Embarrassing products—the bane of marketing. Many marketing campaigns for embarrassing products, such as intimate care, adult diapers, condoms, or hemorrhoid cream, feature a humorous— if outdated —approach to draw in customers.

Translate that discomfort to relationships and it can feel like an awkward — and fragmented — dance on who pays which bill when (and how). Ivella , a Santa Monica-based startup, wants to build banking products for couples to take away some of these tensions.

Should a 10% reduction in staff be considered a layoff? In one sense, yes, because on a particular day, a collection of employees no longer work at a startup. But a 10% layoff shouldn’t confer messages of a financially strapped business. Consider the average annual employee attrition in a startup ranges between 13% and 25%. A 10% reduction-in-force (RIF) is less than the quantum of employees the business would have expected to lose throughout the year.
