Angel Investors and Entrepreneurs

  Steve Ells is investing his money on a new hit series called America’s Great Next Restaurant. Steve Ells is the founder of Chipotle and he began his restaurant chain with an $85,000 loan from his father in 1993. He was born in September 1965 in Indianapolis, Indiana. He has been appointed Chairman of the board in 2005. Before Ells launched Chipotle He was working at Stars Restaurant for two years. He graduated from University of Colorado with a bachelor of art degree in art history and graduated from Culinary Institute of America.
Steven Ells is one of the investor for Americas Great Next Restaurant, which they are seeking to invest millions of dollars into opening three restaurants in New York City, Minneapolis and Los Angeles. One of the key components is that they are looking for is a unique name. This is a key component because the name reflects to the owners and what they are portrayed as with their company.


  Mark Cuban is the next angel investor I will speak about. Mark was born in Pittsburgh, PA on July 31, 1958. He started his business venture as young as 12 years old. He sold garbage bags to afford a pair of basketball shoes. He eventually paid off his student loans by collecting and selling stamps. Now he is owner of NBA Dallas Mavericks, Magnolia Pictures and chairman of HDTV cable networking. His key component for a business plan is very simple. If there is an actual need for the product. And this key component is simply for profit reasons. Another important key component he looks for is the track of the business plan and the financial records. Also how much money the one seeking investment is willing to pitch in to the table. He believes that business plans that are strongly planed tend to do better then others. Also if one is willing to invest his own money into a business plan they seek investment for, usually work harder and stick to the plan.
