Taking Your Company Public: Beware of the Consultant with The Hard Sell

December 10th, 2009

Private Placement Memorandum authoring and the process of taking one’s company public are services that require extensive experience and the ability to look at a deal objectively and peripherally to evaluate all the angles to enhance the ability of the client to achieve funding in a timely manner.

Many times, when I’m hired to structure a company before funding, they will be under the impression that my evaluation is a mere formality and they are ready to go. Often I’m the bearer of bad news when I have to break it to the client that their company has more holes than Swiss cheese and 30 to 60 days away from starting the fund raising process.

They will often get a second and then third opinion and usually run into the same thing before they eventually find their way back to our firm. As they call around to consulting firms they perpetually experience the ‘hard sell’ by firms who ‘need’ the business because they lack the rewards and referrals that come with cultivating each client relationship because they take on and spit out deals so fast they hardly remember their client’s name during the transaction.

This mentality dominates the larger firms because of their gargantuan overhead while the boutique firms can take a more personal approach because they have a steady flow of business and referrals because they are not stressed about bringing in the next big deal so they can meet payroll and keep their lights on. The smaller companies that focus on turnaround consulting, private placement memorandum authoring, top tier business plan writing and taking companies public usually take a one on one approach to the consulting process and will rarely pressure clients to sign on because their phone is ringing off the hook with previous clients who want to hire them for the next stage in the evolution of their company’s growth.

This business is all about relationships. Ditch the consultant that applies the high pressure sales tactics and seek out the smaller, more personalized groups that don’t ‘need’ your business but will cultivate and value it.

DIY Publicity, Do It Yourself Free Advertising

November 22nd, 2009

Gaining genuine, long lasting publicity for your business, book, musical group or any other type of entity can be an expensive proposition when you have a firm doing it on your behalf. It can be time consuming and a technical nightmare as you have to be well rounded with the various high pr websites in the countless genres of online media so that your efforts reap true rewards.

People have found that It’s just too difficult to take on the vast process of publicity marketing themselves and have concluded to simply hire a company to take on this laborious task for them, but what if there was a way to do this on your own that made the process easier? Here are a few techniques that will get your publicity marketing campaign moving easily and quickly

First you need to use video, you can create a video with Camtasia, powerpoint or even the video camera you have on your phone. Make the video informative, solve problems for your clients, then upload it to YouTube. YouTube is the largest video traffic site online and will give you solid results. When you upload, use targeted, industry specific keywords to help target your viewers.

Second, author and distribute sizzling hot press releases. You can just go to Google and type in press release submission and find several sites that are high pr that you can submit to. A press release should spell out, without over selling, the unique aspects of your business to the public to raise brand awareness. Next, submit some hard hitting articles that talk about problems and solutions and useful techniques that customers of your industry would find helpful, then submit them to any of the multitude of online article directories, again, pay special attention to keywords as this is how your readers will find you.

Another strategic form of publicity marketing and branding are gently persuasive social and news bookmark submissions. Using bookmarking sites to get your name out there is a tremendous way to get attention and increase website traffic. You’ll create an enormous amount of back links to your site which will increase Google relativity for your site and make your brand and website more accessible to the public. These tactics will help you raise brand awareness and increase traffic quickly and they are pretty simple to facilitate. Use these techniques on a regular basis and you’ll see your brand awareness skyrocket in no time.

IPO and OTCBB Fundraisers Succeed Faster With Viral Marketing

November 22nd, 2009

Why do people go to the movies or ride roller-coasters or watch romantic films or comedies? Why do people seek out the temporary release of alcohol or pharmaceutical and illegal barbiturates? People long for that ancient connection with their emotions.

People need to ‘feel’ something, anything and as publicists and hype creators it’s our mission to toy with that emotion to trigger a response. We are trying to activate a reaction from a willing candidate. Man has proven over and over again that they will purchase anything so long as it touches on those emotional pressure points.

We make our decision to buy cars, houses and cloths all based on emotion. How does the ad or article make you feel when your emotions become entwined with this content? What elements are missing in the target consumer psyche and how can we fill that void while simultaneously branding our client’s product and calling the candidate to action?

We toy with the sadness, hopes, fears and aspirations for one important reason, to slowly pull the target market in on behalf of our client so that when they feel sad, hopeless, desperate or in need, our client’s ‘brand’ comes to mind as the automatic answer to all of these issues.

Publicity marketers must have a solid comprehension of the target market’s emotional element, what makes them happy, sad, stressed etc in order to reap the full rewards of a campaign.

The reader must pay close attention to the colors, voiceover tone, background music, video clip and image choice, vocabulary and on screen text with webmercials and take into consideration similar aspects when writing articles or creating ads.

These tactics lower the guard of the target which allows a message to be imbedded in their subconcious mind. This is done with music, film, political promotions and yes, even ads.

At the end of the day, the positive afteraffect is what keeps the client coming back and if the ballyhoo ingredients can cradle a sort of post hypnotic cue that calls a client to action, then the needs of the client are being met with branding and sale conversion and the emotional needs of the customer are being taken care of as well. This is one of the few times in life that there is truly a win/win relationship.

