what is a term sheet?
a term sheet spells out the terms. pretty simple, right? you can include pretty much anything you'd like in a term sheet template. just keep in mind that it's a non-binding agreement that establishes a level of trust that if things look right in the diligence phase, you are intending to proceed with the purchase. a general idea of how the transaction will play out might be included. a term sheet can open the door for negotiation and hopefully an investment or purchase.
when to use a term sheet:
- you are interested in offering potential interests or assets of your business for purchase and you want to provide the general terms of such a business deal for the potential investor/purchaser to review.
