Venture Capital is a great way to make lots of money. This is a lot more risky then buying shares of a massive corporation but the risk pays of for the high reward.
It is important that you buy into a market you understand. You shouldn't buy shares of a fashion business if you don't understand it unless there is a person who recommends it to you and understands the market. This is important so you understand market trends and determine if the product will succeed or not. Also there is risks with investing. Even though you can make a lot of money, you can loose a lot of money. Treat the money you invest as loses.
A great site is StartEngine. To invest you should look for a company in a market you understand, find a company you think will do well (look at there business plan) and then invest in the company. You can then get dividend on the shares (if the company pay dividend) or sell it on the secondary market when share price goes up.
A site like StartEngine is a great way for small investors to be a venture capitalist and invest in small business they believe will become successful.
