Growthink - a leading entrepreneurial consulting firm that has helped thousands of clients develop business plans - reveals the secret to finding angel investors. Angel investors are those elusive, much sought-after individual investors with money for early-stage companies. And unlike marketing efforts for other business ventures, wide-ranging marketing efforts for securities and equity is forbidden by US law, bound by "General Solicitation" regulations.
