You don't have to pitch to attract an angel investor. Here are some tips for how to get them to invest in you without pitching:

Make a great impression.
Angel investors are not just looking at your business. They're looking at you. Be someone they'd be happy investing in.

Make sure your business is ready for investment.
Angel investors don't want to waste their time with a business that's not ready for investment. Make sure you've started the business already, and you've got things like processes, sales numbers, and a team in place before you approach an investor.

Make sure your business is worth it.
Angel investors will only invest if they think your business has great potential for growth and profit. If you don't have a strong product or service, and there's no demand for it yet, angel investors might not be interested in investing in you yet.

Finally, don't give up! It may take a while to find the right person, but if you get discouraged too easily, it could show in your work, which is a surefire way NOT to attract an angel investor.

You're correct bro, angel investors aren't looking over quantity over quality. They're looking for quality, the business must worth it before investment comes in. Just as you've said, the business needs to be underway, most angel investors don't like being the chief engineer when it comes to powering a new start, they hardly invest when the business is at the infancy. Work must be shown for the business to grow to a level of attracting an angel investor, investing his or her hard earned money. Everyone is in for profit and no one will be willing to pounce his hard earned money on a project that lack potential, vision. The individual in response who is operating the business and seeking for an angel assistance need to convince the angel investor with the business model, innovative ideas with his or her team members, and the criteria in which the business gonna be on successful in the future. That's what investors look into to be convinced enough, then they will be satisfied to raise some amount of money which they can risk in order to see profit in the business. If the business isn't convincing to them, they wouldn't invest which is common.
