Navigating through the guardrails of SEC public company guidelines & requirements, necessitates accurate and timely communications: the bedrock of investor relations. However, without compelling, credible and creative storytelling, combined with pinpointed targeting and outreach to amass a captive audience, a fair and forward-looking valuation cannot be achieved.
I started IGNITION after a combined 20-year career in both corporate finance and investor relations (both in-house and at agencies) for hundreds of micro- to large-cap companies across the sector spectrum.
Partnership is at the core of what we do through our unique “outsourced in-house” model. We can immediately and seamlessly integrate into your team, having years of experience with a full range of styles, cultures and operating procedures.
With this approach, we guide private and public companies, regardless of stage, when it comes to better understanding your array of investors. By systematically bridging the misunderstanding gap - through purposeful cadence as well as clear and impactful KPIs, investors can digest and analyze your story, but most importantly, get excited about it and invest.
My experience includes companies that are public, have aspirations to go public or are in the process of going public, including in-depth knowledge of the unique challenges involved in reverse merger companies. I have also worked with many foreign issuers to tap into the growing investor demand for quality overseas emerging growth companies.
Whether acting as your IRO or partnering as an extension of your in-house IR, IGNITION makes tactical and strategic investor relations work easier by immediately and seamlessly integrating into your team with focused, hands-on attention, helping you convey something real and fun and inspiring in a truly cost-conscious manner.
