Question 1: How did the entrepreneurial team get angel investment? Last July, it did receive millions of angel investments from Shunwei Venture Capital Fund. It has been more than a year now, and ZEALER is now preparing for the A round of financing. ZEALER's investor is angel investment, which was founded by the founder of the Angel Society headed by Xue Manzi in China. Others include Zhu Min, He Boquan, Kai-fu Lee, Weng, He Boquan, Lei Jun, Lu, Ni Zhengdong, Yang Xiangyang, Kai-fu Lee, Wei Chenxi, Zeng and Zhou Hongyi. Most investors are mainly insiders. ? First, make good use of word of mouth and attract "angels" through social interaction. According to foreign experience, a considerable part of angel investment is realized through the introduction of friends, relatives or social circles, especially some informal equity investors. In reality, even if many small and medium-sized enterprises have good management teams and entrepreneurial projects, they must never ignore the cultivation of their own credit qualifications and good reputation, which are often highly valued by angel investors. On the other hand, only by establishing a standardized behavior model, corporate reputation and social influence can it be widely recognized in the industry, improve intangible goodwill and enhance its attractiveness to investors. Second, Mao Sui recommended himself to find the "angel" in his mind. Entrepreneurs often have a blind worship mentality and worship successful enterprises and entrepreneurs in the industry, so they dare not touch them easily. Entrepreneurs should get rid of this mentality and hold a good mentality of "you help me develop and I will help you make a fortune". Under appropriate circumstances, they can directly recommend themselves, persuade the competent departments of these industries to invest in themselves, or help them design a road to attract foreign investment. At that time, Zhang directly found angel investment guru Negroponte and persuaded him to invest in Sohu, thus becoming one of the largest portals in China. Third, take the initiative to join the "angel party". Angel investors often have some regular gatherings to exchange investment experience, find investment projects and explore cooperation opportunities. Entrepreneurs should pay extensive and lasting attention to the news about activities, and can directly participate in and submit their own business plans or do some project demonstration. In foreign countries, such opportunities are very frequent and open, such as various theme clubs, social gatherings, public forums and so on. In China, due to the short history of angel investment, there are few "angels", but there are many such activities. For example, many private entrepreneurs' gatherings, financial forums, theme seminars and salon activities are actually excellent opportunities to promote angel investment and should be a channel worthy of attention. Fourth, follow the map and search the list of "angels". Foreign angel investment research institutions (such as AVCA- American National Venture Capital Association and BVCA- British Venture Capital Association) all publish lists of venture capital institutions, among which the list of angel investors is often published separately, including a large number of "angel" lists. If entrepreneurs need to go abroad for financing, they can follow the map and contact one by one. Of course, you can also use online services. In China, there are no clear angel investment associations and institutions, but a lot of investment information is scattered in various industry organizations, such as chambers of commerce, industry associations and investment companies. , can be used as a carrier to find information.

Question 3: How do angels make money by investing? Hello! Angels invest in a project or enterprise, which is actually the development of this project or enterprise. After the initial stage, the project or company has started to develop normally, and the invested project or enterprise is actually profitable (not just capital gains). The invested project or enterprise is acquired; Or share repurchase, angel investors get investment income, and the income from listing is of course greater. Being an angel investment will not require a monthly dividend (the investment company will never have a monthly dividend), and angel investors will not make such an act of withdrawing funds at any time. Asking for a monthly dividend and withdrawing money at any time is not what angel investors do! You are not an angel.

Question 4: How can I get the investment of angel investors? I have rich experience in industry management and have a vision for the development prospect of the industry; Rich life experience, have a clear understanding of the entrepreneurial team invested; Have a lot of money, or be able to raise a lot of money.

Question 9: About financing. What is the difference between seed round financing and angel round financing? First of all, you need to explain the meaning of seed stage. Seed period refers to a stage of the company's development. At this stage, the company has only ideas, but no specific products or services. Entrepreneurs only have a new technological invention, a new idea, a blueprint for future enterprises, and lack initial capital investment.

