Me: Then why don’t you take that same Series Seed doc and stick a price in it. How about you close your first capital (say $500,000) and put in the docs that you have up to [90] days to raise an additional $1 million at the same price at your discretion. Isn’t it like you said about angels? Actually not.

For ThinkNear , it looks like the whole process paid off in less than two years, after the Los Angeles company went from the TechStars accelerator just last June, to a healthy acquisition by TeleNav earlier this month for $22.5M. It's little known, but we were going to sign the docs on a Series A two days after we got the LOI for TeleNav.

In my activities as an angel investor, and my work with new ventures seeking investment, I find the “due diligence” stage to be fraught with the most risk. Set up an interview room, stocked with current docs. Usually this stage only really starts after an investor has expressed serious interest, or already informally agreed to invest.

In my opinion it’s the most natural fit and it would give Netflix a very strong presence in Los Angeles and in TV (obviously subject to getting the right writes from the studios). It would be like if Microsoft undermined it’s Office franchise by aggressively pursuing a Google Docs like strategy.

And I get flooded with legal docs, end-of-quarter financial administration, recruiting, whatever. How does the world in Los Angeles intersect differently with venture capital? Every so often I find myself caught up in a really hectic 3-4 week schedule where it seems like I float endlessly betweens meetings. Board Meetings. Conferences.

I don’t think any serious VC or angel thought it was “collusion.&# I get company portfolio requests (review board packs, sign legal docs, help with fund raising, review a new candidates resume, help with press release, request for meeting to discuss topics, etc.). We know that many angels love the service.

Some thoughts on raising angel money. In fact, most early investor work hard to help their startups get to the next level so it makes no sense for the angel investor and founders to be at odds. At a minimum every angel investor should ask for this. Was Paul Graham right in his “high resolution” financing post?