Take Your Company Public: How To Find a Consultant That Can Make The Process Fast and Easy

November 19th, 2009

So many companies dream of going public to raise massive amounts of capital, as set up for an exit strategy, to make acquisitions with stock and for many other reasons. While your intentions may be pure and with genuine motives, you’re entering shark infested waters of boiler rooms, crooked attorneys and underbelly consultants who have made careers off of taking well intentioned executives just like you for a 24 month roller-coaster ride while they take every penny you have as your company shrivels up like week old road kill.

Just and honest consultants in the ‘public offering’ industry are as rare as the illusive white elephant. This industry exists in a cesspool surrounded by rose gardens; from afar it looks amazing and an image of a dreamland but get up and close and the sludge and odor are enough to make you run and hide. So what do you look for in a consultant? The best consulting firms are the ’boutique firms’ with minimal overhead that keep a low profile and are made up of 3 or 4 ‘partner’ consultants.

These firms typically have the experience of working with the large consulting groups but for one reason or another have decided to leave and go out on their own. The great thing is, these small groups typically have massive contacts and process your entire public offering in-house. Offering a complete turn-key solution that is managed in-house offers a huge advantage because there is accountability and you can actually build a relationship with the people that are making your dream of a public offering come true.

These ’boutique’ consultants will usually stay on board as growth consultants for the life of the company in exchange for modest fees and a pre-IPO or pre-OTCBB equity position. The large firms will hack you out at the knees and gouge you with fees while they take massive amounts of equity in your company which takes away your bartering chip when you need to offer more stock to the public to raise capital.

The small firms will also work one on one with you to show you how to use your stock to grow through acquisition and other nifty ways to use stock to grow. Seek out the boutique consulting firm and save the attorney for spot audits. Hold on to your cash. Why pay outrageous fees to lawyers when you can pay 60% less with a small consulting firm that will add all the bells and whistles for free and actually get your stock trading, usually in half the time?

Take Your Company Public and Pass Due Diligence With a Good Publicist

November 19th, 2009

Here’s the deal, if find yourself paying your publicist to hit up radio, print media and television executives to give you a minute and insignificant slot in their barrage of media hodgepodge so you can go in, suck down your pride, look like an idiot to the masses then walk away with your tail tucked between your legs it’s time to wake up and experience the cutting edge hybrid publicity marketer and all the power that goes with it.

The truth is that the industries of the publicist and the advertising firm have merged into one, crystal clear beacon of light that has transformed the promotional industry forever. Publicity marketers are a very small and difficult to find group of online promotion guerillas that blast the internet with everything that the search engine craves and more so that your company comes up over and over again on the natural search results for industry specific keyword phrases that demand attention.

There are no spam or black hat methods at work. Publicity marketers grew up as personal computers became popular and were in college in the’90’s during the internet boom. These were the guys that kept companies moving after the tech crash and soon, their services became valuable to venture capital firms with IPOs to publicize, viral media to cater to the promotional needs of video game and film companies with a new hit and corporations that needed rapid reputation repair or solutions to a hostile competitor that was taking more than it’s share of a niche market.

The publicity marketer has the creative capacity to plunge his hands into the on the emotional programming of the consumer while simultaneously and gently cornering them in a way to trigger that internal buying mechanism that exists in the subconscious mind of everyone. Real publicity marketers can take any company, concept or brand and make it an online sensation in a very short time.

The publicity marketer is the new generation, web 2.0 promotional guru. If you’re still paying separate companies for your publicity and advertising needs, it’s time to track down a publicity marketer for one, ultra-powerful, turnkey solution that will start generating results immediately.

Take Your Company Public: How To Go Public Easily 100% of the Time

November 19th, 2009

There are many ways to use capital without using bank loans, lines of credit and other shady methods like shelf corps and bogus platform scams. If you are truly trying to raise capital for your company here are some simple breakdowns of your options with a quick definition for each one:

 PIPE: Private Investment In Public Equity this is used primarily by mutual funds and private investment firms where they buy discount stock in order to raise capital, there are two types of PIPEs traditional where common and preferred stock is issued at a set cap to raise money for the issuer and a structured pipe issues convertible debt.

 DPO: Direct Public Offering is when you sell equity shares directly to customers, suppliers and employees.

 PPM: Private Placement Memorandum is also known as an offering memorandum takes advantage of Regulation D rule exemptions 504, 505 and 506. This process came into existence with the’33 securities act and popularized in the late’80s, companies can raise money from the public via private placement; there is virtually zero interaction with the SEC after you file form d as long as you stay legal. (most popular form of fund raising).

 IPO: Initial Public Offering: extremely expensive, need SOX 404 audits, must have board of directors, quarterly financial reports to shareholders, report heavily to the SEC and 1 out of every 1000 companies that want an IPO actually qualify. I love participating in these but most companies just can’t qualify for one reason or the other.

