Receiving investment from angels can be a daunting, time consuming process, one that is inherently inefficient. Experienced entrepreneurs take steps to minimize these funding inefficiencies.

Experienced entrepreneurs know that they are preparing for the investors due diligence from the very beginning. They establish a process that supports the development and growth of their investable company. In order to begin that process, you must know what the investors will request and why they are requesting it.

Adequately addressing these 8 factors in your pitch to an angel group will build confidence in the minds of the investors, improving the ultimate probability of funding.

The startup with attributes that best fit a particular accelerator’s established criteria and objectives, and best fits the needs of the startup will be the one with the highest probability of being a match and one in which the accelerators will be more likely to accept the startup into the cohort.
