Market Management: Independent Stock Market Provides Businesses with Stock Management and Advertising

Today, several business owners need a little extra capital to get their business up and running or to fund a new company project.

Bountiful, UT (prHWY.com) August 22, 2012 - Today, several business owners need a little extra capital to get their business up and running or to fund a new company project. Unfortunately, several smaller companies are limited in their options to access capital. Several capital-raising methods today can be expensive, time consuming, difficult, risky, or illiquid. As a result, several of these new business owners are turning away from options such as Wall Street and venture capitalism to earn money with a secondary stock market, the Independent Stock Market. The Independent Stock Market provides a forum where businesses can sell their stock both privately and publicly. The Independent stock market will also perform market management tasks to advertise the stock to the public community.

Two Methods of Raising Capital: Staying Private and Going Public

Today, there are quite a few options for a business to raise capital. Several of these methods fall under the two broad sectors of private and public offerings. Although many of these methods provide successful ways to obtain financial means, like any investment process, they all have potential risks and drawbacks. When an individual stays private, they can use a private placement offering, or a PPO. A PPO is a securities investment that is typically only available to accredited investors. These investments are illiquid, which poses a risk to investors. Another option when going private is using venture capitalism. A venture capitalist is one who uses their fund to invest their money in businesses and corporations that will presumably have a high rate of return, with the help of a little extra capital. When a venture capitalist invests this money, he or she usually gains control of the business. A third option for those wishing to stay private is to borrow money from a bank. Obtaining a loan can be effective, yet difficult, due to the fact that a business may not have liquid assets to pay back the loan. If a business chooses not to stay private, they can also earn capital by going public, with an initial public offering, or IPO. An IPO is the initial sale of company stock to the public through the Wall Street forum. If companies do not have the necessary capital, it can be very difficult to get an IPO. This is due to the fact that initial public offerings can cost thousands of dollars and can take years to obtain.

A New Third Method: The Independent Stock Market

Another option available to those looking for capital is a secondary stock market called the Independent Stock Market (ISM). ISM allows businesses to make their stock shares available to the public without having to go through Wall Street. Although ISM is in charge of the company's stock shares and market management (advertising), the business owner still maintains management over his or her business. The Independent Stock Market is able to advertise a company's stock shares to the public by getting the word out to potential investors (family, friends, and colleagues of the business owner, and other warm investors from interested corporations). ISM also advertises a company's stocks through search engine and social media websites.
