Backstory:2 years ago I connected with someone who reached out to me on LinkedIn who was launching a tech start up specific to the field of work I am in.Originally it was to ‘beta test’ the software and to feedback my views of the product to him and his team. The relationship was symbiotic, I got free use of his software, and in return every few months we could catch up and I would share my views and advice in regard to how it could improve and also where I felt was an ideal market fit.Anyway this evening I received a text asking if I would join the advisory board of the company.Firstly I take this as a compliment. The founder is established in this field, owns another business in the same industry and is a lecturer as well.We get along, I am in my mid-20’s, he’s approx 10 years older than me (atleast) I feel honoured to be asked and I do see other benefits to accepting the offer as well. It’s good personal PR, I like the product & the other board members will be useful connections.I guess my real question to you guys is, what is typically expected of an advisory board member?Also should I be expecting any incentives in the way of equity in the business or anything else like this?It would be great to get your advice and views on this & any recommendations in regard to to how proceed/negotiate if appropriate?Thanks 🙏🏼 see hubwealthy.com/wealthy
