S11E9 - Amanda Greenberg: How Do You Land A Prominent Angel Investor?
You're in the midst of a capital raise. You keep hearing from angels that they are interested, but they want you to find a lead investor first. What if you instead targeted a more prominent investor? One who would go lead AND introduce you to other investors to help close out the round. In my conversation this week with Amanda Greenberg, Balloonr Cofounder a CEO, she talks through her process of landing Jason Calacanis. If you're not familiar with Jason, he's a big voice on the scene. His first company in the '90s was backed by Mark Cuban and sold to AOL. As an investor, he was an early backer of Uber, and 7 unicorns in total. And now he backs Balloonr. Listen here to how Amanda got on Jason's radar and ultimately received his backing.
