Why Angels Continue to Invest in Consumer Internet Deals
- auston 18y agoI definitely think there aren't enough investments in B2B companies.
- jasonlbaptiste 18y agoill be following up with my own post btw.
- dshah 18y agoGreat points made as to why angel investors seem to favor consumer Internet. As an angel investor myself, I'd add one more reason why: Consumer internet is just a lot more fun than enterprise software. Who wants to talk about enterprise intrusion detection for the Fortune 500 when you don't have to?
- jasonlbaptiste 18y agoVery good point. Will quote it in my post i'm working on.
- jwilliams 18y agoI think these reasons verge on a tautology. Consumer solutions are cheaper, because they are often free/cheap - therefore you don't need to guarantee a high level of service. Whereas, business solutions generally require some defined QoS. So you need to invest more - but on the flip-side, it's easier to turn this into defined revenue.
