Startup Funding Espresso – What Makes for a Great Angel Investor

What Makes for a Great Angel Investor Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. What makes for a great angel investor is a great fit for the startup. An angel is a great fit for the startup if they meet the following criteria: They have knowledge of your industry and can explain the insights into how it works. They have run or invested in startups similar to yours, so they know the pitfalls and the challenges already. They know people in the industry they can ask to be team and board members. They know the investors in the industry and can reach out to them with their connections. They know the customers in the industry and how to approach them. They know the product landscape and can define a path to a successful product design. They know the developers in the industry and can help attract them to the startup. They know the regulators in the industry and how to work with them. They know the potential partners in the industry and can open a dialogue with them. In short, a great angel investor is one who knows your startup's industry very well and connects you with it.
