Investor Relations Strategies – Taking Your Company Public – Don’t Get Eaten Alive

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

Before you decide to go public allow me to paint a picture for you. You’re on a crowded beach, the water is warm, the waves are calm and you decide to break away from the crowd and confidently swim a little further than everyone else. All is calm; the sun gently warms your back as one stroke after the next takes you further from the beach and closer to the distant horizon. A few minutes later the sun is covered by clouds and like a bomb ‘BAM’ a crack of thunder, lightning lights up the sky and buckets of rain begin to pour from gray clouds. You look back and the entire beach is deserted.

The lifeguard shack is empty and the waves begin to build. You’re trying to swim back to shore but the current violently drags you out further into the ocean. You fight to stay afloat as one wave after the next crashes upon you. Your lungs fill up with water, you’re muscles cramp and just as you’re about to give into your fate, the rain stops and the water becomes calm. You can gather just enough energy to begin to swim back to the beach. All of a sudden you feel a bump on your thigh and then a sharp pain on your foot as you’re drug down into the darkness and as you fight to free yourself you notice that you’ve unknowingly swam into the center of a starving school of sharks and they take turns gnawing off pieces of your flesh.

Your arms, back, legs, neck, face, chest and feet all shredded by the razor sharp teeth of sharks. The blood only attracts more sharks of different colors and shapes. All you can do is kick, punch and scream to keep your limbs intact then suddenly you feel sand beneath your feet, you’ve reached the shoreline and you craw with every ounce of strength you have left toward the abandoned lifeguard shack. Once you’re on land you look out at the ocean and the entire expanse of the water is teaming with sharks. You look down at your body and though in one piece has been ripped to shreds.

This is the most accurate description I can give of what it’s like to try to go public or expand globally without the proper game plan and consultants watching your back and helping you contemplate your chain of moves as you go forward. There is an entire industry out there that is just waiting for you to step off the path and into the shadows so they can get a piece of you. Wasted capital here, wasted capital there, it all adds up.

When taking your company public or planning a product or service expansion into outside geographic proximities why go it alone? Seek out qualified consultants that can navigate you through the shark infested waters so that you can achieve your goals quickly and with as few bumps in the road as possible.

Why Go Public – How To Raise Capital – Save Your Company Now

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

If you think economic conditions are tough now, you haven’t seen anything yet. Europe’s collapse is just getting started which will affect our exports, banking and real estate market all over again. Our nation’s current financial traction is only temporary and we still have one to three more cycles of down spiraling real estate market conditions to deal with.

Believe none of what you hear from politicians and half of what you see as to them it’s all just a sitcom entwined in smoke and mirrors. To your local government official you’re just a rat on a treadmill chasing after scraps from their table. Do you honestly think you matter to them? All they care about is votes, don’t be naive by thinking they ran for office because of social conviction.

You are just a vote on a ticket in a ballet box, nothing more. The two sectors of the market that have been hardest hit are small/medium size business due to lack of growth capital and shrinking client base and the employees of these companies who have lost their jobs because of cut backs. Being that most issues lie with the demise of the entrepreneur let’s take a closer look at the problems they face and how we can solve them.

Small business is the lifeblood to our nation’s economy. Our entrepreneurs feed an economy which once guzzled luxury items, technology and solutions that made our lives easier. With funding cuts from the top of the economic food chain (Fed to banks to entrepreneurs) there are no lines of credit to offset temporary losses which in turn creates substantial losses without the critical and timely rebound. Companies can’t grow because of the lack of expansion capital, lease options and other alternative financing mechanisms.

While your senator will stand and entertain questions at a press conference make no mistake you’re trapped in a spider filled casket in a forgotten crypt. Grim? Absolutely. Disgusting and despicable is more like it. Instead of promoting concepts that can empower business owners, politicians keep silent as we all slide into the tar pit in one communal involuntary suicide.

Here is the information that they are not telling you. Here is a solution to the problem of a bankrupt middle class and the ever shrinking small/medium size business. Our solution lies in two very simple words, “Private Capital”. There are solutions and you have power to change your fate.

Private capital comes in many forms but here we are going to talk about Regulation D Rule 506 which stemmed from the Securities Act of 1933 which is an SEC approved way of splitting your company up into organized shares and selling those shares to the public via public offering through private placement also referred to as a private placement memorandum. You can sell shares to accredited investors who believe in your business model. A PPM can be a pre IPO (otcbb) structure, long term investment with a certain exit strategy or you can pay dividends. There are many options, just pick one and move forward.

