👼🏽Aspiring angels: here's a Q&A thread for you, inspired by a series of qs that an aspiring angel asked me to answer. /1
Aspiring angel: I qualify as an accredited investor, but am not in a position to make significant investments. How can I dip my toes?

Me: You can write small checks, join a syndicate like @Backstage_Cap Crowd, or invest through equity crowdfunding sites like @joinrepublic. /2
Aspiring angel: How do you estimate the potential upside of an investment?

Me: I look for a +$billion market size, a founding team w/ industry/tech/business expertise, traction that points to a market that is willing to pay for the cos solution, and cos differentiators. /3

1/ I’m reviewing investment consideration form submissions and I’m noticing that a handful of you noted you reached out to me bc of my tweet last week asking about pre-rev startup investors. And I think you’re wondering if I’m one of them too. Well…
2/ As an angel, I am open to investing in pre-rev startups when I can add value w/my background/network or when co's provide women products/services I want. My check-size will be ≦$5K. If we're a fit, submit your co below. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…
3/ As an angel, I will write checks of ≦$30K to post-rev pre-seed/seed startups or funds that align with my or @josh_taub’s background (e.g., B2B SaaS, Insurtech). Reasons: we can/want to be smart money. If we're a fit, submit your co below.
