Financial implications of exercising share options Posted: 29 Jul 2019 12:48 AM PDT In many jurisdictions when share options are exercised, the income from such an exercise is taxed at the normal income tax rate. On the other hand, gains on shares (not options) are generally taxed at the more favourable capital gains rate. One therefore might assume that it is beneficial from a taxation perspective to convert company-issued share options into shares. In this blog we analyse the total profit generated from different strategies related to when and how share options are exercised, and will demonstrate that holding on to share options for as long as possible is likely a better strategy than converting options to shares.

Posted: 28 Jul 2019 10:17 AM PDT I'm having an application developed, and i'm now turning my attention to my website. The website will serve 2 functions: 1) to educate users about the app, and 2) to sell licenses (monthly or annually). The app is being designed to compare the email address entered into the app against an online database of email addresses. If there's a match, the software works. If there is no match, the software displays a message and closes. I'm confronting this problem now, because I need to decide what kind of website features I need. Many of them offer e-commerce, but that seems to be overkill for what I want. I don't have a variety of products, I don't need newsletters, I don't need shopping carts. In short, I'm wondering if there is an easy and inexpensive way to get the basic functionality I'm looking for. I think I only need a payment gateway (e.g., Stripe, Paypal) to process recurring payments, and a way to connect that payment gateway to my hosted table, so that when a payment is made, the payer's email address is added to the table, and when a subscription is cancelled/not-renewed, the person's email address is removed. At its most basic, I suppose I could generate an email upon payment/cancellation, and then manually edit the table. Above that, I could setup a flow that would post the email address into the table (or some other automated email inbox rule). Are there any steps/products/means between those and the full-fledged ecommerce sites and plugins? This feels like it should be really simple, but I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around it. TIA. [link] [comments] |
App Dev: What questions should I ask a Dev? Posted: 29 Jul 2019 02:30 AM PDT Ok, so we don't have a mobile dev for our new content platform app idea. Luckily we have two friendly devs who would like to help us get at least the technical requirements and possible technical costs straight. We plan to meet up with them but only for a couple of hours and I would like to make the best of that time. So far I have no real idea what it reqiures to get from our high-fidelity prototype to a functioning mvp. Any ideas how we should structure such a meeting? Thanks! [link] [comments] |
Which growth hack strategy you suggest for SaaS product? Posted: 28 Jul 2019 09:13 PM PDT My SaaS product is a social media management & automation platform which allows people to manage & automate their social media accounts more easily from one plan. Some features are: auto posting & scheduling (with bulk uploads), direct Instagram stories scheduling, fully dynamic automation (auto response,RSS FEED, webhook), Social Inbox, Social listening and detailed insights & reporting of your social media accounts.
