CEO Executive Recruiters – CEO Headhunters – Find The Talent And Get The Job

When my firm goes into a privately held corporation to create strategies for expansion and a solid foundation before initiating the ‘go public’ process the first thing we do is analyze the CEO,CFO and COO professional pedigree and many times the current executives need to step back and allow us to bring in professional ‘C’ level management so that the company can go public, attract investment dollars from accredited and institutional money sources.
To save time we’ll go over the CEO position. This executive will be the public face to the company. They need to remain calm under pressure, respond quickly to critical questions and have a contact portfolio that could choke Godzilla. Within this contact base he/she must be able to create strategic alliances to grow the company’s presence domestically and internationally, take the leadership role to set up pre and post public financial strategies with the CFO and Board of Directors, identify and facilitate acquisitions and mergers to cultivate growth, engage the public via TV, radio and public forums as an industry expert to brand his name, the company name and the trading symbol.
An executive prime for this position will have ample publicity contacts for crisis management and getting the ‘good word’ out about the company’s financial position, new service/product, latest acquisition, newest big contract or distribution source or anything that could trigger trading volume with the stock.
At the end of the day if the company isn’t growing steadily and efficiently and if the company stock isn’t trading at a volume that allows the company to capitalize off of its position, the blame falls on the shoulders of the CEO.
Using the above to initiate the evaluation process of your CEO is a good place to start if you are getting ready to go public or if you are currently public and struggling to grow.

It’s the same with recruiters; if you’re available and eager then you are less desirable of a marketable asset but if you have published work all over the place, how to videos plastered on the web and you are intricately involved with the upper echelon power base in your industry niche, the key element becomes having massive visibility, and the reputation for being seen with the who’s who in the industry.
Get your articles published in industry journals and the newspaper. Make yourself available to news affiliates as an industry expert and do the same with radio. Consult for free with industry blogs and websites with high traffic and PR value. Work out a publicity deal in exchange for your efforts.
Have an aura of mystery about you. Don’t put personal information on social media sites; only use the internet for professional self promotion. What will begin to happen is first you’ll be asked to advise on transactions such as private company restructuring, then companies in the process of going public, then you’ll be lobbied for advisory board positions with public companies.
After you’ve proven yourself as an active and solid adviser and your name is associated with successful transactions you’ll begin to get the opportunity to serve on board of directors for public companies starting on the OTCBB and eventually the NASDAQ and NYSE.

Filed under Education
Listen carefully because this is the truth that no one wants you to know.Whether you’re a public or private company, expansion should always be at the forefront of your mind. The key to domestic and international expansion is strategic partnerships and publicity. The element of each of these mandatory prerequisites is the almighty contact, nothing happens without them. There is nothing like making a call, giving a quick pitch to a friend and helping them see the light and discovering miraculously that your company is the answer to their market demand, there you go, that’s your first strategic alliance, the first of many.
Facilitating the most effective expansion strategies will typically find success with the consultant with the most contacts. Don’t try to do this yourself; if you had the contacts needed for this process you’d have used them by now, no offense.
Bring in someone fresh. Bring in a strategies consultant that deals globally on a daily basis with industries in all spheres including public, private and governmental, east and west.
The economic power a company can achieve with just a month or two of services from a true strategies consultant can completely transform your existing and future entity’s existence.
Imagine the power in massive globalization and introductions to powerful CEOs, COOs and CFOs and shareholders and other decision makers in industries that are inter-reliant and just click.
A strategies consultant or consulting firm can give you in a month what your sales force couldn’t give you in a year, expedient and grand expansion in all geographic localities at a fraction of the cost.
Think about it! The same way special interest groups use lobbyists, you can use a strategies firm. Its how all the big guys are doing it. Sometimes the smallest moves make all the difference.

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
July 17, 2010 by James Scott
Filed under Legal
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 – S1 Comments – Find The Right S1 Attorney
July 17, 2010 by James Scott
Filed under Finance
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.

How To Go Public: Good Luck, You’re Going To Need It
July 13, 2010 by James Scott

Taking a company public has multiple intricacies. I get calls and emails daily from people who want a quote for taking their company public and I respond the same way each time, “No Thanks and good luck, you’re going to need it if this is how you’re approaching the process of going public”. Business owners who are seeking a ‘competitive quote’ from a consultant to take them public are asking for trouble and just begging to attract the wolves. Its shocking how many startup consultants are crouched over in darkened alleyways waiting to pounce on unsuspecting entrepreneurs and take their money and deliver absolutely nothing.
If you want to find a consultant worth their weight in salt you need to take the approach of general evaluation using targeted questions to find out if they are truly qualified to take your company to the next level. First and most basic, ask them if they are offering a turn-key public offering service, meaning do they participate in everything from soup to nuts including but not limited to: S1 filing and comments completion for SEC approval and market maker designation and 15c211 filing with FINRA to obtain symbol.
Think of this as the stuffing between the OREO cookies. Now you need to qualify them for their pre public and post public solutions. Pre public you need to make sure they will assist you with corporate structuring, expansion strategies, board of adviser selection, board of director election, executive pedigree evaluation for a public company, corporate and executive publicity generation using traditional means of radio and TV expert panel participation and viral publicity branding.
Your post public strategy is crucial and should be set in motion pre public so that you can hit the public market full throttle from the onset of your public offering. Post public strategies should entail a vast and in-depth investor relations strategy using stock alerts, press releases, promotion to market makers and other advisers, TV and radio interviews, article publishing and growth through acquisition just to name a few strategies.
You shouldn’t come out of the gate and lead the consultant to answer with the above information but target your questions so that they are general enough so that the consultant gives you their pre customized, boilerplate template strategy.
Going public can be extremely rewarding if done properly. Don’t try to do this on your own. Find qualified professionals to take you through the process in a structured and orderly manner.

