Angel investor, Bill Payne, gives time, money to entrepreneurs in Montana and beyond

Bill Payne http://billpayne.com/ found a key to success early
on in his career: surround yourself
with people who have more experience
than you do.

Almost always, those more experienced
business associates already had
addressed the problems and provided
the insight Payne needed to move
ahead.

Today, the renowned entrepreneur
and angel investor — who splits his
time between Whitefish and Henderson,
Nev. — stresses that same philosophy
as he advises up-and-coming entrepreneurs.

His e-book, “The Definitive
Guide to Raising Money from Angels,”
is chock-full of valuable advice.
When it comes to entrepreneurship
and angel investing, Payne is the go-to
guy. He’s spent a lifetime honing his
craft.

Editor’s note: Bill Payne will share his
expertise in entrepreneurship and angel
investing in monthly columns published in
the Flathead Business Journal starting with
this issue.
