Personal strategic action plan to become a good BUSINESS ANGEL
The aim of this deliverable is to help people who want to start investing as a Business Angel, by developing a personalised strategic plan with the help of advice from the best Lead Investors.
- For the first 30 days, Business Angels enrolled in the Business Angel School must reflect on strategic points using advice from other investors in the form of TIPs. Each day, they will have to write their reflections in this document and, for this, they will be able to use the advice of the best investors that they will receive.
- In the second month, they will be invited to carry out practical exercises and group tasks, accompanied by other investors, in order to execute and improve the Business Angel Plan.
The idea is that they have a good written document that can be easily shared with a Lead Investor and other investors who, thanks to their experience, will give feedback and provide further advice to improve the plan, increasing success and reducing investment risks.
