- How to Find Angel Investors for Your Startup |
When you’re growing your business, it’s important to have the right resources to support that growth.
And this is extremely hard to do when you don’t have the funding.
Finding angel investors for your startup and a good angel investors network is paramount to gaining financial momentum for your business.
Having gone through the process of finding angel investors for my own startup business funding and eventually becoming an angel investor myself, I have a ton of tips for how to find the right business investors for your startup.
In this video, I explain the exact 3 step process I use to find angel investors, how to contact angel investors, and how to tap into the angel investment network and use it to your advantage.

Do you ever do insight on Nonprofit Organizations ?
yes

Simple and to the point! Bottom line...YES! I'm going to use these steps for my startup in the B2C/SaaS/Wellness/Competitive Underdogs space! (See that step 1?)
I love your advice. It is so incredibly important to build a relationship instead of just asking for money. When you value someone’s advice, they are much more likely to help you financially later on… it’s human connection and community that truly makes a difference.
Absolutely!!

Glad you got value!
I really enjoyed listening to your advise. I have a business that is operating for a few years now and I need guidance and investors to move ahead in the right direction. I am extremely passionate about my business and I know it can be lucrative over the next 5 to 10 years and beyond. Right now I restarted the business after covid and I need to find the right investors for me. I would be willing to have a meeting where I will talk about my projections that if done properly will take the business into the millions. It would a great investment and I am willing to work at it with some training or advice given.
Great info.
YES!YES!YES!
This video is totally life changer.
Means so much!
Thanks TK buddy.
Great advice TK
Thank you! So glad to hear you got value!!
Would you try and hit up people from your hs that have a super insanely successful startup? Even if their app is in a different space?
Really interesting video thanks cheif 👍
Glad you're getting value!
Yes. Great info. Can't use it. My idea has (as far as I know). Has never been attempted before .
It’s fun to be first. But often risky.
my biggest problem at the moment. Is finding a marketer that knows how to handle my idea. I have been told that it's a great idea, by these people. Frustrating!@@TKKader
Yes!!
Yesss!🙏
🙏🏼
YES!
Yessss!!!
Awesome!
Is there any reason to be concerned about the amount of details that we share with the angels?
I understand that just an idea is really of no significant value. But, if an angel has the expertise and the team to be able to go after the same problem that I am trying to solve, how much info is enough info to be shared safely?
This might be a dumb question, but I would appreciate if you could please answer this.
Thanks a lot!
It’s a great question. Truth is it really depends. You’re never going to be 100% safe from that happening - but the likelihood of someone doing that is lower than you’d think.
My approach is to start slow and as we build mutual trust, share more. And I keep a list of things that I think are truly secrets that I won’t talk about or dig into just so I have a game plan when I’m going into conversations.
@@TKKader Thank you for the response!
Glad that you took out time to answer. Would the same hold good for accelerators? For a first time founder where the product is a marketplace and not a SaaS product, would it make more sense to go with a start-up accelerator over angels?
@@nelsongodwin9477 You can do both. It doesn't have to be one or the other. Just make sure you choose a credible accelerator. Not all accelerators are created equal.
@@TKKader Sure. Will keep this in mind. Thank you very much for your advice 🙂👍🏼
After being in the Software patent industry for 3 years I honestly won’t recommend being to secretive about ideas 💡. Of course a balance is key. But there’s so much opportunities in open source technology available now days. It has a great track record. But I’m willing to be balanced if investors don’t like it.
hello sir, thank you for this informative video! i was wondering if it'll be okay to start my llc's structured like a umbrella company AFTER getting funded by an angel investor? or do i have to get the llc structured first? part of the money, i was going to use to use it for educational courses on managing a holding company as well as courses for starting and operating the specific business that i will be building.
1/ Focus on one idea and get to product market fit.
2/ Investors will want you to establish a C-Corp focused on ONE idea that they're interested in funding (not holding companies with multiple unproven ideas)
@@TKKader i am focused on one idea, i have been for almost a year now. the reason why i want holding company structure is so that i can save more on taxes..that's it. so do u still think i can get funded without having an llc established? i have my business plan ready and compelling data.
Investors typically want to see a C-Corp.
Yes!!! 👍 👍 👍
yes!
you need to elevate the camera angle a little. Good advice. Thank you TK.
Thanks Warren, glad to hear you’ve got value from the video!
Yes! 💪
If an idea 💡 is really good how long might this rasing capital phase take ?
Hell Yeah!
Great content.
Glad you enjoyed it!
What if they took your idea and execute it right away? They may be your direct and indirect competitors, they have the resources to execute it immediately. Any thoughts on this?
They are going to do it anyway once you hit the market. I do believe stealth works if you’re building on a secret advantage. But there aren’t too many of that in software.
yes
YES
Yes
Thanks.
Anytime!
Interesting how it’s the same type of methodology as the ICP exercise.
The core principles to success often overlap ;) Great catch!
YESS
Music could be 3-4 decimals lower. Good info.
Yep we’ve removed the music in the newer videos :)
YES! - @TK - This is random but do you play basketball?
Sometimes.... !
Yess

