What are the advantages of the angel investor-based model for startups?

The entrepreneur has access to any market and also to a lot of knowledge without having the burden of dealing with many investors as the WOW team manages the whole process. Mentors are chosen from the group of investors. Interests are aligned by the investment and mentoring is not an obligation but an opportunity to make the investment increase its value.
