I need advice on getting my first angel checks

2 pointsby DylanWainanno scorso3 comments

Hi Everyone! I can seriously use your advice in getting in front of investors. I have created a new startup that has grown 940% in the past few months. We have made over 2k with 120+ customers. Plus we have 2 ex uber folk helping out.

I know we are super fundable but I have no connections and am not sure how many bespoke cold emails I can send. I would love to hear your thoughts on how I can meet more investors. (I know warm intro's are best but I dont know anyone who knows anyone).

I also tried to do friends and family and they simply do not have enough money, I send 200+ cold emails, and now I am going to startup events to meet them but I simply have not been able to meet more than 4 investors. I also live in LA if that helps

Would that be a total revenue of $2k...? Or did you omit the "monthly" part? Advice will differ depending on this.

Also, what's your purpose of seeking outside investment? Roughly what scale are you aiming for (both for the business itself and this investment round)? What are the things you look for in an investor?

Looking at the past post, they help people that wants to move, so it looks like a single time payment.

@OP: What is the price? $10 per client?

I can always send anyone my deck too if it helps!
