Startup Funding Espresso – Advantages to Being a Lead Investor

Advantages to Being a Lead Investor

Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso — your daily shot of startup funding and investing.

While the lead investor has many responsibilities there are also advantages.

Here are some advantages to being a lead investor:

Gain a better understanding of the startup through diligence work.

Gain a position in the startup or on the board.

Better understand the performance of the startup over time.

Have more influence over the direction of the company.

Have more say in key decisions and strategy.

Can help the startup avoid major challenges and disasters based on poor decisions.

Can protect the investment by helping negotiate the terms and provide follow-on oversight.

Can identify poor decisions and take steps to correct them.

Successful startup investments come from a strong team, proper mentorship, and sufficient funding.

The lead investor is in a key position to provide these elements to the startup.

Consider leading a funding round.

Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let’s go startup something today.
