My differentiated investment strategy

Over the past few months, I've realized something important: The SuperAngel.Fund investment strategy occupies an incredibly unique position in the market.

If you look at the landscape of early-stage investors, there are really only two types:

On one side, you have the hobbyist angel investor. They're usually working full-time in another role as maybe a lawyer, accountant, small business owner or otherwise, and investing part-time. Their network, deal flow and ability to evaluate companies is limited by the number of hours they have after all their other professional obligations are met.

When these angels make investments, it's often a one-time binary decision. They write the check and then largely forget about the company within 6 months. Their ability to follow on is constrained and, as a result, their commitment and support for the company is limited.

On the other side, you have institutional VCs. Multi-member partnerships with rigid processes and complex LP agreements add constraints and dictate exactly how and when they can deploy capital.

I operate in the middle — a true hybrid that captures the advantages of both.

I invest with the speed of an angel but with the capacity of a fund. No committees. No constraints. But I'm doing it as my full-time focus with the sophistication and support only able to be provided by a professional investor, all with the leverage of other people's money (alongside my own, of course).

My strategy of writing small checks early allows me to build larger positions over time through follow-ons, secondary buys, and secondary sells.

This approach gives me several distinct advantages:

- Access to information through deep founder relationships
- The ability to capitalize on that information quickly
- Personal 1:1 relationships with founders BECAUSE I believed in them from day one

Everyone tries to build relationships with successful founders after they've proven themselves. But when you're an early believer, that's a fundamentally different relationship.

The reality is that exceptional founders aren't looking for another institutional check. They're looking for investors who truly understand them and their vision.

That's the gap I'm filling.
