Some Information That Help You To Know Could A Small Business Go Public?

I find it to be an universal belief in the small business community that small businesses can't go public until they have important revenues, say something on the order of $10 to $20 million per year.

This is completely wrong.

I have been taking Small Businesses and Start-Up companies public as a consultant above 15 years now. And for 15 years I have been frequently asked in different ways " Can a small business like ours elevate capital by going public? We simply have a million dollars in revenue. Aren't we very small?"

The response has been and still is "Of course, you can go public. And no, you are not too small."

What is very small?

Well in fact nothing. A company who is bringing in one million in revenues would be no issue to take public. But it is truly not regarding your revenues, it is concerning your business ideas. If you are working on a development stage business plan and you are making progress, then we can possibly take you public with that alone. If you are making five, ten or twenty thousand per month that is beneficial as it simply signifies that you are implementing on your business plan.

It has become tougher and tougher to take an organization public with no revenue and no business operations as the SEC and FINRA are rightfully trying to eradicate micro cap fraud, but yes it could still be done. If you have no revenues, although, you will need to have patience, some money in the bank to warranty you can survive for some years, and you will have to be making genuine improvement on your business plan to show the powers that be that you are a "genuine" company and not just a "sham" set up for micro-cap scam.

If you are a small business and you don't plan to be mom-and-pop always, then "Going Public" is something you must investigate in the very early stages. "Public" money is normally a lot cheaper as compared to "private" money.

I have seen private companies who feel they are very small to "go public" give up half of their company for a small six figure investment. Sometimes companies with revenues in the millions feel they are very small and taking the business capital route they increase ten or twenty million but end up with just five to six percent of the company in a few years.

This type of dilution is totally pointless. The same amount of money can be increased by going public while sustaining 60-65% ownership

Of course there are drawbacks to going public early also, but many of those have to do with being preyed upon by non-professionals, fraudsters, and others who truly don't know what they are doing. If you check out your advisers and get suggestion and structuring and referrals from experts who know what they are doing, you can reduce many problems of going public early.

And if you feel you are potentially the next EBay or Google or Microsoft sort of company, going public early on without venture capitalist might be worth billions and billions of dollars.

Bill Gates just owns about fourteen percent of Microsoft. Just think how rich he would be if he owned sixty percent!

Now after the "Can I really go public?" sort of queries the next set of questions I generally get are "How do I raise capital when I go public? Do I do a merger reverse? " or " I see ads that say - Buy reverse merger shell - must I do that? " But those are questions for another article. Stay Tuned.
