Angel Investors - Are They Right for You?

An estimated 26 billion dollars was invested in start up businesses in 2007 and the Center for Venture Research states that this year's totals should be comparable to those figures. With more banks and the SBA tightening the noose around the neck of small businesses, making it more difficult to obtain working capital, Venture capitalists and Angel investors seem more like a blessing than ever, but can an Angel investor really help your small business grow?

First of all, for those of you who aren't familiar with Angel Investors we'll define it for you. Angel Investors are those who invest in businesses looking for a higher yield than they would see from more conventional investments. Most are prosperous entrepreneurs, some who are retired and who desire to assist and finance other entrepreneurs in getting their business of the ground or back on track. Angel Investors are the passage from the self-funded phase of the business to the point that the business requires additional funding. Venture capitalists offer a higher level of funding. Approximately $100,000 to $2 million is invested in various start up businesses. The Angel Capital Association is North America's professional alliance whose mission is to increase the success of member angel groups.

Fund Your Business by Saving on Services

Many small businesses who need additional working capital may wonder if an Angel Investor or Venture Capitalist is a viable option to get their business off the ground or--out of a slump. This largely depends on the type of business that requires funding. Unfortunately, most small businesses aren't candidates for this type of funding and many have been turned down for traditional funding as well. So, what types of businesses do Angel Investors favor? Most of you will have already answered correctly but, according to one survey software developers, medical device companies, industrial/energy and business products and services are ranking as the most invested
in companies as well as information technology services.

So, like many others, you're probably thinking --- That doesn't help my small business. You're tried everything.  Your own bank, friends and family-- Maybe you've even contacted an Angel Investor only to have been sent packing. Don't feel bad, many small businesses are in a similar predicament.

Re-Investment by Re-Evaluation
Tampa Businesses Re-think Website Design Services

Bay Area Graphics & Marketing Can't recommend financing options for your small businesses, but we do offer you ways to save money, money that can be used to re-invest in your company. It may not be a quick fix however; we feel it will have a lasting, positive effect on the overall stability of your company.

Using the most affordable website, marketing and printing services for your small business services is one way you can save money that will be re-invested in your business. It may not seem like much, but if most small business owners took some time to reevaluate the cost of their current printing or marketing expenses and methods, they would realize that not only will they save money, but by initiating new and alternative marketing measures, they will generate new revenue.


Ad Design, Website Marketing, Printing

Ad Design / Marketing
Are your current ad campaigns really working for you? Could your company benefit from a new ad design, one that is written correctly and specifically with a revenue boosting call to action? A poorly written and designed advertisement is like throwing your money away. Many publishers design ads for their customers but what most people don't know is that many of these designers do not have a background in marketing which is crucial to the advertiser's success. Generally speaking, designing your own ad isn't in the best interest of your company image either. Sure, it may seem like you're saving money now but, how is saving money now affecting your long term sales?

Website (Ranking, On-line Sales)
What is true for a grand print ad design also applies to your website's titles and descriptions, as well. Google results of your website is in essence, your advertisement. Weakly written titles and descriptions are comparable to inadequately written print advertisements.  Bay Area Graphics & Marketing can review your existing ads, print and otherwise, and make recommendations as to how you can pull all of your campaigns together successfully and affordably.

Printing/ Marketing Materials
Printing is a huge expense for most small business owners and we would like to help you reduce that expense. If you believe you may be paying too much for your brochures, flyers, business cards, presentation folders or any other marketing piece then simply provide us with your current pricing and we'll let you know if we can beat that price. Cutting costs in this area is NEVER a bad thing.

Payment Terms / Special Offers
Bay Area Graphics & Marketing will make every attempt to work with you so you can obtain the services you need. Caring about your bottom line as much as we do our own is the secret to our success. We believe that success is meant to be shared! We've invested in the heartbeat of Tampa Bay's small business community by means of offering affordable business services-- and it's been an investment that it's proud of.

Tampa Business Services, Websites to Printing

From marketing to website design, graphic design and printing, our mission is and has always been, to offer small business services that are necessary for the overall success and growth of a company, at a price that even the smallest start up business can afford. By doing so, we build our own reputation for lasting business relationships which generate referrals and repeat business.


You may not be able to find anyone to invest in your businesses but is it possible that you haven't protected your own investment to the best of your ability? Cutting costs in pinpointed areas of your small business could be one way to re-invest in your own business.  Most people realize this but what they don't  realize is how cost-cutting in the wrong areas will be detrimental.

For instance, your company's online (website) presence should play a major role in marketing your company.  Yet, this area seems to be highly overlooked and under-maintained.  Many of you are saying not true but, surprisingly, in a typical knee-jerk reaction, Tampa area business owners who have a website may suddenly stop paying for their hosting, shutting down their website, not realizing the impact it will have. Even though hosting a website with Bay Area Graphics & Marketing costs about $15 monthly, (which is an incredible deal when you categorize it as an advertising and marketing expense.) When was the last time you could place an ad in any publication for $15 per month?  The wise thing is to build on your existing website presence. There are many creative and affordable ways to do so. Consider your own habits as a consumer--- Most people look on-line first and foremost when looking for local services or products. Bay Area Graphics & Marketing wants to see you there!
