Hi.
There are a few local businesses in my area that I feel have the potential to grow. Are there any good books (or other resources) that deal with investing in small local businesses?
I'm not sure if my question deals with becoming either an angel investor or Venture Capitalist - I simply see opportunity here. But I want to educate myself before I invest. In general, I want to properly analyze the business, its market, come up with solutions to increase its potential, and (most importantly) structure a deal that allows me to capitalize on its growth. Any ideas on where to get started?
Thanks.

Re: need ideas for investing in local businesses
I have bought the book "how to buy a business at a great price" which is fairly good you can find it on bizbuysell.com and some other sites. I would not limit yourself to local companies I would look for the best opportunity - much like investing in stocks it may not be in your backyard.

I agree I would look for the best investment not necassarily the most familiar (local) good luck

I would google due diligence and you should come up with some pretty good resources and checklists for buying a business
