 comment Equity share in product not company
Equity is ownership. As you noted he is not offering you equity in either the business or a "product." Shares are in the business, not a product.

 comment Starting to write a business plan before becoming a company
Choosing the "approved answer after 6 hours and receiving one answer discourages other perspective and ideas from being posted. I appreciate that you found the answer you wanted so quickly. I recommend as you continue to use the site that perhaps waiting a day or two before choosing your answer may result in more community engagement.

 comment How much equity to offer to investor
I hope that you are able to close the investor. It sounds like a great opportunity. I hope that Wolf5370's comments and mine will provide you some insight as you get into the weeds of the specifics with the lawyer.

+1 I found the breakout of thinking of how much the investor would be making in this scenario to be helpful.

 comment How much equity to offer to investor
That is a fine request Chris. I appreciate your answer to the question. I personally think the answer is wrong. (see my answer and Wold5370's answers above) It think that it missed the critical issue of the confusion between ownership, ownership distribution and a loan with preferred repayment. Without more detailed explanation on why you felt it was fair --even to someone who believes in small business I did not think it was a particularly useful response either. There is not a culture or expectation on the site of explaining votes -- but I sincerely appreciate the request, so here it is! :)
