in Why do we charge $250? on The Angelsoft Blog
I agree and have put in approximately 450,000 of my own hard-earned equity as a result of my previous success story. Does this get an angel interested in giving me a call? Brian Javeline (just google my name).

maxwell My name is maxwell chakaringa and my email is compguidezim@yahoo.com i am looking for a partner to enter into project which is very profitable in my country right now. The project is to produce pavers and cement bricks. The whole project needs only USD 25 000 to kick start and the returns are not believable. The details can be provide upon request. This size of money is not much to what you have . In Africa thus a lot of money and the project are always lucrative. Please communicate for more details

in 5 Quick Tips on Pitching Angel Investors and Venture Capitalists on Instigator Blog
Your article is perfect, but I think you should have started with this in your opening sentences ... "You want them looking at you, making eye contact, and really getting a feel for your confidence and passion." This was the ending point of your article and it can not be overstated enough. Angel investors are buying into the founders vision-- and confidence, passion along with a clear & methodical presentation. I run MyOnlineToolbox that has raised money (and still is raising) from 5 early stage angels from California, to New Jersey to Britain. I even won a MIT Best Business Idea Presentation Award (without having the best business, just the best PRESENTATION). Ben's overview is excellent. I challenge him to now put this on a YouTube video to see how fast he can project this article within a short presentation just as if he was pitching investors.

Benjamin Yoskovitz Brian - I don't look good on camera *grin* It sounds like it would be fun to put this sort of article on YouTube, although I'd want to take the time to do it right. Maybe, some day...

Thanks for stopping by and commenting, hope you'll stick around.
