1% carry. So like 1% of the 20%, so not really enough to think too hard about.

I just hate the sales/marketing grind. Like if I probably have enough bandwidth to support 3-5 clients at any one time. I can’t source that much work though my network, so I end up with 0-2 at any given time.

If my sales/marketing game was stronger, I could probably be doing $750k/yr as one guy. Unsure if this is just the market- things definitely tightened up over the past 3-4 months.

I run a dev shop and did some work for a vc studio. They want to bring me in house to CTO a bunch of the companies they are building. Offer was much lower than expected: 1% carry & $150k salary. I’ve worked @ FAANG, and also got a startup to a successful exit. I was hoping to shut my dev shop down and join this studio, but now don’t know what to do.
