"Please accept my sincere gratitude for granting us this opportunity today. Even if it may result in nothing, it has contributed to my personal development, and it has been a very appreciated opportunity to get us out there as a starting point to address an audience outside of our friends and family. I consider myself very lucky having met the two of you. Thank you for being as you are. What you do, is very often the only way for non-privileged entrepreneurs to truly start their journey. I feel very confident that we will be able to grow this into the new “Panera of Pizza” with your guidance and support. Thank you again for everything, especially for cheering me up during my first short-notice pitch to a completely unknown audience."

"The Gathering of Angels was most enjoyable and I hope to close on the interest expressed after the event. I especially appreciated the coaching during the practice sessions. That is something that other Angel groups fail to do  and it can be incredibly valuable and is much appreciated."

 

Shawn Smith, CEO of 1 True Health

​

"The Gathering of Angels is a most impressive event for entrepreneurs like us  and we were most impressed with great coaching, good focus and a new handful of new investors in Regenerative Medicine. Tarby is a great coach and mentor to our company and he personally took time to read, critique and prepare us for GOA event. The practice sessions with GOA Coaches before GOA event were invaluable  and his focus on Investor Hot Buttons was most helpful. We found many new investors in our company and I can't say enough good things about the GOA experience."

 

John Laub, CEO of Regenerative Medicine

​

"The Gathering of Angels experience has been unparalled in my search for funding. The communication and organization are top-notch and very effective in moving the proverbial needle. Tarby's advice helped fine-tune my slide show to better present my offering and the GOA coaches were able to give me an invaluable perspective from an Angel Investor's point of view. Packaged with contacts I would not have otherwise had, the participant feedback and ongoing support GOA provides, this service has been worth the effort of getting me closer to my goals as an entrepreneur."

 

Anthony Short, CEO and Producer of 3-Miga Films

​

"I wanted to express my sincere thanks and gratitude to you Tarby and your Team of seasoned coaches for the time in preparation and the GOA event in June 2020 on Zoom.

"Participating in the Gathering of Angels process gave us the feedback we needed to tighten our presentation and ultimately close significant funding from a GOA Angel. This funding has given us the shot in the arm to get to the next level. We are now on a rocket shipthanks to this investment from Gathering of Angels."

 

Sloan Foster, CEO of AutoThink

​

"My overall experience with GOA was very positive. Tarby and his GOA coaches are very professional about helping us prepare and practice our 15 min pitch, as well as putting us in front of 30-40 real Angel Investors. I now have about a dozen of these GOA Investors that are active prospects having expressed interest in my venture. These people could potentially blossom into long-term ongoing relationships as well. The ball is now in my court to convert these prospects into actual investors. All in, Gathering of Angels offers a good bang for the buck, Thank you Tarby."

“Having the opportunity to pitch your ideas to a serious group of angel investors is priceless. The Atlanta GOA was a great, and very welcoming, group of angel investors. The staff was organized and a big help in preparing for the presentation, which make a world of difference for newbies like me in this arena. The angel investors that attended the event are all very friendly and amazingly helpful, both before and after your presentation. Even the investors that are not interested in investing stopped to talk, and gave invaluable advice to move my venture forward.

“The benefits of my association with the Gathering of Angels are layered and many. First, there is the distinct prospect of funding for my fledgling enterprise. Second, several parties at the GOA meeting gave me very good legal and financial advice about how to structure and operate my medical supplies business. Third, I’ve established new friendships—all in less than a month. With GOA, I have found an organization and a leader in Tarby Bryant that I can follow, leadership that will help direct me toward the realization of a successful business. It’s not just an effort to make money, it’s a genuine push to help change lives. That’s what Tarby is doing, helping to fulfill dreams through his hard work by providing a multi-faceted support system in support of a common goal. On the surface and to a large degree, it is about business: but underneath, at least to me, it’s about lending a helping hand to fellow humanity.”
