Yeah, we agreed to membership vesting over a 2 year period and I can see that the template I have is not set up that way. Checking with the legal student who helped us earlier is a good idea. I reached out to a couple of legal contacts as well, but I wanted to see if someone already had an agreement that could be easily modified.</description></item><item><title>Forum Post: RE: Advisor agreement</title><link>https://vlab.virginia.edu/incubator2018/2018ventures/f/asks/252/advisor-agreement/598</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2018 19:43:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">ae514cbc-3b7b-4593-9af5-883c9a5da328:4cf08feb-cae7-4282-b85c-57206674bf27</guid><dc:creator>Alexander Singh</dc:creator><description>If adding in an advisor to your LLC, it may be a good idea to consult with an attorney just to make sure you&amp;#39;re following all the rules and saving yourself from unnecessary taxes. I&amp;#39;d start by reaching out to the legal student who helped you before the i.Lab and seeing whether they or their advisor in the UVA Law School has a template. It is my understanding after discussing something similar with our legal advisor that because you are structured as an LLC, you have to add in your advisor with vesting membership rather than simply &amp;quot;equity&amp;quot; into your operating agreement.</description></item><item><title>Forum Post: Advisor agreement</title><link>https://vlab.virginia.edu/incubator2018/2018ventures/f/asks/252/advisor-agreement</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2018 19:10:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">ae514cbc-3b7b-4593-9af5-883c9a5da328:65f8a4ca-7d83-41cd-9616-bdc49fd1e89a</guid><dc:creator>Aaron Reedy</dc:creator><description>Does anyone have an Advisor Agreement that compensates an advisor with equity? I&amp;#39;m looking specifically for one that works for an LLC and has some type of vesting schedule written in. I found this online: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwNfGKCf8sfbQ19wWk9KWWVSc0U/view It seems like a good start, but I&amp;#39;m not sure it applies to LLCs. I&amp;#39;m trying to not pay an attorney or find a template that could be very quickly (cheaply) modified by an attorney.

One of the speakers this summer(I believe his name was James) came and gave part 2 of the Brand/Marketing workshop (part 1 was Lyons Brown). He presented some slides that went over how to formulate your brand ethos and the different aspects/dimensions. He had a framework that could help document/organize brand elements so you can share it with others who might join your team. Does anyone remember this and have these slides to share with me? Or any other helpful resources or examples you have seen or done yourself?
