As the purpose of Sean being engaged with the investors It's a good idea to share it all.
Happy to fill you in.
I was brought in to update the company contact list.
Itās a neat niche our family business operates in, but it brings serious value to the people and companies we do it for.
For the record, I donāt do it on a whim.
Because the second I put my name out there, I get inundated with friends and peers from all over the world asking me the same questionsā¦.so I end up āowningā whatever story Iām personally attached to for lifeā¦.
Someone asked me one day, āhow do you choose the people or companies you work with?ā
My answer is simple; I only work with people I would invite into my home or leave alone with my kids.
I donāt play the undervalued card like most.
Truth is that a company is very specifically valued at the close of every day.
Everything else is dreaming.
The only way a stock goes up, is when the company is accomplishing real stuff.
But I do think SOLG is on a very good track with the right CEO, and an amazing project.
Iāve worked as a senior officer/registered insider of several explorers, developers and producers and I am connected to a lot of people smarter than me who are saying the same positive things about the company.
Whatās interesting about today ā is the environment is changing fast.
Normally, a developer or producer spends 99% of their time communicating with their largest shareholders/institutionsā¦..those convenient days are done.
Why?
Because a single shareholder who only owns 500 shares of the company may be posting 20 things a day on social media.
In our company we call it the rise of the antsā¦ā¦..one little ant may be connected online with millions of other onesā¦and suddenlyā¦.those ants can sway votesā¦.
I canāt say the name, but a CEO friend had 150,000 shareholders on their list.
90,000 of them voted against everythingā¦..
Scared the Board like you wouldnāt believe.
90,000ā¦.INDIVIDUAL shareholders.
Little guysā¦.sitting in front of their screensā¦.talking to everyone.
Call a major mining company IR department ā¦.see if you get a call back.
You wonāt. They only care about their institutional holdersā¦.for now.
So, what we do, is make sure those ants feel part of the story.
And great things can happenā¦.I can actually see a little uptick since we started calling people. Now you know. š
We donāt just call retail, sometimes we stumble upon very serious institutional people along the way alsoā¦.we never prejudgeā¦we treat every call like a KING OR QUEEN.
Because we never know whoās on the other end of that phone.
What I can share, is there has been overwhelming positive comments come back at me.
All bs asideā¦.when you reach out to 100 people a dayā¦.you can expect a myriad of emotionsā¦..BU
