Are you a business owner raising capital with a Regulation D Rule exemption (504, 505 or 506) also referred to as a Private Placement Memorandum, PPM or Offering Memorandum? If you are using this mechanism to raise capital then you’ll, no doubt, have to have a solid comprehension of the most distinct and important part of the Private Placement Memorandum referred to as the ‘Offering Circular’.

When your consultant or attorney is asking you for details on everything from business location to management, from dividends to risk details, you need to make sure that this information is complete and accurate. You’ll need to audit the documents after they are completed. A solid Offering Circular has kept countless companies from being sued by investors that didn’t get the investment return they were anticipating.

While the business plan is meant to grab the initial attention of the investor or funding source, the Offering Memorandum is meant to spell out the down and dirty details of the venture so that you are protected from lawsuits down the road, while simultaneously exposing the various ins and outs of your venture to give a ‘reality check’ to the investor before they hand over the cash.

The offering circular needs to be powerful yet very compact without the redundancies of using space to say the same things over and over again to pull the investors attention from the negative to the potential profit margins or management’s impressive pedigree. With all this said, yes it’s true the offering circular is one of the parts of a PPM spells out the technical aspects of the enterprise with a focus on inherent risk of investing but this can be done in a balanced way to also demonstrate the positive aspects of your venture by giving solid descriptions of your management team and, in place, distribution centers and contracts in place ready for capitalization.

When authoring the offering circular demonstrate the risks with a well balanced demonstration of the system in place to overcome these risks and dominate your market niche.

Real estate investors bird-dogs are constantly on the lookout for innovative ways to raise the capital needed to get the job done. Lack of funds to the real estate investor or rehabber is like an asthmatic without an inhaler, it’s a near impossible existence.

Access to cash is king for the investor and sadly this need is often like the scent of blood to the wolves as hard money lenders and greedy cash rich investors will lend to the real estate investor for such a high interest rate, the real estate investor’s profits evaporate before they can materialize. It’s a depressing reality to be faced with when months of hard work in bird dogging and going through the ups and downs of purchasing a property with decent profit margins results in actually owing money at the end of the transaction.

With all this said, there is good news. Imagine the ability to raise massive amounts of capital without dealing with the red tape of banks or the greed of hard money lenders. This solution is so powerful that it can transform your real estate investing business overnight. This process allows you to raise unlimited amounts of capital fast and easy.

This process is a Real Estate Private Placement Memorandum which is a PPM engineered to cater to the needs of a real estate investment firm while simultaneously helping the investor raise capital within the guidelines set forth by the SEC. There are few other structures available that can help one raise capital in such a rapid and streamline manner.

If you are involved in any level of real estate rehabbing or investing look into getting set up with a real estate private placement memorandum to put your business on steroids. It is easy to raise capital for these structures and will help you grow your business as large as you want it, quickly!

Entrepreneurs are being turned onto Regulation D in droves. Regulation D Rule 504, 505 and 506 allow companies a more lenient fund raising process than those who choose to go public by other means. In the past year I’ve seen more PPM consultants pop up on the internet than ever before and I have to admit I’m concerned. As a veteran in this field I’ve seen it all, now we have a legion of self proclaimed Reg. D gurus who buy templates, add some text and tell their clients that they are delivering a customized offering memorandum; here’s where things go bad and a difficult situation gets even worse. You have this worthless document, now what?

You need to gain the confidence and capital of accredited investors without soliciting as dictated in Regulation D Rule 502c. Now you have a worthless document that you can’t solicit investment capital for (which your guru consultant never told you but took your cash anyway) so how are you suppose to raise funds for your company? First, you’ll find that you’ll eventually need to make your way to an actual PPM author, not a broker so that you can get a PPM that protects you from lawsuits and gives the investor a real breakdown of the upside and downside of your business.

Next you’ll need to find a “Investor Finder”, yes this is an actual term for an individual or corporate entity that is completely submerged in the accredited investor realm and is able to match your opportunity with friends that he/she has in their database of real, accredited investors. This is the second half of the PPM equation.

Don’t kid yourself and don’t allow yourself to be lied to; you’re going to need a seasoned professional to help introduce you to investors that have the capital to help you get to where you need to be. Friends, family and employees will commit to investing in your company until your PPM is completed and it’s time to make good on their commitment; all of a sudden little Johnny needs braces and Sally is in the hospital with pneumonia, this happens all the time. Now what? With a real Private Placement Memorandum and a solid Investor Finder you’re problems are basically over. Investigate where the author and I.F. stand in the Internet public domain and after you find a company that meets your needs, get moving and start raising capital.

