Bringing a company public in today’s financial environment via a reverse merger takes a lot more than just buying an OTCBB shell and having your SEC attorney file a super 8K. Companies must understand there are several parts to this puzzle and assembling all the parts correctly is paramount. Unless management assembles an outside team of professionals to address the many issues their company will be facing as a public entity they will be doomed to failure. By that, I mean if a company cannot position itself properly in the public marketplace it will not accomplish the most basic goals of going public; (a) increasing shareholder value, (b) raising capital and (c) using its paper (stock) to acquire its competitors.
