<p><b>New page</b></p><div>If you're an emerging business with the subsequent fantastic item, occasionally you want an angel on your side.<br />
A study by the University of New Hampshire's Center for Venture Investigation showed that "angel investors" - high-net-worth individuals prepared to invest in entrepreneurial businesses at an early stage - shelled out much more than $18 billion into early-stage organizations final year alone, compared to $304 million by venture capitalists.<br />
Locating an angel investor, even so, is not an straightforward job. Safer Smokes Inc. is one company that understands the challenge of attracting the proper investors.<br />
This improvement-stage company is tapping the smoking cessation marketplace with a unique tobacco-totally free, nicotine-free smoke referred to as Bravo, which has the appearance of a conventional cigarette and burns like tobacco, but is truly made from lettuce fibers.<br />
"Bravo lets you smoke your way out of the tobacco habit gradually," mentioned Puzant C. Torigian, chief executive officer of Safer Smokes.<br />
For organizations like Safer Smokes, it could be also soon to approach big venture capital firms, however time to move beyond networking with loved ones and friends. Angel investors to the rescue.<br />
"The challenge for raising capital in today's industry is in harnessing the courage and vision of the angel to see through to the actual investment chance," stated Torigian.<br />
So how do companies like Safer Smokes attract their angel?<br />
* Have a clear-cut target market for your item or service. For instance, Safer Smokes is targeting the smoking cessation market place, which has sales approaching $10 billion per year, up from $6 billion just three years ago.<br />
Most angel investors prefer firms that are likely to show positive cash flow within their first 18 months, so having these types of statistics about your marketplace can be an incentive.<br />
* Match the organization plan objectives to the angel's risk tolerance. Investors want to know the product or service will be unique and well-cultivated. Safer Smokes has a patented resolution that firm officials say will "have an effect on the landscape of the health care business."
