It’s an old maxim that sometimes you have to spend money to make money, and that’s never truer than in the world of startups and early-stage businesses. In this edition of Searchlight – Entrepreneurs Journey, we are focusing on what you need to know about getting investment from Angel Investors. How do Angel Investors operate? What do they look for in an investment? What are the key dos and don’ts around getting an Angel investor on board? To answer these questions and more, regular hosts John and Sharyn are joined by Mike Avey, Managing Director of Pachira Capital, a Director of Redlands Angels and a former CEO of Brisbane Angels. Greg Beaven is a Redlander and tech entrepreneur who is also a member of both Redlands Angels and Brisbane Angels. To give the perspective of a business that has successfully obtained Angel funding, we have Royce Crown, CEO of Monarc Global, a platform that delivers real-time automated pricing for aircraft charter operators. The panel also run trough John's list of 'Common Pitch Fails' - so listen in to make sure you don't make one of these classic errors in your pitch!
