A strategic investor is someone who has a strategic reason for investing in your enterprise; that is, they have an over-arching interest in your success. You can find strategic investors by looking through your supply chain and your value chain. Even your competitors can be a source of strategic start-up capital if they are looking to you as a new co-opetitor.
Say you are bootstrapping a new home builder. A trade creditor (supplier) might extend credit to you for building materials and supplies or a client might give you a sizable down payment on a home purchase; in essence, each of them become a strategic investor in your business. Or say you are starting an athletic wear clothing business, department stores might give you a cash advance in return for exclusivity or a sports drink company might sponsor your line of clothing in return for co-branding opportunities.

Get the strategic investormug. When someone makes the worst decisions from a logistics standpoint. Or when someone who is considered a genius conducts the dumbest plans. Typically the term is used when describing a character in a movie or show, who is meant to be formidable, intelligent, yet for some contrived reason isn’t able to follow basic logic, and fails at basic critical thinking skills for the sake of the plot.
