Why companies go public?

Companies go public to raise money. It gives them financial capital, that they can use to clear off debts, improve the infrastructure, invest in research and development of new products, introduce new products and so on. Apart from that, the increased financial scrutiny during the process of going public will get them better debt rates when they are issuing it.

And if the company’s stocks are in demand, there is always scope for mergers and acquisitions. The terms of negotiations can be in stocks. The demand also attracts the company’s top talents as the company can offer stock options as reimbursement. The company gets credibility and visibility after it gets listed on the stock exchange.

Commissions

Commissions: Commissions have become much smaller in the past two decades.Twenty years ago, there were still brokers who charged one-way commissions of between half a percent and one percent of trade value. Buying a thousand shares of GE at $20 a share, with a total value of $20,000, would have set you back $100 to $200 on the way in—and again on the way out. Fortunately for traders, commission rates have plummeted. The extortionate rates haven’t completely disappeared. While preparing this book for publication, I received an e-mail from a client in Greece with a small ac- count whose broker—a major European bank—charged him a $40 minimum on any trade. I told him of my broker whose minimum for a hundred shares is only $1. Without proper care, even seemingly small numbers can raise a tall barrier to success. Look at a fairly active trader with a $20,000 account, doing one roundtrip trade per day, four days a week. Paying $10 one way, by the end of the week he’ll spend $80 in commi...

SIPs - A habit to inculcate

The one conscious habit that everyone needs to adopt is the habit of SIPs. Saving something every month and investing it systematically in mutual funds is a habit that most of us should inculcate. It's not that hard and the long-term benefits are fabulous. Cultivating the SIP habit frees you from having to decide when and how much to invest. SIPs are in this sense the best way to invest in equity funds. Systematic investments average out the cost of your unit purchases, they don't put you at the risk of catching a market peak, and they earn you the benefit of compounding. And probably the most important benefit, from a non-technical perspective, is that SIPs force you to save and invest that definite amount periodically. Money saved is money earned, we know that. And in the case of SIPs, money invested is money that works to earn more money for you. Now, isn't that a habit you could get used to?

Building Your Go to Market Strategy When you introduce a product or service to a new market, there’s always going to be some risk. Over 30,000 new products are introduced every year, but 95% of new products fail. You don’t want to spend time and resources on a go to market plan that’s going to fall flat. A comprehensive go to market strategy acts as a roadmap, helping you research your market, position your brand, and unveil your new product or service. But before we look at how to build a go to market strategy framework, just what is “go to market” and how do you build a strategy around it? What Is a Go to Market Strategy? So, what does “go to market” mean? A go to market strategy (sometimes called a GTM strategy) is a plan of action that lays out how your company will reach customers in a new target market and gain a competitive advantage over other players in that market. It can also refer to how you’ll reach customers in an existing market with a new produ...
