One venture capitalist says she likes to invest while the founder is still using a personal Gmail account, before the company even has a domain name. We like the logic of getting in before something is polished. If you can get access to those opportunities, you get a better deal on the investment.
Ticker Tape invests much later in the game. But we still try to get in before everybody knows the company’s name. By the time a deal is publicly known, the best terms are usually gone.
Key points
- Some VCs invest before a startup even has a domain name.
- Getting in before a company is polished can mean better terms.
- Ticker Tape invests later stage but still aims to get in before the name is widely known.
