Announcing Voodoo Ventures Syndicates
Over the last several years, we've made a number of investments in companies through Voodoo Ventures. We began making angel investments personally, and more recently began syndicating deals with other angels.
Today, I'm excited to announce the next chapter of investing for Voodoo Ventures. You can now participate with Voodoo Ventures on deals we invest in through a syndicate on AngelList. Learn more about what syndicating an investment means here.
It's a simple process, here's how to get started:
Apply to be an accredited investor on AngelList
Back me on AngelList - you will have access to all our syndicates, you may opt-out of investing
You'll be notified when we syndicate a new investment and have the opportunity to participate
Syndicates on AngelList finally opens up a scalable, straightforward opportunity for me to share our dealflow and investment opportunities with angels, and you can decide each time whether you want to participate.
Some things you should understand:
Following me will get you access to our dealflow and reservations we make on behalf of the Voodoo Ventures syndicate, it does not indicate any commitment to invest, you'll make that decision on each deal
We will take a 15% carry and AngelList takes a 5% carry
Our minimum investment in each deal will be $2500
We will invest a minimum of $12,500 of our own money in each deal
We'll be investing in the best companies everywhere, including New Orleans. If you just want to invest in New Orleans, you can choose to participate in those deals, if you also want access to deals outside New Orleans, you'll get it.
Personally, I'm really excited about the world this opens up. For years, I've had people in New Orleans say "I'm interested in investing, but I don't have time to evaluate all the dealflow, but I'm interested in investing in the deals you invest in." Previously, the only scalable way to do that was for us to raise a fund for Voodoo Ventures, which is something I haven't wanted to do, because I prefer to invest as an angel, I am an entrepreneur running other businesses, not a full time investor.
Participating in a Voodoo Ventures syndicate allows me to share access to our dealflow and and diligence. You as an angel to make the decision invest alongside me knowing we’re in the deal.
If this all sounds interesting, please take a minute to back me on AngelList and you'll get access to the investments we are making.