The Art Of Executive Interrogation: How To Hire The Right Executive Every Time
July 13, 2010 by James Scott
Filed under Insurance
If you are taking your company public, expanding your corporation, doing in house cleanup to get rid of dead weight or just filling a C level or VP level position at your company your hiring method should be clear, concise and strategic. You need to take into consideration every intricacy that the individual being interviewed has to be exposed. You need to pay attention to what is said, not said, gestures, verbal intonations and the overall presence of the individual. Here are a few things to take into consideration when hiring an executive. These are elements outside of the resume.
First look at the obvious. Evaluate the overall attire of the individual pay attention to his suit, dress shirt, tie and dress shoes and even the shoe laces. Are his suit, shirt and tie crisp, conservative and pressed? Are his shoes shined, scuff free and are his shoe laces in good condition? When he crosses his legs and his socks are exposed what is the condition of his socks? These things may seem artificial, pretentious and pointless but keep in mind, you are hiring the appearance of the individual as well and most times the clothing condition and selection tell us a lot about the subconscious activity and mindset of the individual. Do they pay close attention to detail? Do they have a clean presence? These things are ‘tells’ every time the executive stands before a client or panel.
Next the interview, obviously you’ve gone over their resume and checked references before you even bring them in for a serious interview so let’s go past the general inquires that go along with an executive interview. You need to evaluate their intellectual and emotional fitness by getting right to the point. How much do they know about your company? Finding out how much they’ve researched the company will demonstrate their level of motivation in becoming part of the team with a focus on contribution. The strongest candidate will come into an interview ready to define their role and express the realities of what they bring to the table in the form of contacts and intellectual capital.
Ask them, in their own words, from their own research, where they see the company in 5 years with them in a leadership position. Ask them to give an example of 5 to 10 strategic alliances they have planned for the company and what that will contribute to the bottom line of the company. What expansion experience do they have? Ask them what makes a company in your position better or worse for being public or private and have them elaborate. Ask them to critique the top executives of the company and how they would reorganize the company if they had their way. Get past the artificial nature of educational pedigree and ask them about their professional pedigree and how it has prepared them to join your corporate team.
Now during this process pay close attention to their physical gestures and take notes. As you’re asking them questions look for their subconscious movements that they are using to communicate. Look for gestures that demonstrate confidence, arrogance, insecurity. Are they sitting back in their chair when they are talking (if so they are too comfortable, a qualified executive will be sitting up straight without letting his back rest on the chair, you on the other hand should be relaxed and sitting back). Are their legs crossed? Are they using their hands? Is their forehead crinkled or calm? Are they making use of a strong vocabulary that can strengthen their presentation etc?
Hiring the proper executive for a specific role in the company can be challenging but using the process above to help weed through the poor candidates will help you in securing the perfect candidate.

Taking Company Public – God, Monsters And The Institutional Banker
July 10, 2010 by James Scott
Filed under Marketing
Minimal input, maximum output is the motto of most politicians that are driven by backdoor profiteering from this economic collapse. If you think that your local politician’s main interest is his/her constituents and the issues facing your town such as job loss, debt and foreclosure, you need to wake up, turn off the TV and start looking at your senator and congressman’s voting record and better yet, corporate election sponsorships. Financial greed and the cult of power is what motivate these people. Your vote is merely a vehicle to their ability to obtain both simultaneously.
There are two spheres that fuel the political machine: big oil and lobbyist financial facilitation, your vote is secondary and can typically be bought. Bought? Of course, don’t be so naive as to think that you vote with your gut and unique conviction. What news channels do you watch? After the televised staging of a debate what commentators do you turn to for the breakdown of what the candidates were ‘really saying’?
You, whether you want to admit it or not, are a product of the political persuasion of the news you watch or talk radio you listen to. We have unqualified talking heads in office that spew regurgitations proctologically embedded in them by the special interest groups that sponsor their election. Banking institutions are one of the industries that perpetuate and stimulate the actions of these politicians. Global banks who sponsor the cycle of ‘control by debt’ are the first to jump on the bandwagon and contribute capital to a system that perpetuates this process. When small and medium size businesses need capital the first people they turn to are institutional bankers. Herein lies the problem. When a bank funds your project they hand over a minuscule fraction of actual capital and the pie in the sky fractional reserve numbers take care of the rest. Typically an FDIC backed bank who lends $100k only needs to have $10k in reserve, the rest is added by the Fed in the form of digital read outs on a screen and the illusion of empirical collateral. Being that there is no gold standard and nothing but consumer confidence that backs up our dollar the privately held Federal Reserve can print money at a whim and better yet, add a few zeros to the calculations on a computer monitor and you can make or break a bank which in turn can make or break a regional or national economy.
Entrepreneurs should first consider taking their project to the public via Regulation D (504, 505 or 506) or Private Placement Memorandum and then seek out qualified consultants who can help facilitate a public offering where the company deals directly with the public and 10k’s and 10q’s in combination with the company’s profitability and expansion will dictates it’s success. Companies function best when governed less. Sure white collar crimes have been in the news and the executives go to jail, and rightfully so but consider the reality that politicians and top tier banks have been publicly crucifying business owners for years. Which is worse?
As an investor you should evaluate your investments and get diversification advice from qualified financial advisers as entrepreneurs your first call should be to a consultant that can write a PPM and a solid business plan and take it to investors. Banks should be the absolute last resort for a small and medium size business. The days of entrepreneurs voluntarily placing their heads on the chopping block in the name of institutional control and political capitalization should come to an end.
