                <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you&#8217;re looking for angel investors, then I have a resource list for you. This is a tiny fraction of good resources, more a &#8220;start-here&#8221; list than a good list.</p>
<ol>
<li>Start with <a href="http://gust.com/knowledge">gust.com&#8217;s knowledge section</a>. Gust.com (pronounced like a gust of wind) is a platform for angel investment, grouping together several hundred angel investor groups and thousands of angel investors. The knowledge section there includes a great collection of useful short videos from experts, and a blog (on which I&#8217;m proud to say I post often). And gust.com is free, by the way, at least free for you and me. Some investors &#8212; but a small minority of them &#8212; pay.</li>
<li>Look at the <a href="https://timberry.bplans.com/category/angel-investment">angel investment category on my Planning Startups Stories blog</a>. I&#8217;ve been posting there since 2007, and perhaps more relevant to this list, since I joined an angel investment group in 2009.</li>
<li>Look at <a href="http://angel.co/">Angel List</a>, and then do a web search for blog posts and articles about Angel List.</li>
<li>Get into <a href="http://www.quora.com/Angel-Investors">quora&#8217;s section on angel investors</a>. Great questions, great answers.</li>
<li>And of course, <a href="https://www.bplans.com/site_search/?q=angel+invest">look here too, on bplans.com</a>. Don&#8217;t assume last is least.</li>
</ol>
<p>And keep this in mind, as you&#8217;re looking: angel investment works for a small percentage of good companies that are not just interesting businesses, but also interesting businesses to outside investors. Read up on what angel investors invest in, then take a good look at your business, and ask yourself whether it fits that mold. Be honest with yourself when you answer.</p>
