I am trying to raise a small round $300k to 500k at maybe 1.2M to 2M for our house cleaning marketplace startup doing $100K gross monthly, 2x from last year. What is the best way to reach out to angel investors and or family offices? I think the round is too small for VCs, but would like to get Angels into it. Any ideas on finding Angel investors? Should I buy a list and hit the phones? Let me know thoughts and tips. Thank you.
If there is a better thread, please point me to it.
Why not just contact VCs directly and pitch them. This seems like an opportunity they might be interested in and you will probably need more funding down the line. I just read an article about marketplaces needing to reach critical mass before scaling. Have you already achieved this in your market?
Ya I am trying a new approach to get in the door. Emails and calls.
Yeah keep trying, I’ve seen it take hundreds of investors before you find the right few. If you have traction and good revenue you should get some interest somewhere.
