Session Details:
This session will take place at ModernWell on November 18th, from 12:00pm-1:00pm.
Join us at ModernWell for an introduction to Angel Investing led by Heidi Zimmer, Founder, Wild Rice Retreat and President of Zimmer Development.
Need to raise capital for your business? Don’t want to take on any more debt but looking for investors that won’t take any control? The solution may be Angel Investing.
Most businesses are too small for venture capital and private equity but perhaps too large for crowdsourcing or the friends and family approach – that’s where Angel Investing comes in. Heidi will share how she raised over $1 Million for her business from 13 individuals through authenticity, a solid business strategy, a strong vision, and importantly, storytelling.
In this one hour session, Heidi will walk through how she got started, what worked and didn’t work, how long it took and the end result. She’ll share details of her pitch deck, marketing materials and prospectus. Prior to opening Wild Rice Retreat, Heidi raised funds for a nonprofit for 14 years and raising capital is in her blood. You will leave with strategies and tools to help you find those Angles among us for your business.
