business - What is this angel investor service about?
A short explanation of the test with the China Herald Angel investor service that started today, so I do not have to write too many individual emails. While China is booming and money is floating around, many bright business ideas (including a few of myself) find it rather hard to get funded, I discovered. Sometimes because they are too small for the professional VC's, sometimes because many bright ideas are not about semi-conductors and just fall out of the scope of many investors.
There are also enough individuals around who do not mind to invest in some of those bright ideas, if they believe in it themselves. As we discovered the hard way: having a bright idea is not enough to generate revenue.
But it seems worthwhile to see whether it can work. What is the procedure? First, you have to convince me your idea makes sense. Since I do not put money in it myself, that should be doable unless it is really a crazy idea. Then I put up an ad that should convince smaller investors. And then the real work starts. Of course, the service is not for free, but packages can be developed depending on the situation of your project. Here is our first example:
