California Investment Network
Entrepreneur Advantages

Here are some of the advantages of using our service:

  • No stressful presentations ("pitches") to large groups of intimidating investors.
  • We are focused on a national and international group of investors unlike traditional Angel groups that tend to be very locally oriented.
  • We offer the choice of having access to international investors through our partner sites.
  • We accept a wide range of proposals in both dollar terms and industry groupings. Most Angel groups are only interested in higher value "tech/internet/health science" deals.
  • Can be largely accomplished from the comfort of your own home.
  • It is often less complicated dealing with individual investors as opposed to Angel groups.

Career spans over thirty years as a business owner, corporate executive, consultant, and scholar. Spent the first sixteen years of my career as an entrepreneur, creating, building, and managing several successful companies, including a commercial banking firm that catered to vendors and manufacturers using equipment financing as a catalyst for driving incremental sales. This business was acquired in 1996 and went through multiple mergers and acquisitions that ultimately led me to joining Citigroup’s CitiCapital division as Vice President. For the next seven years I managed the business technology sector responsible for Cisco Systems, Oracle, and other major companies, building this group’s sales to over $200 million. As a consultant, coach, and Chairman of Funding, my clients have included well known companies such as Ericsson, Lucent, Corning Optics, Herman Miller, Haworth, Steelcase, as well as many small and midsize businesses.
