 Articles of angel investors
Angel investors are individuals who invest in businesses looking for a higher return than found in traditional investments, and who often relish the thought of being a coach, a hands-on team member, or giving something back to the community.
Angel investors, on an individual basis or through groups, may invest up to 90 percent of the independent equity that early-stage businesses receive.
Angels usually provide the bridge capital from the self-funded stage of the business to the point the business qualifies for the level of funding provided by professional venture capitalists (VCs) or corporate strategic partners.

 Angel Investors
Angel investors hope to see their stakes in the firm rising in value when a bank, venture capital fund or an acquiring company puts together a larger financial deal to support the continued growth of the firm.
Angels are truly heavenly, as they are investing their own funds unlike the venture capitalists who invest other people's money.
Angel Investors make an investment into a business they are passionate about and in which they can bring added value.

 Angel Investors - Gemma Group Inc.
Angel investors are usually wealthy individuals or business people who make high-risk, potentially high-yield investments in start-up companies or small businesses who are looking to expand their market opportunities.
Angel investors typically focus on companies that have already developed a basic concept and business strategy, and are in the seed stage of investment.
These early stage investors finance the early development of business ideas and prepare a firm for later stage financing by venture capitalists and private equity investors.

 CELCEE - Angel Investors
Angel investing is one of the more well-known forms of private equity.
Seglin (1998) reports that angels typically value business plans that will allow for market dominance, technology-based ventures (both because angels see technology as providing potentially great returns, and because many angels created their wealth in technology and are loathe to invest in ventures in which they do not have personal knowledge).
Unlike other venture capitalists, "angel investors" are willing to provide funding for start-up businesses without asking for a large equity stake in the growing business.

 Angel Investors
Angels undertake invest­ment strategies that allow them to cope with risk by indulging their needs for dominance and autonomy The other side of this profile is that, unless an entrepreneur is willing to permit the investor partner this scope, there is less likelihood of a success­ful partnership.
Investors do not even bother to read such business plans, and in the eyes of many investors, too many business plans are simply not well prepared.
However, investors will also be looking at the prospects of future growth in earnings and therefore future appreciation in the value of their investment.

 Angel Investors
Angel investors are wealthy private individuals, often with a background in business, who make new investments in startup business plans.
Angel investors will probably wish to play an active part in your business, bringing their expertise to bear on the growth of their private investment.

 About Angel Investors
Today, angel investors are usually financially sophisticated individuals with a high net worth, willing to provide seed, start-up, and growth capital, or high-risk companies for an expected large return on their investment.
The angel organization usually charges the entrepreneur a fee for this service, thus limiting the investment opportunities to only those companies who are aware of the organization and willing to pay the fee.
Angel investors usually possess the discretionary income as well as the personality required for risky venture investments.

 C-Cap Page for Angel Investors
Angel members are not legally obligated to invest in any opportunities presented by C-Cap, but C-Cap reserves the right to terminate angel members who do not make any investments over a substantial period of time, in order to limit the distribution of business plan summaries to interested investors.
Investors must be "accredited" investors (under securities laws) in order to become members of C-Cap and invest in the companies that C-Cap presents to them.
The typical angel member is seeking a return on investment comparable to that obtained by venture capital firms.

 PARTNERING WITH ANGEL INVESTORS
If the angel is prepared to make the time commitment for you that you expect, be prepared to spend a fair amount of time educating the angel about your business and your industry.
Many of these corporate angels are making their equity investment in connection with a strategic alliance between the corporate angel and the company.
This equity investment may be used to assist in the diversification of the corporate angel's operations (an investment in a non-related industry) or to promote development in their own industry by the financing of a supplier, technology developer or other industry participant.

 EntreWorld - Starting Your Business
Angels exchange their cash either for debt to be converted at intervals into equity, cumulative convertible preferred stock or common stock with voting rights, often serving as advisors and usually holding entrepreneurs to budget and sales goals, the article explains.
Investors are looking for entrepreneurs who have gone back to the bootstrapping way of starting a business--entrepreneurs who have used their own seed money, created a business plan, acquired customers and set up distribution channels.
Entrepreneurs should look for investors who are locally based, comfortable with risk and familiar with the industry in question, as well as prepare to spend as long as a year prospecting for the right fit, he notes.
