Angel Investors with venture capital – wealth help now from people in the know
Angel investors with venture capital available to help start up businesses or the expansion of established businesses ready for attainment at the next level will be getting targeted “wealth help now” from people who have been there, done that and got several T shirts in their closet still waiting to be worn. Different from venture capitalists who typically manage a fund of pooled money from private investors, angels are usually high net worth affluent individuals who provide capital for a business start-up, usually in exchange for convertible debt or ownership equity.
To add weight to the argument for approaching angel investment individuals or networks is the recent Harvard report by William R. Kerr, Josh Lerner, and Antoinette Schoar. Documented evidence was produced and tabled which indicated that companies and businesses which were and are angel funded are far less likely to fail than companies which rely on other forms of initial financing and much more inclined towards success.
Increasingly angels are organizing themselves into groups and/or networks in order to share research and pool their investment capital in potential businesses armed with a service and/or product and a sound business plan ready to tackle the difficulties which lie ahead for any new or expanding business.
Lending from banks and the availability of resources has stifled many a good idea, and in more recent times given the vagaries of the economy and the legacy of the real estate and banking crash of 2008/2009, banks and loan officers have become less willing to lend, preferring to build up the money on deposit. Loan officers and local bank managers lost any autonomy they had several years ago, and any decision on lending is based on how many “yes” or “no” boxes are ticked on their questionnaire.
They no longer have their finger on the pulse of business in their local area, and any decision to lend would invariably now be based on the fact a business DOESN’T need to borrow or need extra funding. Small start up businesses and businesses ripe for expansion into any market are the future of an economy, much like small seeds are the start of a great forest in the future.