Secondly, seed financing is the financing behavior of start-up companies at the above stage. Generally speaking, the sources of funds are entrepreneurs' own pockets or relatives and friends, as well as seed investors and investment institutions.

Thirdly, the investment in the seed stage is generally in the order of 6.5438+10,000-6.5438+10,000 RMB.

Question 10: angel wheel, how many shares should the startup sell, how to value it and how to calculate it? Although angel investment has been widely recognized by most entrepreneurs in the past two years, we found that many entrepreneurs and friends are still unclear about similar questions, and they often ask us similar questions, so we simply share our previous answers with you again. 1, angel wheel, the first principle of financing: entrepreneurs take less money and sell less shares. In our opinion, the shares invested by angels should be sold less than more. The smaller the company, the more it should cherish its shares, because it wants more money at first and has to sell more shares, which is not good for the long-term development of the subsequent financing and management team. So generally speaking, we suggest that startups take less money and sell less shares. Among them, what is invisible is that for most startups, no matter how much money they get, they don't know how to really use the leverage of capital effectively. Capital is sometimes a poison. If it is not used in place, it will suffer. Spending less money can not only avoid this invisible harm, but also make use of the value of capital step by step, so that capital can follow people instead of being led by capital. 2. Angel wheel, the reasonable proportion of transfer. How many shares does angel investment generally hold? There are great differences between angel investors and angel investment institutions in this industry. So I can only answer the proportion of shares we want in Angel Bay. Angel Bay only makes angel investment in the Internet industry. Our upper limit is 25%. If it exceeds this ratio, we would rather not invest or adjust the amount and proportion. The minimum share is not less than 8%, and our seed project is the unified standard of 8%. Our range is 8%-25%, and the average share of our projects is about 15%. 3, Angel Wheel, valuation of early Internet projects How to calculate the shares of early Internet projects or seed projects involves valuation issues. Generally speaking, valuation is professional. The closer to IPO, the more professional evaluation model and data analysis are needed for reference. But generally speaking, early projects, especially seed projects, are difficult to be specifically valued, and more are willing to fight and suffer. There are two reasons for "willing to fight and willing to suffer": (1) The earlier the project, such as a product that has just been launched or operated, it is impossible to accurately evaluate its value. No users, no traffic, no income, no hard indicators. Then you have to rely on the angel investor's own professional judgment on the project/product, and how much value he thinks it is. If entrepreneurs encounter the Internet, as Angel Bay, our evaluation value of products is often related to the maturity of products, including the rationality of product architecture, the professionalism of UI, the convenience of ue interaction, and the satisfaction of user needs. In each part, Angel Bay and entrepreneurs will have their own opinions and judgments; (2) The earlier the project is, the success of the project/product depends more on the founding team, so most investors talk about investment and say that the team is more important than the product. This is basically the same. Good projects are all done by people, so it is impossible not to pay much attention to people. Then, how to evaluate the value of a team, even sometimes only one person has no team, so how do angel investors/institutions evaluate it? In this respect, different angel investors and angel investment institutions are very different, because people's judgment is the most delicate and professional. Many angel investors are completely infected by whether they can be persuaded by entrepreneurs, and even throw their heads when they are hot, which is difficult to value. As Angel Bay, we will also have our own standards to evaluate the team value, such as the team's resume background (including family growth background), the experience of developing Internet products, and the relationship components among team members (classmates, colleagues, friends? How long have you known him? ), the quality evaluation of team members, especially the evaluation of leaders. However, these evaluation values are only for reference and cannot be quantified from the perspective of economics. 4. Final Valuation To sum up, the valuation of the angel project is very difficult, and in most cases it is a situation of willingness to fight. However, no matter how difficult it is, a basic valuation basis is always needed. So generally speaking, Angel Bay will ask the founders of all intentional projects to make a financial plan. For this financial plan, we will ask for a financial budget of about 12 months, that is, how much money you need in the future 1 year. Why 12 months? Because the internet project, 1 year, is enough to see whether the product has room for growth and whether users need such products. In fact, many of our projects have been adjusted after a few months. Why? Wrong demand, wrong direction or wrong timing, or ... >>
