Proven Approach

We have developed a proven 3-step approach to engaging investors, building management credibility, and positively rerating companies. 

Our proven approach comprises:

Pre-event Voice of Investor® Perception Study

Our customized and comprehensive approach to primary investor research identifies factors that influence valuation and crystallizes what is within a company’s control to unlock value.

Based on statistically significant research, we deliver powerful insights and actionable, practical recommendations that enable our clients to capture maximum mindshare.

Event Strategy and Execution

Leveraging event planning experience and best-practice knowledge, we assist with every aspect of execution, streamlining the process and ensuring the event is a success and delivers on its objectives.

We serve as a sounding board, project manager and resource, providing the expertise and support necessary to execute a best-in-class investor day.

Communications and Messaging

Our report, based on a multi-question survey, captures sentiment and feedback on presentation content, delivery and event format, measures critical message retention, and benchmarks results against our proprietary database.

After months of strategic planning and execution, we assess and quantify the impact the event had on investor and analyst perception.
