STARTING A BUSINESS? FIND AN ANGEL

Find an angel.
The whole mentor and coach thing has become so overblown that - I know this is going to piss a lot of people off, but - I wouldn’t go that route. Instead, find an angel investor who’s willing to provide seed funding for minority ownership. Why? Two reasons:
1) Objective feedback and validation from a professional investor, another pair of eyes, is huge, and
2) to help you navigate the business stuff that isn’t your forte.
MY THOUGHTS
why would i open a business that is not my forte? opening a business is hard enough. opening a business you know very little about is suicide.
