Step 1: Signup as a Business

After signing up as a business, you will be required to add business.
Once created, the business will appear on your personal dashboard for easy access and management.

Step 2: Business Settings & Security PIN

From your dashboard, click the Settings button on your business card. You will be prompted to create a 4-digit Business PIN.

This PIN is essential for security. You will need it whenever you:

• Access or update your business setup
• Transact with Business Briefcase

Step 3: Complete Your Business Setup

In the business settings, you can update your profile information, upload a brand logo, and provide essential details about your venture. A few key fields are required to make your business investment-ready:

1. Ticker Symbol – A short symbol representing your company.
   • For verified businesses, ticker symbols are assigned directly.
   • For unverified businesses, ticker symbols are auto-generated.
2. Assumed Valuation – The estimated value of your venture. This is set by you as the founder and forms the foundation for your IPO terms.
3. Public Equity (%) – The percentage of your company you intend to make available to the public.
4. Listing Price – This is derived from your Assumed Valuation and the total Authorized IPOs assigned to your business.

Step 4: Understanding Authorized IPOs

Each new business on IPOGRAM is initially granted 1,000,000 IPOs (shares) by default. When you set your Public Equity, the system automatically creates additional IPOs proportional to the equity percentage you have offered.

The total of your default IPOs plus any newly generated IPOs equals your Authorized IPOs. These shares define your business’s structure and how much ownership can be made public.
