Angel funding is often an attractive option for businesses that need a fresh injection of finance. If you find the right investor, it can be quick and cost effective. Often, your angel investor will be willing to contribute time as well as money to help safeguard their investment and push for an exciting return. Usually, they will have general business experience but if you’re lucky, their experience will be directly relevant to the type of business you run.
In the catalogue and e-commerce sector, there is no real network of angel networks with direct experience of the sector. Without doubt, there are a number of individuals prepared to make (sometimes discreet) investments in other businesses – but these people can be hard to wheedle out. To address this, I decided to form a syndicate of investors clearly focussed on funding businesses in the catalogue and e-commerce sectors only, where we have direct and relevant experience that we can contribute to the growth of the investee business.
Our syndicate is called Gramar Investments. If you’re interested in investing alongside us, or you have an investment proposal you would like us to consider, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. You can read more about our ‘investee profile’ on the Gramar Investments website.
