Frequently Asked Questions

What is a VP of Sales at a startup expected to do?

At a startup (Seed through Series B), the VP of Sales is typically the first or second sales hire. They are expected to build the sales process from scratch, make initial hires, close deals personally, and establish repeatable revenue motions. It is a player-coach role.

How much equity does a VP of Sales get at a startup?

VP of Sales equity at startups typically ranges from 0.25% to 1.5% depending on stage. Seed-stage companies offer the most equity (0.5-1.5%), while Series B companies offer less (0.1-0.5%). Equity is a significant portion of total comp at early-stage companies.
