Are Angels Preferred Venture Investors?

Social Science Research Network Working Paper Series (1 October 2007)

We examine the impact of business angels on 182 Series A financings and subsequent company outcomes. Our studied rounds have a varied mix of business angel and formal venture capital investors (VCs). We find that when only angels participate in a financing round and VCs are absent, control rights are more entrepreneur-friendly, legal expenses are lower, and investors are more geographically proximate to the company. Such angel-backed companies are less likely to fail and are more likely to have a successful liquidity event. We find that companies financed exclusively by VC investors also perform well, particularly when deals are large. Companies financed by both angels and VCs experience inferior outcomes. Our results suggest that entrepreneurs consider business angels to be preferred investors and VCs investing in small deals face adverse selection. For larger deals, where deeper-pocket VC participation is required, these roles reverse and angels face adverse selection when investing alongside powerful VC syndicates.

Open Question: How to Bill for a Freelance Assignment

I’ve recently started freelance writing and consulting after many years working on staff. A successful entrepreneur I’ve done business with in the past has been giving me some work. He’s a nice guy and much admired in the profession.

However, he’s very disorganized–new ideas keep popping into his head and I’m spending half my time with him organizing and figuring out what he wants because he keeps going in new directions. I do want to work with him and I don’t think he’s trying to cheat me. But I’m not making a lot of money because of all the organizing work. I don’t think I can change him, but maybe I should try to arrange an hourly billing.

Do you think this is a good idea? Any thoughts from anyone else with a client like this?

Open Question: Whats are some differences between ‘entrepreneur’ and ‘businessman’ ?
Open Question: ATTENTION Matchmaker Company Owners–Datebox & Speed date Software?

Just wondering if anyone has used e-marvel’s datebox and speeddating software. Is it any good and is there anywhere to get both for cheaper than $650? Are there better software or tools? Entrepreneur looking for advice here….

Resolved Question: Women: Which job is the most interesting? (POLL)

Lets be honest, when we meet new people certain jobs these people hold might generate more interest in the person. Like a girl who is a cashier isn’t as impressive as a girl who trains dolphins or something. I know personality counts the most, but lets set that aside.

out of these jobs which would interest you the most:
Fireman
Lawyer
Accountant
Police officer
CIA/FBI type job
Doctor
Entrepreneur
Artist/Musician/Actor

Pick one or rank them please. I’m just curious, my friend and I had a disagreement about which kind of job really can get women. He said one, and I said a different one. I just threw in some random jobs to mix it up.
Maybe rank top 3
Thanks for the answers. Very interesting. Really didn’t go exactly the way I was expecting, but I think my pick just edged his out.

Resolved Question: Has anyone tried the new "Vegan" KFC Sandwich that RHH entrepreneur Russell Simmons is promoting?

Available right now only in Canada ~ it is a un-chicken sandwich wrap. He thanked KFC in Canada “for making a conscious effort for the growth of animal rights and healthier eating to support the growth of this new earth”. This may not be about rap but Russell is a mogul in RHH!!!
Hipster Hop ~ I don’t know if you are 9 or 10, but people do go to McDonalds for the salads and this the the 2nd smarta$$ answer from you today!! Check yourself before you wreck yourself!!!
Slim ~ you are 14 years old ~ this section is R & hip hop…Russell Simmons is a HIP HOP MOGUL…is you don’t like it lump it…I’m queen of this hill baby!!!!
And the sandwich is “coming to America “soon”. I’m trying to “enlighten” minds here people!!!
apology accepted Hipster Hop

Open Question: Im 16 y.o, and I want my first car to be..

Audi Q7, or the BMW x5 (the x5 used)… Is this a good choice for a first car.. I take good care of everything I own, I’m responsible and I love to look good and have elegant things.. I’m a young entrepreneur so I can probably get any car up to like 85k and pay it off within some time.. I’m not considering anything like a Toyota or a Nissan because im just not into those cars, however i know that they are great and have great milage..
Wow, I sorta forgot about insurance… What will it cost me to insure those cars that I mentioned?
P.S. Thanks for all your replies!
For one of the people that asked me, what do I do to make me an entrepreneur… I basically started a real estate group in Ukraine, but sinceI live in Brooklyn 2/3 of the year i really wanan try making something here… P.S: Everything is possible in Ukraine!!!

Open Question: Tips for a young entrepreneur

I’m 17 going on 18 (in less than a week) and am really interested in possibly starting a small business on the side. I already have high leadership positions in school clubs, and a presidential position in my youth group. I have a good work ethic and aim to please. I have worked with clients on small graphic design/marketing related tasks before, so I am no stranger…

Just some tips please! Preferably from other entrepreneurs.

Thanks :)

Open Question: what are good entrepreneur books are good to read?

i looking for nice entrepreneur books to read, those who have good biographies and accomplishments

Simplot Funeral Held in Boise

Simplot Funeral Held in Boise.
But aside from being an innovator and entrepreneur Simplot was also a man with a generous heart, known for donating millions of dollars to Idaho organizations and sponsoring the annual Simplot games in Pocatello.

Phil Batt: Former Idaho Gov: ‘He had a unique ability to spot an opportunity or a worthy cause and he went after it until his vision was accomplished.’

Simplot was born into the horse and buggy era and lived into the space age but no matter what happens in the future those who knew him best say there will never be another man quite like John Richard Simplot.

Phil Batt: Former Idaho Gov.: ‘There will be other self made wealthy people and other great philanthropists but Idaho will never see a person who came from poverty with little education and who played such an integral part in transforming a state from a sleeping giant to the marvelous complex and vibrant modern society that makes us so proud to be Idahoans.

Entrepreneur Darrell Wade issues a challenge to our readers.
Today, entrepreneur Darrell Wade, founder of Intrepid Travel, issues a challenge to our readers. Here is his letter to me:

Dear Amanda,

What do companies do to respond to humanitarian crises?

Using Burma as an excellent example - 25,000 people reported dead with the crisis getting worse by the hour. Do companies take their corporate social responsibility rhetoric seriously? What do they actually do to help?

For our part, The Intrepid Foundation has just donated $20,000 to Medecins Sans Frontieres and promoted the work of MSF (also known as Doctors without Borders) in yesterday”s Intrepid email newsletter to 400,000 people.

I have travelled to Myanmar several times in the past and it is heartbreaking to

hear the extent of the destruction.
