Our IPO begins next month. Does anyone have any tips/ideas on getting broker or retail Investor interest?
We finished the website, investordeck and secured 30% of the ipo funding through our own networks as well as successfully raised 2 prior rounds to meet all the regulatory/exchange requirements.
Thinking about holding a roadshow event(virtual) for interested investors alongside the normal cold calling/LinkedIn outreach.
We also want to create enough buzz during the ipo that people may put our stock on their watchlist once we start trading.
You’re talking about soliciting investors for an IPO on a public forum, where members may be from a different jurisdiction than your own. This is one of the more highly regulated things you can do as an issuer (especially in the US). I highly recommend you talk to your bankers and attorneys before you get into any details that could completely derail what may be a material liquidity event for you, your coworkers, and your existing investors.
