Our forefathers were inspired to insure through the Constitution certain inalienable rights to each citizen.
These rights include life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
American business owners find it difficult to pursue happiness when they aren’t able to access money from lending institutions, venture capital groups, or private equity offerings to help them expand their business while overcoming financial challenges that have appeared during the economic downturn.
These frustrations are accentuated when business owners realize that all they need to succeed is a little extra capital. Private business owners need the same opportunity that public companies enjoy. The most important advantages publicly traded businesses benefit from are the right to the equity they’ve built in their company and the utilization of corporate stock to build the business and acquire other businesses.

The mysteriously high level of success of big businesses is often achieved simply by taking their company public. However, there are several often overwhelming conditions and prerequisites to join the traditional markets including:
1. The initial costs -often exceeding $1,000,000.
2. Extensive Federal filings and Sarbanes-Oxley accounting guidelines.
3. Potential of losing control of the business.
4. In-house expertise to explain rules and trading activities which are confusing and perplexing to even the greatest of financial minds. This expansive and ever-changing knowledge is necessary for entrance into the stock market as well as for continued navigation and management.
