Founder’s Pocket Guide: Startup Valuation Review: A solid introduction to early stage valuation of startups and an affordable reference for students - I teach an undergraduate course in new venture finance, and this has been the most useful book for introducing students to early stage valuations. If you have heard hundreds of entrepreneurial pitches like I have, you have undoubtedly heard your share of cringe worthy statements like, "we are seeking $100,000 for a 10% stake in our company." Never mind the fact that their business exists only on the slides of their pitch and their imaginations. Now my students know how assign values to and prioritize different early stage milestones to demonstrate their knowledge of value creation in startups and how it applies to the stage of financing they are seeking. There are occasional typos and misspellings in Mr. Poland's books but they are easy reads and actionable. Review: Succinct, useful. - This puts startup valuation methods and thoughts neatly in one easy to read and understand place. If you are sucking the end of the pencil trying to figure out (a) what is in the mind of an investor, and (b) how to value an idea on a piece of paper, this book is a good, clear and concise start. And quite possibly all you need. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,093,775 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #576 in Financial Accounting (Books) #5,042 in Entrepreneurship (Books) #5,454 in Investing (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (673) | | Dimensions | 6 x 0.19 x 9 inches | | Edition | 2nd ed. | | ISBN-10 | 1938162048 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1938162046 | | Item Weight | 4.3 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 80 pages | | Publication date | August 16, 2014 | | Publisher | 1x1 Media | ## Images ![Founder’s Pocket Guide: Startup Valuation - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/719uGpUVZaL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A solid introduction to early stage valuation of startups and an affordable reference for students *by C***G on August 10, 2023* I teach an undergraduate course in new venture finance, and this has been the most useful book for introducing students to early stage valuations. If you have heard hundreds of entrepreneurial pitches like I have, you have undoubtedly heard your share of cringe worthy statements like, "we are seeking $100,000 for a 10% stake in our company." Never mind the fact that their business exists only on the slides of their pitch and their imaginations. Now my students know how assign values to and prioritize different early stage milestones to demonstrate their knowledge of value creation in startups and how it applies to the stage of financing they are seeking. There are occasional typos and misspellings in Mr. Poland's books but they are easy reads and actionable. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Succinct, useful. *by J***Y on November 16, 2021* This puts startup valuation methods and thoughts neatly in one easy to read and understand place. If you are sucking the end of the pencil trying to figure out (a) what is in the mind of an investor, and (b) how to value an idea on a piece of paper, this book is a good, clear and concise start. And quite possibly all you need. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simple, straight forward, and informative *by D***A on September 4, 2019* Quick and easy read and informative for entrepreneurs with little background in finance. Probably a bit elementary for those who professionally work in finance (VC, IB, val firm, etc.) but gives some useful insights on basic pre/post-money calculations when accounting for option pool increases. If you’re a professional I think this works best as an occasional reference book. ## Frequently Bought Together - Founder’s Pocket Guide: Startup Valuation - Founder’s Pocket Guide: Cap Tables - Founder’s Pocket Guide: Term Sheets and Preferred Shares --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/47276763-founder-s-pocket-guide-startup-valuation](https://www.desertcart.in/products/47276763-founder-s-pocket-guide-startup-valuation) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-06-08*
