the last decade or so, VCs fund about 1 in 350 ventures they see, and of all of these funded ventures, only about 1 in 10 become really successful (i.e. have a big exit or a successful IPO.) So you are looking at a 1 in 3500 chance of eventual venture success among all of the companies that try to get VC funding. (To put this number in perspective, US VCs invest in about 3000-3500 companies every year.) In addition, there might be a few others (say, maybe another 1-2 in every 10 companies that get VC investments) that get "decent" exits along the way, and hence could be categorized as somewhat successful depending on, again, how one chooses to define what qualifies as a "success story." Finally, there might also be companies that may never need or get around to seeking VC funding. One can, of course, find holes in the simplifying assumptions I have made here, but it doesn't really matter if that number instead is 1 in 1000 or 1 in 10000. The basic point being made here is just that the odds are heavily stacked against new ventures being successful. But that's also one of the distinguishing characteristics of entrepreneurs -- to go ahead and try to bring their idea to life despite the heavy odds. Sources of some of the numbers: http://www.nvca.org/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ven... https://www.pwcmoneytree.com/MTP... http://paulgraham.com/future.html Here are others' calculations of the odds that lead to a similar conclusion: 1.Dear Entrepreneurs: Here's How Bad Your Odds Of Success Are http://www.businessinsider.com/startup-odds-of-success-2013-5 2.Why 99.997% Of Entrepreneurs May Want To Postpone Or Avoid VC -- Even If You Can Get It http://www.forbes.com/sites/dileeprao/2013/07/29/why-99-997-of-entrepreneurs-may-want-to-postpone-or-avoid-vc-even-if-you-can-get-it/MB

How much equity should I ask as a C-level executive in a new startup ?
As you may suspect, there really isn't a hard and fast answer. You can review averages to see that a CEO typically becomes a major shareholder in a startup, but your role and renumeration will be based on the perceived value you bring to the organization. You value someone's contribution through equity when you think that they will be able to add long-term benefits, you would prefer that they don't move company part way through the process, and to keep them from being enticed by a better salary (a reason for equity tied to a vesting arrangement). Another reason is when the company doesn't have salary money available but the potential is very strong. In this situation you should be especially diligent in your analysis because you will realize that even the best laid plans sometimes fall completely short. So to get the best mix, you have to be very real about the company's long-term growth potential, your role in achieving it, and the current liquidity necessary to run the operations. It should also be realized that equity needs to be distributed. You cannot distribute 110% and having your cap table recalculated such that your 5% turns into 1% in order to make room for the newly hired head of technology is rather demotivating for the team. Equity should be used to entice a valuable person to join, stay, and contribute. It should not be used in leu of salary that allows an employee to pay their bills. So, like a lot of questions, the answer is really, it depends. Analyzing the true picture of your long-term potential will allow you to more easily determine the correct mix.DH
