Take A Company Public – S1 Attorneys – PCAOB Audits – Good Luck, You’re Going To Need it

Tuesday, August 10th, 2010

The undertaking of a public offering on the OTCBB, just as with the NYSE and NASDAQ can be tedious, strenuous, exhausting and an ongoing perpetuation of one failure after another until you just throw in the towel and call it quits; but it doesn’t have to be that way.

Going public can be rewarding, prosperous, empowering and the beginning of massive capitalization and international expansion. There are two things to remember when putting your ‘going public’ plans together. First: don’t be nave by thinking that you can do it yourself, you’ll certainly fail as this process has too many components and is infested with sewer rats that will climb on your back for a free ride just in case you make it. Second: be smart and hire an IPO Strategies Consultant. This type of business consultant is rare and difficult to find as they are in demand globally because of the streamlined manner in which they are able to take a company public.

Strategies consultants that specialize in pre public corporate strategies and structuring, IPO facilitation and post public investor relations planning and mergers and acquisitions. They’ll expedite the public offering while giving your company a powerful foundation conducive to hardcore domestic and global expansion.

The road to becoming a publicly traded company is littered with the carcasses of companies that either tried to complete the process on their own or corporation with the foresight to hire a consultant but battled the consultant on each portion of the process and added so much stress to the deal that the consultant threw in the towel and moved onto the next project.

Word to the wise, this is one industry that you, the inquisitive self taught or over educated doesn’t stand a chance. The intricacies of this industry are of such proportions that unless you are completely submerged in this business for years with 80 hour work weeks you won’t even crack the surface of what it takes to go public and stay public and grow through expansion with a solid trading volume to monetize your company’s securities to create expansion capital.

Find a consultant, step back, keep your cell phone hand and leave this to the professionals while you reap the rewards. You’ve earned it! Through your blood, sweat and tears you’ve built your company. You’ve created jobs, contributed to the economy, paid Uncle Sam his pound of flesh, you deserve to succeed. Use the process of going public to create wealth for your family, long term job stability for loyal and hard working employees and a product or service distribution that spans the globe.

Looking For An S1 Lawyer? Watch Your Back Jack

Saturday, July 31st, 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!

S1 Filing – Advantages Of Taking A Company Public – Global Expansion

Saturday, July 24th, 2010

Going public in the United States means you have three options NASDAQ, NYSE and the OTCBB.

The Pink Sheets aren’t even an option, what were you thinking. There are only a few companies outside of broker dealers that actually have the ability, expertise and contacts to take a company public and have it make, as opposed to break the company. Timing is everything with an IPO and just like with comedy, get that timing wrong and you’ve blown your chances at a crowd pleasing exit.

Unbelievably some companies try to go through this process on their own. The CEO or CFO will convince a nave board of directors that they’ve taken companies public before, the board of directors approves the process and before you know it the company is in the S1 stage and stuck and everything stops. Just now the company blew their chances of creating a powerful market position and they are demonstrating their vulnerabilities to their competitors who sit like gargoyles waiting to pounce on them when they are at their weakest points.

Think about aggressive buyouts, mergers, acquisitions and other involuntary exit strategies by companies taking desperate measures. Of course for the NASDAQ and NYSE you can go to the large Wall Street broker dealers to take your company through the process but what if you’re part of the other 99% of companies wanting to go public who don’t qualify to go public on these two exchanges?

Then, if you expect to eventually qualify you’ll need to go public on the OTCBB (over the counter bulletin board). The one and only firm that can facilitate this process quickly and without a hitch is the one and only Princeton Corporate Solutions with the master James Scott at the helm. This boutique firm in Philadelphia, PA is the be all and end all in IPO facilitation on the OTCBB. You can use other firms but why would you?

With the track record that this firm has why would you even consider using another outlet to take you through the process? Don’t kid yourself! You need consultants that do this day in and day out or you risk losing your company position and even your company. Stick with the experts on your offering, the life of your company could be depending on it.

S1 Filing – S1 Comments – Find The Right S1 Attorney

Saturday, July 17th, 2010

I wish I could say that I wasn’t writing this article from experience but that would be a lie. I wish I could say that chemistry is never an issue between the consultant, S1 attorney and newly elected board members but that would be nave.

The truth is some attorneys who perform great on some public offerings are an absolute nightmare on other transactions. Some board members with a gargantuan size portfolio of contacts are worth the aggravation on some deals but on others fall flat on their face as they try to take the whole company to the ground with them. The reality is qualifying an attorney for the process of an S1 filing goes far beyond whether they’ve got time and experience under their belt. You need to ask the more difficult questions that are almost impossible to test for such as, how do they react in stressful situations? Are they open to stepping outside of their comfort zone to engage in cutting edge filing strategies to speed up the offering process? Do they help with the fundraising? Are they able to refer a PCAOB auditor and a market maker to file the 15c211? These are things that need to be addressed with your S1 attorney but are difficult to actually test beforehand.

Each lawyer is different and all I can say is sit down with them and drill them with a million different questions from a multitude of angles to test their knowledge and their patience. Watch their facial expressions, hand gestures, eye and forehead shift. Look for a bouncing leg or foot and other nervous habits and what questions did you ask to trigger this nervous twitch?

The same techniques can be used for qualifying a board member. The only way to get the best idea of whether there is a fit is to push them to the brink during the interview?

Be careful with this as many qualified professionals could easily take this challenge as disrespect and they’ll walk so don’t be rude or arrogant but with a placid look on your face and a calm voice, drill them and drill them hard.

Many consultants in this industry, myself included had to learn this lesson the hard way and took a lot of time and effort to correct the mistake of bringing on the wrong individual for the solution we were seeking. This is an extremely high stress industry and the environment is constantly at 100 degrees.

Concentrate on being calm, forward thinking, compromising on some issues and uncompromising on others, write down 10 pages of questions and when you sit down with the candidate ask all those questions and other questions that come to mind during the meeting. Test them, push them and get the right person for the job.
