S1 Lawyer – S1 Attorney – Take Your Company Public The Right Way

Tuesday, August 10th, 2010

For companies wanting to go public the basic understanding is to find an S1 attorney that will look out for your best interest and make the process easy. But what you’re not thinking about is the sub-sector of predatory attorneys that just look at you as easy prey. They’ll jump into your company, distract you by confusing you with technical jargon, fast talking and stressful scenarios that could never happen and when you’re not looking they’ll carve out a nice fat piece of equity on top of their excessive fees that pile up as they rob you blind with their insularely fees.

Qualify your S1 lawyer the way you would a blind, deaf, mute, quadriplegic proctologist before you go in for surgery. The fact that they can do what you’ve read in their promotional material is possible but most likely won’t happen, not that it can’t happen it’s just they can’t make it happen. Got it?

Be wary of S1 attorneys that will try to confuse you and distract you from your original goal. Let’s say it was your goal to go public on the OTCBB, the attorney who wants to take you for a ride will distract you with statements geared towards far fetched issues to scare you into submitting to their, not so far off, actions of adding fees, slicing off equity and other things of this nature. A perfect example is an attorney who gets involved with the client’s PPM share price with oppressive authority. If you’re company has a valuation of $3m they are trying to tell you to sell shares pre public for $1.00 or so which is absolutely, completely unrealistic, especially when you look at existing in the post public arena. They will tell you that at .20 cents per share pre public your pre revenue company will never have a chance to get on the NASDAQ (NASDAQ should be the furthest thing from your mind at this stage as you should be focusing on your pre public share price and post public IR). If the predator S1 lawyer sees you’re organized and have a solid comprehension of the process they will take away your confidence in those around you to gain more dependence by you. They will tell you that you can’t pay your IR firm the way you’ve already pre negotiated or that they are dirty or whatever.

When it comes to the PCAOB audit they will absolutely insist on you using their guy even though he charges twice the amount of other firms that gave you a quote and you can rest assured that the markup is their commission for scaring you into using this firm.

At the end of the day the predatory S1 attorney will confuse you, up-sell, over charge, scare, belittle and whatever else they have to do to make sure that at the end of the day they can get away with charging and taking everything without having to deliver anything and it will be structured so that the blame falls on you for not fulfilling the obligations set on you by the attorney. Good luck out there!

Thursday, July 8th, 2010

When it’s the right time to go public and you’ve looked at the pros and cons from all angles, it’s time to move forward and structure the company so that you can have a corporation worthy of investment dollars. First look at your company structure.

Do you have a well pedigreed and economically seasoned CEO, CFO and COO? Is your board of directors composed of the best of the best that your industry has to offer? Do you have a secondary board of advisors to pick up the slack where needed? Do you have strategic alliances in place to make expansion easier via distribution access, cross promotion and other necessary processes that you’ll need in a post public setting?

What mechanism will you use to distribute shares for your pre public raise? Is your business plan a powerful, ultra effective strategy or is it a boilerplate template that every funding source has seen a dozen times before?

Next, have you brought on a consultant to analyze your company and check for leaks, perform a valuation and start the process of going public? Don’t be shortsighted by trying to do this on your own or listening to the wrong people. Unless you have a professional onboard to navigate you through the process of preparing and completing the going public process you’ll be doomed from the start.

Don’t look at getting a trading symbol from FINRA as the finish line as this is just the beginning of the battle. You need a presents now more than ever. Your consultant will help you identify PR and expansion worthy mergers and acquisitions while simultaneously strategizing with investor relations agencies for the most impact at the best price.

Going public and achieving a symbol is the beginning of a whole new set of opportunities to grow your company in ways that you could never have imagined but it’s also a massive responsibility that can sink your company faster than quicksand. Be prepared for the process. Hire a consultant and place the best people in positions around you and you’ll be able to move forward with the wind at your back.

Advantages Of Taking Company Public – Take My Company Public

Thursday, July 8th, 2010

When the principles of a company make the decision to go public there are many things to take into consideration. First and foremost, trying to wade through the pariah infested waters of the OTCBB, Investor Relations and strategic growth strategies on your own is a guaranteed suicide mission and you’ll fail. Find a consultant who understands your business and has the contacts to create a turnkey solution to take you from public to private and all the other necessities you’re company is going to need to make it.

As part of your consultant pre qualifications here are the niches you’re the consultant absolutely must be well versed in order for your company to succeed with the public offering and a solid trading volume post public. Better yet, here is what you’re going to need so you can measure your questions against this list when qualifying the consultants to see who is the best fit.

First you’re company will need structuring. What I mean by structuring is that you’ll need to put a sturdy skeletal structure together to carry around your corporate bag of bones, an iron clad skeletal structure would consist of: board of directors with esteemed educational and professional pedigrees and proven track records for assisting companies in your particular genre with getting to the next level from the level your company is currently at pre public. You also need powerful strategic alliances that will increase your name recognition and overall market awareness by affiliations with inter-industry powerhouses. Use strategic partners for promotion, expansion, resellers, referrals, service and product brokering, name recognition, and more.

Talk to your accountant about your corporate structure. Delaware C corporations are a sturdy home state for public companies as the states statutes go back to the original 13 colonies and offer optimal protection and case law to support a growing public company. Some oversees companies prefer Nevada for their quick fix to the foreign owned company problem but ask your accountant and attorney to give you the pros and cons. Statutory domicile will be the advantage to the home of your corporation but if you are operating in another state you’ll still need to file locally while the state of incorporation can offer legislative support from previous case law history. Don’t believe that you won’t have to pay taxes if you incorporate in Nevada, this simply isn’t the case. Read up on this and then get the real deal from your attorney.

Every public company needs solid CEO, CFO, COO, Board of directors, Board of Advisors, Strategic Partnerships to start off. Now, when you have the above you need to start working on monetize-able purchase orders and offering net terms to your clients, in other words start building your book of business aggressively by offering credit terms. This will make you a stronger company and when investors see your mountain of purchase orders they’ll be impressed and will be more apt to invest. General signed contracts will typically have too many contingencies to have an impact as contracts are not very enforceable whereas purchase orders are like currency and can be monetized if your company finds itself in a crunch. This shows investors that you’re prepared for the ups and downs ahead.

Now after you’ve gone through the s1 comments with the SEC and the 15c211 has been filed by a market maker with FINRA, let’s assume you have your trading symbol and you’re ready to start selling shares. You are going to need a powerful, expensive, rock solid investor relations and market build strategy. Don’t use a pump and dump house as if you do so you will never recuperate. Instead your IR strategy should include: phone room support for announcing your company to industry insiders to create awareness (not selling stock), solid, opt-in email alerts to seasoned, accredited investors looking for stock in your industry, press releases should go out to announce everything from a new executive hire to an new contract to a new strategic partner and anything else that will give you a reason to notify the public on your company’s growth. Expert panel reviews for your C level executives to talk about the industry as an expert insider promote the company to the masses where they will get to see first hand the massive knowledge you possess about your industry which may prompt listeners to investigate your stock for a potential purchase. Don’t forget about viral publicity through high pr video, social bookmarks, blog entry, articles and the prototypical twitter, facebook, myspace and Linkedin properties.

Going public should be part of an overall strategy for expansion as opposed to having a go to just ‘go public’ to raise money.