 OTCBB: Over the Counter Bulletin Board is an electronic quote system that is the next best thing if you can’t go public via ipo, there is minimal red tape to start-ups and small businesses and is legitimized by the stringent ongoing reports to the SEC which keeps investor confidence high (these are extremely solid and I suggest this structure to companies when I am hired by their company or legal team as a consultant as a fast, easy way to raise big capital from the public otc)

 Pink Sheet: you can look at pink sheets as the Burger King, while the OTCBB is McDonald’s, they are competing otc mechanisms. Pinks sheets are commonly referred to as penny stock and notorious for ‘pump em’ and dump em’ controversies and a lot of crooked people are involved with this platform. This is not a long term process that will allow one’s company to grow, pink sheets companies are typically short lived but it is cheap to set up but not a professional structure that could be upgraded in time to an IPO.

 Reverse Merger: a group funds the filing and creation of a public shell, they then sell that shell to a company that wants to go public, the established company merges it’s entity into the public shell. The sellers retain around 30% equity after they charge an upfront fee of 300k to 1m. 99% of reverse mergers are successful with the merger, but unsuccessful to bring them to trade and the entity basically just fizzles out.

Taking your company public is actually quite simple and inexpensive when you have the right consultant putting the structure together for you. There are countless ways to raise capital quickly and easily. It’s important that you understand your options before you waste time entering into the red tape infested banking system for a loan.

November 11th, 2009

If you’re on the venture capital trail there’s no doubt you’ve heard the term that usually shuts most fund raising efforts down before they can actually begin, that term being ‘due diligence’.

Going Public? Viral Marketing Will Get You The Publicity You Need

November 8th, 2009

As a website publicist I’m always hearing about the latest and greatest way to get my client’s brand out to the public in an orderly yet expedient manner. Fly-by-night methods and organizations come and go, yet the original promotional concepts that yield that greatest results are still at the forefront of the publicity industry, they’ve just evolved and taken a different shape.

Catering to the mental triggers of the populace while weaving a web of information and post hypnotic cues through the cynical conscious minds to the unconscious faculty of legions of oblivious targets (oops! I mean ‘potential customers’) is still the name of the game. Television, the visual stimulus that fed exhausted, lackluster minds with a temporary, emotional escape from reality has been replaced by web-mercials and the fast pace of viral media.

The intellectuals that would gather facts on industry, politics and special interest concepts once supplied by the New Yorker and the New York Times is now replaced by the 24/7 information tornado of Web 2.0. Those colorful ads in Time and the Sunday paper have been overshadowed by interactive flash ads that cater to the senses of sight and sound. And of course the idiot radio DJ that would spit out grotesque and perverted one-liners while simultaneously converting the listeners mind matter to mush has been replaced by special interest audio and video Podcasts.

The actions and reactions of the general population have kept the same structure, but the adaptability and ability to absorb messages has evolved. When marketing to the masses the path to the decision making sector of the mind is still initiated with a single stimulus such as an image, sound or scent. When the attention is attracted, keep that initial stimuli active like the hypnotic dance of the cobra, then use the other senses to input messages for instant or future action, in most cases this action is a purchase.

Using radio and TV to promote a business on a shoestring or unlimited budget is like passing up a brand new luxury sedan for a 1985 Hyundai. These methods are out of date and should only be used as modest forms of passive branding while the heavy lifting of promotional branding and call to action publicity marketing should be done with online video, social and news bookmarking, press release distribution, blogging, unique article distribution, Podcasts and other innovative white-hat methods that cater to habits of modern man.

Why Take Your Company Public?

November 8th, 2009

There are several reasons why a company would decide to go public; here are some of the advantages. Liquidity is a popular reason for going public via OTCBB or IPO, many global lenders and private equity groups will lend against stock collateral. Private companies lose time jumping through hoops with various FICO driven line of credit and lending programs with outrageous interest rates while a public company can strategically offer stock for sale or collateral. Run a solid company with growth and a sea of content stock holders and you’ve got your own cash register to grow your company.

Another popular reason for going public is to offer stock options to key employees which creates and retains loyalty while reducing cost of compensation. There is no better way to have employees go the extra mile day in and day out than rewarding them with a piece of the company. Stock options are also a way to attract those prized executives that are in demand.

Having a public company allows massive buying power from the perspective of growth through acquisition. Find a company that is the perfect strategic alliance and buy them with company stock. This method of expansion has served the interests of top tier companies since Standard Oil.

What about those companies owned by an individual or a close knit group of entrepreneurs who are getting up there in age and need to start thinking about an exit strategy? Public companies demand higher sale prices and sell faster because of the flexibility of the structure. We could go on and on about the advantages of going public.

Start-up companies wishing to investigate this concept of fundraising you may want to consider the OTCBB, this is a solid and regulated formation to trade your stock publicly with stock holder confidence as opposed to a lesser trusted option called Pink Sheets. For corporations with some age and capital and IPO may be the best way to go, though this process is expensive and can take more than a year, it’s worth it for the right