My personal favorite for helping qualified corporations raise capital and take control is using a PPM to raise a seed capital round and use the proceeds to fund an SEC audit, S1 Filing, 15c211 filing to FINRA approval and trading symbol disbursement. Yes, it is that easy to take your company public. Most companies won’t qualify for the NASDAQ or NYSE and you shouldn’t even consider the cesspool of the pink sheets but a wonderful platform that works great with the above and a solid investor relations strategy is the OTCBB (over the counter bulletin boards).

Once your company is public you can sell securities and cross collateralize your securities for a quick capital raise with minimal institutional banking intervention and drawbacks. Find a consultant who can take you through the process and can demonstrate solid comprehension of your business genre. Take control now!

How To Invest In Penny Stocks – Pre IPO Investing – How To Make Money With Penny Stocks

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

The internet and boiler-room stock promoters are constantly selling unsophisticated investors the dream of Penny Stock Elixirs and Alchemical shortcuts to Wealth. They ask you to make a few sacrifices here and there and in the end your dreams of massive liquidity, a butler pockets loaded with cash will come true.

The science of charlatanism and gaining a cult-like following has been a business in and of its self since the beginning of time. Followers of a cult and it’s figure head are blindly loyal and will recruit other members with unbridled enthusiasm and the group leader just sits there as the recipient of the profits initially promised to the followers.

Use the followers until they burn out and move on to the next flock of sheep. The above is the mentality of the penny stock solicitor so approach investment with eyes, ears and mind wide open with your critical faculty cranked on high. The good news is there is some truth to what the charlatans preach.

There can be gargantuan profits made in placing capital in OTCBB stock and NASDAQ and NYSE penny stock but you have to look at the whole picture. Things you should look at are (at a minimum): ‘C’ level executives and their professional pedigree, industry genre an company’s position within that market, strategic alliances, investor relations strategy to create the market and streamline promotion of stock, potential acquisitions and mergers, product and service globalization potential, web presence, ease of gathering company information and so on.

You shouldn’t day trade penny stock, contrary to what the Saturday morning infomercials tell you, you’ll almost always get burned. Instead, penny stock should be bought as early as possible. Pre public seed capital (pre IPO) investing is the best way to go if you are interested in getting involved with this type of investment.

It is not uncommon to have the opportunity to buy shares at as little as .10 cents with a public offering price estimated at .50 cents to $1.00+. this is where the real money is made. You can typically buy a combination of restricted and non restricted shares, just make sure that there is a selling shareholder offering in place and that your name is going directly on the S1 and you’ll typically be able to sell some of your shares right when the company goes public while retaining the balance of your shares for 6 to 12 months while the company builds traction in the market place.

Taking Company Public: Are You Sick Of Being The Governments Gimp?

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

As the unfortunate recipients of a bastardized economy whose immediate future is as grim as the past two years there is a massive economic shift. Banks are crumbling towers of cards and executives in charge of this so called ‘rebound’ effort are about as qualified as a blind, deaf, mute, quadriplegic trying to win the iron man. In short, at this rate we’re in big trouble.

How ca a global economy prosper when we have intellectual midgets at the helm as nothing more than marionettes dancing to strings attached to the fingers of bureaucratic madmen controlled by power, greed and the need to dominate? The answer in short, take the control out of their hands and put it in the hands of the people. Companies need to stop looking to the government and bailout legislation for assistance.

“What the government Giveth It Will Surely Taketh Away”. The government gives only to receive ten fold. Banks and institutional finance are under the thumb of the Federal Reserve, a private organization keeping the citizens of this country in debt with fractional reserve lending and FDIC criteria that turns well intentioned banks into armed henchmen.

The only way to step out and take control of our economic fate is to step out of the institutional mainstream and all things associated with the traditional ‘system’. The best way a company can do this is by going public. Taking your company public allows you to take control of your financial destiny and take advantage of the OTCBB (Over The Counter Bulletin Board), London Exchange and Frankfurt Exchange. The NASDAQ and NYSE are great but flawed by institutional over involvement.

Align yourself with globalization consultants that can take our mid size regional company and transform it into a well oiled, economically viable international powerhouse. Going public can offer you the financial means to eliminate the fragility that automatically transcends into your business model when held hostage to the institutional mainstream. You have a great product or service, you have customers, go public and then go global. Nothing is holding you back from there. Your future is bright! Now get out there and make it happen.
