Startup Funding Espresso -- Angel Investing Best Practices
Angel Investing Best Practices Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Angel investing is fun but difficult, especially if you want to make a return on your investment. Here are some best practices to keep in mind: Treat entrepreneurs well because word travels fast in the startup community. No matter how hard you study, the real learning is in the doing.\xa0 You can lose all your money in a deal at any time so it\u2019s best to consider the money gone once you write the check. The best learning comes from other angel investors. Valuation is a negotiation, not a formula. You need a large number of deals to review to be successful as an angel investor. It\u2019s best to diversify your investments and have enough to hit a winner.\xa0 Just as in running a startup, it\u2019s all about the startup team -- so in angel investing, it\u2019s all about the investment team.\xa0 Just as startups need expertise, so angel investors need expertise, whether it be a network, mentorship, experience, or other. Finally, invest in what you know. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.Let\u2019s go startup something today. ____________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: \xa0 Check out our other podcasts here: \xa0 For Investors check out: \xa0 For Startups check out: \xa0 For eGuides check out: \xa0 For upcoming Events, check out \xa0\xa0 For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group\xa0\xa0\xa0 Please , share, and leave a review.
