Angel Investor Contact Details – How to Get Them

In this article I answer the question: Angel Investor Contact Details – How to Get Them? There are two main options when looking to obtain contact details for angel investors. If you’re looking to find contact details for angels, you can either buy a directory of investors with contact details researched by the database provider. Or, you can do the work yourself or hire someone on your staff to do it.

If you’re going to do all of the work yourself or delegate it to a person on your team, you have to consider the cost of this decision. Is it worth assigning a relatively mind-numbing project someone on your team who is capable of completing much more challenging projects? It’s worth wondering whether it may be better to simply pay for an already completed database without putting someone on your team through a long process of finding contacts and researching each investor.

Additionally, what is the opportunity cost? Not only could you make that employee very dissatisfied with this job but also you could be taking him or her away from a much more profitable task that he or she is used to doing, such as contacting these investors or managing a different part of the business.

On the other hand, you could purchase a database and get your team all the leads they have been waiting for. Then, you simply decide which investors you’d like to work with and go through the database contacting each one that you think is a great match for your business. I’ve found that this is often the preferred investment for entrepreneurs and businesses who have more important things to worry about in managing the business than researching and finding investors–a job that could take hundreds of hours.

But… if you want to be able to quickly contact and work with angel investors you will need a angel investor directory in Excel format.