The internet tells all when it comes to reputations, you’ll be able to tell the difference between a seasoned veteran and a startup consultant after on Google Search and a phone call. A PPM can make raising capital quick and easy if you have the right firm in your corner.

OK, you’re ready to take your company to the next level and your CFO and legal counsel have advised you to go public to raise capital as well as to retain some of those prize employees with stock options and to bait that new sales executive with a signing bonus made up of stock options. You’ve looked into everything from pink sheets to reverse mergers to OTCBB to IPO and you have come to the conclusion you’re going to need to take on investors so that you can afford to follow through with your plan. If you’re lacking the funds to dive right in and start creating your public structure, here is a way that just about any business can afford to go public.

First, get a real business plan. Your business plan needs to sizzle and reel in the investor and clearly paint a picture of your vision to the investor and their advisors. Next, you’ll want to raise an initial round of cash quickly so that you can afford to take your company public without hindering your current company structure with additional ancillary costs. You’re going to need something fast and affective; you should consider having a professionally authored private placement memorandum put together for your company.

If you are trying to go public via OTCBB a Regulation D Rule 504 exemption will suffice, if you are trying to achieve an IPO you’ll need to go with a Regulation D Rule 505 exemption (pink sheets and reverse mergers into shell corps are not very successful in immediate and long term success so I would suggest you stay away from these structures). Build into the PPM verbiage that you are raising an initial round of capital that will be used to take your company public. When savvy investors see that they are investing in a real, viable pre-IPO or pre-OTCBB formation you will see investors climbing out of the woodwork to give you cash if your business concept is sound.

Next you hire the consultants (usually the same firm that wrote your PPM) to start the process of taking you public. On the PPM your Mini/Maxi should allow you to use capital almost immediately to get the ball rolling on your public company. You can count on a solid OTCBB going for between $75k and $250k and an IPO going for $1M+ so have your PPM written accordingly. If you follow the path set forth above you will notice something extraordinary.

The only out of pocket expense you had was for your Private Placement Memorandum (and your business plan if you didn’t have one) and 100% of the capital needed to go public was supplied by greedy investors who are excited to invest because of the quick payoff of their investment when you go public. This process means you can literally take your company public for less than $5,000 (the typical cost of a strategic Private Placement Memorandum. This is a simple, strategic and inexpensive way to get the capital you need for your company quickly, without using your limited financial resources in the process.

Take Your Company Public, Pump That Stock, Promote On the Necessary Element of Emotion

Whether you are a small business or a large global corporation the need for strong publicity is a constant necessity for branding, direct marketing and lead generation. Publicists have been spoiled throughout the years by sending out pitch letters to radio shows, television news corporations and print media to put out a blurb about their client. These little blurbs usually give a minor jump in the pulse of an otherwise dead publicity campaign but the publicist feels that if they got you some coverage, they did their job, but now the game of publicity has changed.

The publicist profession has converged with the advertising agency to create a hybrid, one stop shop, ultra powerful, rapid response type of promotion now referred to as ‘Publicity Marketing’. These consultants offer a cost effective, guerilla marketing approach that includes everything a business needs in one turnkey solution. Direct response, publicity campaigns, branding and other genres of targeted promotion are offered in an all inclusive service that any business can afford.

Now as publicity marketing has carved out a major chunk of the business promotion market place it’s forcing the evolution of marketing once again with the 1960’s mentality of ‘emotions branding’. A good publicity marketing company will take a powerful marketing campaign and add jet fuel to the process by infusing the element of emotion to break through and grab hold of the subconscious mind where the most powerful messages are stored in the target candidate’s mind and when they are ready to buy and automatic switch is flicked on and your brand takes precedence in their mind. The most experienced publicity marketers are able to trigger the ‘buy now’ button to induce sales and this entire process revolves around piercing through the conscious, judgmental and critical part of the mind and going right to the subconscious mind to store messages to promote your brand.

These messages are stored by using various colors, terms, word positioning, cornering and gently bombarding the candidate with your message until your brand becomes one with your industry terms. The publicity marketer must barrage the candidate with more than just a brand name but a solution to, but not limited to their direct need for your service. It doesn’t matter if your selling widgets or motor oil, you must demonstrate how your brand will solve any issue they are currently struggling with, whether it’s a gloomy day, they’re stuck in traffic, their spouse is ignoring them, whatever, how is your brand going to pass through that critical faculty of the conscious mind and sooth their being with an overwhelming state of contentment?

More than likely your product or service can’t do this on it’s own, but a good publicity marketing company will know exactly what nerves to touch so that your brand becomes a warm blanket and a soothing cup of tea on a stormy night. Make your brand the one stop cure for the clients emotional ailment and you’ve got them!
