Morris: Founders should be transparent about who else is investing in their round
“And so if you know an investor is actually interested in your company and is talking to you for the right reasons, being asked the question, who else is investing your round? I think it's a totally fair question. And on the investor side, like you really want …”

Jeff Morris Jr.: Angels cannot afford to be overly price sensitive
“I think for an angel looking at companies, you can't be too price sensitive because really the opportunities are fewer and harder to find. So when I see a dealer company that I love, I'm normally not as price sensitive just because I want to get in business wi…”

Jeff Morris Jr.: True contrarianism stems from deep expertise, not posturing

Angel investors require more conviction to be contrarian than institutional VCs
“As an angel investor, it's a lot more risky because it's your own money, and if you make a bad bet, that's money you'll never see again, and you know, most of us aren't making management fees, and we're kind of getting by the returns that we make for ourselves…”

Jeff Morris Jr.: Founders consistently underestimate customer willingness to pay
“You can always charge a little more than you think customers are willing to pay. And I saw Adam Draper mentioned, you can charge four X the amount that you think customers are willing to pay. I think that's probably a little bit high, but I do think we underes…”
