Uber founder Travis Kalanick: “Every angel deal that gets done is a momentum play”

What happens. What I see happens a lot is it's a momentum play. Every angel deal that gets done is a momentum play. And so the key there is there's a whole set of things you can do in the art of the deal to make it high momentum hot. You know, a high momentum play that gets you funded at the end of it. I wrote a blog post on that. It's called Seed Raising Skills and there's like three Z's on there but you can just go to my blog and take a look. But there's a process, there's an art of the deal to bring momentum. Angel deals are about momentum. And so you first gain that, you know, you get that information out there, you get awareness and then there's certain ways of saying things to get angels to start tipping over and then when they start tipping then you know, then it becomes momentum and there's certain ways to play that.
