Karen Rands shares her insights and experience gained helping hundreds of investors identify the strengths and weaknesses of angel investment opportunities. So much of what is presented to investors at pitch events is all about the sizzle… the potential of an opportunity, the market size, the validated customer need, the competition, but what about the founder? Is there a way to tell if the founder is going to be the kind of leader that the can take the company to startup to scale and to exit? When making a decision about investing money into a startup, you should consider these things before making an emotional decision.
Karen covers the following aspects of an opportunity that are ‘hidden’ indicators of potential trouble for the company in the future:
1. Transparency
2. Communication
3. Organized
4. Financial Understanding
5. Ability to Raise Capital
6. Attitude
and offers solutions when these subjective elements are weaknesses that could derail the potential for the opportunity.
Karen and her team offers due diligence services for investors for initial screening as well as full due diligence review. They help entrepreneurs remove their red flags that would impact their ability to raise all of the capital they seek.
