Frequently Asked Questions

1.         Question.  If I'm posting something I have, how do I know what percentage business that it's worth?  Answer.  Sleeping Donkey cannot advise you. It is between you and the other party who needs what you have to negotiate a mutually acceptable arrangement. 

2.         Question.  What if I can't make an agreement to negotiate a percentage for what I have?  Could I sell it?  Answer.  The pure intent of Sleeping Donkey is to trade for ownership; however, if that doesn't work out, the parties may agree to a buy/sell or even barter. 

3.         Question.  What if I'm interested in posting my skill, but I can't do a 100 percent trade?  I'm a graduate architect student and would like to trade my training for a small piece of a real estate development company, but I need at least a minimum wage.  Answer.  Just post your situation as you like.  For example, you could post that you need $7.00 per hour; however, you are willing to trade the balance of your compensation. 

 4.         Question.  If I'm trying to put together a new company, should I just post the major things that I need?  Answer.  However you like.  Keep in mind, though, that even though you may think a particular piece is too small the person that has it may be quite willing to do a trade for some small ownership. 

 5.         Question.  How long will Sleeping Donkey keep my posting?  Answer.  One year, unless you request that we remove it. 

 6.         Question.  If I'm posting for something I need, does it have to be for creating a new business?  Answer.  No, it could be for expanding an already existing business or creating a new division or subsidiary. 

 7.         Question.  How can I use this web site if I don't think I really have anything or need anything for a business?  Answer.  This may be the most exciting!  You can be a true entrepreneur and peruse the site to match haves and needs to create new businesses.
