Has any one used a service like this Business Angels and if so was it with positive results? Either as an investor or as a beneficary.

I am not in anyway associated in the above site or any other Angel Site, just interested for some ideas I've got spinning in my head!!

I've been through a few rounds of raising funds for new ventures with a few Business Angels and some VCs a couple of times.

You will need a robust proposition/business plan before approaching either of these groups. Also, make sure you have a strong pitch and be prepared to let go of a significant part of your business equity in return for their investment - which could be expertise as well as financial.

My strategy now a days is to grow businesses organically through generating revenue for reinvestment.

PM me if you need any specific advice.

cheers for the offer, I am in the process of building the plan and the numbers it would be very robust plan no point going down that road without having a sound plan.
