I've gleaned from BP forums deals ranging from 50/50 no preferred, to 8% preferred with 70/30 going to the investor.

You could even offer to take them out to lunch or dinner on your dime.Even if you do not want to use them you could glean valuable info that can help you along the process yourself.
