Acquiring An Angel Investor

The majority of angel investors are not uber-rich people who do not care whether they lose their money; many are simply trying to get the best return with their hard-earned savings. With that in mind, they don’t just buy an idea; they need to see a good idea that is well packaged and that is a less risky investment. Some angels will be passive investors, which may suit you, but those that bring additional skills can sometimes outweigh the investment benefits. An investor who was previously successful in your sector (been there and done it) can often bring far more in term of experience, contacts and general business acumen.

An angel investor is using their personal money and taking a risk by investing into your business. So in the short space of time you have, you need to impress on them how good your product or service is, how impressive you are, that you have a market which can generate a profit and that the risk they would be taking is minimised.
