Startup Funding Espresso – The Challenge of Angel Investing

The Challenge of Angel Investing Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Angel investing can be a rewarding experience, providing not only investment returns but also making the world a better place. It also comes with challenges. Here is the challenge of angel investing: There's a small number of investable startups. There's a large number of startups to comb through to find the fundable ones. There's a substantial number of other investors chasing startups to invest in. This creates a competitive environment for the best deals. Most startups genuinely want to succeed, although there are a few that are outright scams. The process of sorting through the available startups takes time and energy. One can't always tell a good one from a bad one from a general review. It takes a deep dive to figure out which startups have the potential to succeed and which ones are destined to fail. Failure comes from pursuing a market that is too small or building a business that is not scalable, among other reasons. Consider how to mitigate this challenge in your angel investing. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _______________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: http://investorconnect.org Check out our other podcasts here: https://investorconnect.org/ For Investors check out: https://tencapital.group/investor-landing/ For Startups check out: https://tencapital.group/company-landing/ For eGuides check out: https://tencapital.group/education/ For upcoming Events, check out https://tencapital.group/events/ For Feedback please contact [email protected] Please follow, share, and leave a review.
