I am a student at RTU and I have been given a task to interview investors and ask them questions on making the right financial choices, when it comes to investing in a business or start-up. The subject is innovative product development and entrepreneurship.These are the questions that I need answers to:
1)Are there any obvious signs that a business or start-up is worth investing?
2)Should the number of workers also be taken into account, when negotiating the sum of the investment?
3)Would it be considered more profitable to make decisions that make the business spread out into other sectors, or concentrate all efforts on 1 front, where it is already established?
4)What is the optimal period the investment should start generating revenue from the investment?
5)Should the investor be willing to give other forms of support, such as finding courses and teaching the staff?
6)What difficulties may occur when negotiating the sum of the investment and other conditions?
7) How closely should the investor monitor the spending habits of the business?
8) Would it be wise to invest from 200 thousand to 1 million US dollars as an investor with no prior experience?
It would also be very beneficial, if you could give a name and surname of the one who will be answering these questions.
Hope for your response,
Constantine Morozov
