The dream of taking one’s company public is all too often unrealized when a shell merger or reverse merger concept is used. I say concept because this describes a general tactic as opposed to a strategy personified by a direct registration or S1 filing.
Shortcuts have no place in a public offering as it lacks the results sought by entrepreneurs and demanded by investors and shareholders. Shells for mergers are typically dogs infested with microscopic flees, the struggle for volume and investor retention is constant and you’ll never have the full legitimacy of an S1 as the previous owners organizational baggage will constantly hinder your development as a public entity as the weight of skeletons in the closet will always outweigh your efforts, thus eliminating the results of IR and other promotional tactics for stock traction in the marketplace.
Going public doesn’t have to be painful, all you need is a game plan and experienced agents working on your behalf. If you’re broke get a loan, don’t attempt a public offering. If your company has a proven concept and solid net revenues then going public may be just the fundraising tool you’ve been looking for.

You’ll need several things in order to go public properly; the least of these is: an S1 attorney, market maker, investor relations strategist/facilitator, solid board of directors, professional and well pedigreed CEO and CFO (or proven controller) and ongoing consultants for mergers and acquisition identification, research and facilitation (don’t think you can grow your public entity organically).
Sure a legitimate public offering via S1 takes a little longer but it’s required for a viable and prosperous public lifespan. The difference between going public via S1 and Shell Merger is as blatant as marrying the prom queen and marrying a corpse sure a shell has skin and bones but wouldn’t it be great to have a pulse? Don’t sell yourself short. Go public the right way!

The undertaking of a corporate start-up is as American as apple pie and denim jeans. Start-ups come and go like the tide but for a very small, in the know group of beneficiaries; they can attribute their successes to a group of five power-brokers that are responsible for some of the most earth shattering mergers, political movements and corporate turnarounds in modern economic history.
These specialists offer the upper echelon solutions and bedlam tactics that can disrupt entire economies, influence legislation and make hand puppets of any lobby or special interest group of their choosing. The weight that they bring to pull off such crushing power plays is a track record of secretive and innovative strategies of crisis management via chaos induction, contacts that elevate beyond presidential to the global economic and institutional movers and shakers that influence everything we do. Call them the Illuminati or call them our saviors, one thing that can’t be denied is the obscene intellectual level and macro effect that they wield like psychological hand grenades.
One of the youngest in this ensemble of globalization demigods is James Scott with a small, virtually invisible boutique consulting firm called Princeton Corporate Solutions. With a client roster populated by past and present presidents, Kings, Queens, global governmental elites and corporations that shape our future economy his skill set is both extremely diverse and all together confusing; that is unless you can see the bigger picture of what it takes to spin scheming webs in the ears of those who you and I perceive as the controllers who are, in reality controlled by this minute group of chaos strategist.
What I’ve seen is both spooky and shocking. The eclectic combination of political and economic strategies and blanketing influence in the arsenal of James Scott would lead one to think of all the conspiracies of on the web and Saturday morning secret society episodes on the SiFi channel. Could it be true that the world is actually controlled by a handful of men sitting in a room in Switzerland playing with us like gods and overlords calculating our every move and setting up roadblocks to guide us like sheep to the slaughter? When I think of James Scott and his small group of colleagues and power-brokers I am both in awe and disgust. Being a 34 year old with no traceable background (actually no one even knows what country this guy is even from, rumor has it he’s German but grew up in the United States) or political/corporate mentors for this rapid assimilation into the who’s who in international econo-political elite, I am beginning to believe that reptilians control our planet (obviously, that’s a joke, but how does someone come out of nowhere and become one of the most commanding strategist on the face of the planet with the contacts to overturn legislation and actual governmental elections not to mention taking a company that has never been on the map and making them the face to an industry like he’s done so many times.
And after the awe comes the anger and frustration when I think about the question of ‘how much money and power does a person need to be content and from where this twisted and almost sickening obsession with power and influence stem from?’ When you acknowledge the reality that there are invisible hands that dictate the positioning of political movements and economic chaos, success and failure and all the in-between it is a combination of liberating and all together frustrating. Strangely liberating in the sense that one is led to feel as if the weight of the actual ability to influence is taken off one’s shoulders as the ultimately have no real effect or say in the fate of their future while this is frustrating because it is human nature to feel the need to control the environment around them. I have studied this man, his company and the organizations that he works with and again am angered by the obscene control that one man can have over an international population. I am constantly steaming with emotional rage when I research these back room, closed door meetings where in an hour an agenda is set that will affect my children’s future, my life and the lives of those around me. What gives them the right? How does this happen where we lose control so fast with no fight from the public?
Part of me wants to give up and throw in the towel, the other part of me longs to be part of this illuminated assemblage of those who have stepped up to take control and bring a structure that unites the political and economic elite in today’s ever changing domain. So many times I’ve found myself sitting down to put together an article exposing this Illuminati group as puppet masters, evil doers and all together self-appointed gods of men but when this emotion driven ’cause’ is interrupted with the reality that these men are the oversight for out of control, power hungry political groups and econo-corporate monopoly junkies I can’t pick a position to guide the tone of the article.
We are angered by the power and influence that these men have over us but seriously, where would we be without them? Where would our economy be without men to step in with the instant legislative control to keep economies moving or to keep one particular political organization from turning our country into a principality controlled by a dictator? At the end of the day I think my real desire is to be part of the process and to be the overseer of the overseers and it all comes down to ‘control’. Isn’t that really what you want? This article will be the first of many as I am able to accumulate more documentation and facts on these organizations that tower over us from on high. Stay tuned…

