I'd want to feel good about the reasons the creator wanted to sell and keep working on it. I think it would be hard to take the product where we wanted without the creator getting frustrated - if s/he had the vision and ability to execute, why did they need to be hired? That said, I'd be open to it. > how would you estimate the valuation in that case? would you offer him/her the price to purchase the side project in addition to a salary? or offer a unique compensation package that takes into account of the valuation of the side project? Hard to say because I think it depends on the situation.
