Find an Investor
raise capital for your Business!
At Smart Financial, we know that raising capital, choosing the best funding option, and finding committed investors can be a big challenge when you are starting or growing a business.
That’s why we have built a large network of investors and work with many venture capitalists to make it easier for the startups in our network to find investors and raise the capital they need. Our network includes accredited and non-accredited investors from almost all parts of the world interested in different industries (investing in B2B, investing in tech startups, investing in FinTech, investing in HealthTech, investing in EdTech and many others).
If you are a founder looking for an investor willing to invest in your (early stage, MVP, post-MVP, seed, Series A or other) funding round, we can connect you with investors from our network who are interested in investing in the industry, stage or country your startup belongs to.
Finding the right investor is a critical step in your startup’s survival and growth. Smart Financial has also built many partnerships with venture capitalists and other incubators/accelerators interested in investing in startups.
How We Raise Capital?
We help startups raise funds by creating high quality and professional documents needed to contact investors, venture capitalists, banks or other funders. We also connect the startup with the right angel investors.
Our system ensures that we approach the right angel investors and VC so that the response rate is higher.
We also save you a lot of time contacting uninterested investors or wasting your time facing unsuitable investors.
Types of investors
Angel Investors
Angel investors are individuals. These investors have an earned income that exceeds $200,000 annually or have a net worth that exceeds $1 million. They can be found across industry sectors, but usually work with entrepreneurs who are somewhere between their first-time financing and a venture capital effort
Peer-to-Peer Lenders
Peer-to-peer lenders can be individuals or groups. They help fund small businesses. If you want to apply for peer-to-peer lending, you need to apply with companies who are specialized in this type of financing. Lenders work with these companies to find businesses they want to finance.
Personal Investors
Businesses can turn to their family, friends, and networks for their first investments. Talk to an expert if you have people eager to help; only a certain amount of people can invest in startups and you’ll need to provide thorough documentation
Banks
Banks are a classic source for business loans. Before your application is approved, you will need to produce proof of a revenue stream or collateral. Because of this, banks are usually a better option for established businesses, but you don’t need to be a mogul to get financing.
Venture Capitalists
Venture capitalists are private equity investors that provide capital to companies exhibiting high growth potential in exchange for an equity stake. They usually invest sizable amounts of money and are typically used once a business demonstrates the potential for significant revenue.