The objective of today’s CEO is survival; survival in terms of enterprise position. The CEO has to pick up the shattered remnants left behind by the lies and failures of elected officials and institutions. Today’s senior executive needs to be a congressman, judge, mayor and priest all rolled up into one. The livelihood of one’s employees/constituency depends on the expansion tactics, emotional stamina, intellectual foresight and willingness to enter into an economic cage brawl to protect the company, shareholders and employees that depend on the entity’s survival for monetary sustenance.
Surround yourself with the most proven advisers you can find as you expand and go public. Recruit guerrilla networking maniacs to set up strategic alliances to grow your company into new areas. Expand when competitors expect you to roll up and die. Keep in touch with shareholders. Communicate with newsletters, email, press release and via expert panel interviews on TV and radio.
Step up and take your position at the apex of the influence pyramid of your industry by demonstrating your expert status with podcasts, ipod and ipad information applications, webinars and a solid blog. Give the market what it wants, free information. Make ‘how to’ videos, write informative articles. Educate the public and lead them to your company for facilitation. Always promise low and deliver in a way that is beyond the expectations of the customer and shareholder.

In every environment there are leaders and followers. The leaders will each have a flock. Do your research and initiate communication with these shepherds. Show them the advantages to coming down your path and the rest will take care of itself. Win/win relationships always yield possibilities for capitalization.
Seek out board or advisory positions with inter-industry entities and set up powerful alliances where you can share the weight of publicity and merge distribution channels. Get to know your legislative representation. Find out what bills they are sponsoring and co-sponsoring and offer expert input and cooperation for legislation having to do with your industry. Once you’ve achieved a relationship or mention in a bill, publicize it. Become the face to a movement.
Lastly, do some good! Get involved at the grass roots level and change people’s lives. Volunteer at a soup kitchen, put together a company scholarship to help hardworking seniors go to college, coordinate with your employees to volunteer at nonprofit events and of course you’ll put this interaction through the regular publicity channels to set the standard for your locality as well as your industry.
People no longer believe in their congressman, senator, president or prime minister. These positions are filled by do nothing power enthusiasts. C-level executives step up and step forward. The road will be difficult and challenging to navigate but in these times we need leaders who see the bigger picture and are willing to carry the torch and lead.

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.

So many companies make gargantuan mistakes that are irreversible when it comes to fund-raising. Whether you’re taking a company public, finding an attorney to file your S1 or using a consultant to write a Private Placement Memorandum to raise capital; you need to know that you are a tantalizing snack for industry wolves. Companies seeking the above services with ill-informed executive decision makers often fall prey to predatory consultants who have no intention and couldn’t fulfill the services they are being hired for even if they wanted to. Upstarts and fast talkers who call themselves ‘business consultants’ are usually nothing more than resellers of a service who is a boilerplate, template driven organization without the contacts or know-how to facilitate an IPO, S1 or PPM.
You’ll be pulled in by their promise of delivery and via technical jargon they’ll impress you with their grasp of the technical intricacies and use of terminology that seems so polished and refined but buyer beware; 9 out of every 10 consultants that I’ve come across don’t know the difference between a reverse merger and a direct filing or regulation d rule 504 and regulation d rule 506 and even worse new or wannabe s1 facilitators will often confuse a DPO and an IPO and in the end the client, who doesn’t know what questions to ask, is left with a structure they can’t capitalize.
The later is true! A few months back my schedule was completely booked and there was an organization that needed to go public. They were within a 3 mile radius of a lawyer that had been calling me for months to get project referrals so I referred this IPO transaction to her in hopes that she would take care of the client, next thing I know she has the client convinced that a DPO is the best route and authored the PPM accordingly.
It’s absolutely ridiculous. If you’re looking for a real consultant who can actually come through with the above solutions or expansion strategies stay away from the pushy ‘sales’ oriented organization. You almost want a consultant that you have to call 3 times to get on the phone and then have them talk you out of moving forward. They are testing you and your dedication to your company and project.
Stay away from ‘broker’ types who ‘love’ your business and don’t or can’t poke holes in your corporate structure, expansion strategy, board of directors or other elements to your business. On another note, walk away from those who try to disguise their true lack of comprehension with technical talk.
They are just trying to distract you from the fact that they don’t have a clue as to what they are doing. There are so many distraction techniques.
The best consultants start out with, “OK, tell me about your business and what are you trying to accomplish”? They’ll ask about your ‘C’ level executives, product and service intricacies, marketing plan, three year projections, strategic alliances in place, board of directors and more. Your response to these questions will help the strategist formulate a plan to set up a structure that works.

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.