Hello TK, Hope you see this. When pitching is it necessary 2 have a co-founder?
It’s not a must today. But it sure does help strengthen the story around the bench strength of your team.
@@TKKader Yes I understand. Whats the next closest title after co-founder?
Sir, is english language required to raise funds from angel and VC
Not necessarily. This is a broad question and there is no broad silver bullet answer. It all depends...
YESSSSSS
Starting a business with a new product for FBA. Need an investor for start up. Where do I start? C corp,S Corp, LLC? Angel investor or seed.
Talk to investors first. If they’re writing you checks, the rest becomes a lot easier. Also talk to a lawyer.
We need funds and have all Machineries need Packing machines and funds for my Company related to Food Products Mainly in Masalas, Pickles, Papads, Jams etc.I want to start it in large scale, So need funds...
at 6:17 you really had me dude! I was like: O M G Y E S
Boom!
Yessss
🙏🏼
I already have my pitch running but unfortunately, no interested angel investors yet. Not sure if because of the amount that I am raising (not that big) or the pitch itself. Hope I could use this video as a guide or someone could be a guide for building and strengthening my pitch specially that I am a newbie. But anyway, great video keep it up.
Keep on!

What if the product you’re doing, nobody is doing it? How do u search for that group?
If NO ONE is doing it in any shape or form, it may be for a good reason. The market may not be great.
@@TKKader it’s a dessert box many others are doing it, but there not doing what I want to do if that makes sense.
This is a good place to start: tkkader.com/saas-checklist.
@@TKKader thank you!!
Hello Sir,
I am a 17-year-old from India. I have a team and we are working on an app. I want to take it as a startup. Is it good to do so at this age? or should I wait till 18?
Keep going! Don’t stop. Age is just a number.
@@TKKader thanks a lot
Age dos not matter - may need a parent to sign legal documents.

I need investor for logistics business in Uganda
I like your strategy but there can be a downside to that. Some investors will listen to your company's unique position then share with their mature startup in to take to market before you get there.
That’ll happen anyway after you launch. Shouldn’t stop you from entering the arena.
Can you help me get an angel investor?
No
This is where I get frustrated. I have no idea where to find investors for the type of business I want to get into. I'm not sure where to find investors in general.
Raising money is always a frustrating aspect of building companies. But it’s not the only frustrating part. It is certainly a rite of passage.
Gold
Boom!
"investors really want to see the pitch to a customer, to see if this company has legs to run..."
Founders who haven't exited before, and currently have zero product market fit, fail to understand they're not ready to raise.
Real meat is at the middle to end video.
Product market fit is everything. I need to do a video entirely dedicated to this.
Yessssssssssssssssssssssss
