5 Options For Startup Valuation: Exploring The Pros And Cons And How To Choose The Right Method
Determining the value of your start-up can be confusing and there is little data available. In this video, we explore five options for start-up valuation, each with their own pros and cons, to help you make an informed decision about which method to use.
The five options we cover are:
1. Valuation based on your funding ask
2. Valuation based on your revenue
3. Valuation based on the value of peers
4. Valuation based on emotions / FOMO
5. Valuation based on the cost to duplicate
We'll provide practical insights and examples to help you understand the strengths and limitations of each approach. We'll also discuss common pitfalls to avoid when determining your start-up's value, including pushing for a dangerously high valuation.
Please note that while these methods are helpful for early-stage start-ups, valuation methods are vastly different for more mature organizations. For more mature organizations, valuation methods like discounted cash flows (DCF), price-to-earnings (P/E) ratios, and precedent transactions are often used.
