Investing in an IPO traditionally offers higher yields and a Pre IPO can offer 200%+ returns if the structure is solid. By structure I am referring to founders, C Level executives, board of directors, compliance legal team, pipeline contracts, overall profitability and dilution in the float (just to name a few items). Finding the right transaction takes more than just some advice from your broker, though their efforts may be pure in intent, they are, for the most part, unqualified to advise on such investment actions.

Unless your investment adviser is a strategies and structuring consultant with a ton of experience in globalization, they may be licensed to sell you securities but they are not qualified to strip an opportunity to the bone and reconstruct it looking for errors or chinks in the armor to justify a solid transaction or a pump and dump pipe dream.

Most brokers make a tremendous effort to evolve out of the burnout genre of pitching and selling stock and more toward mergers and acquisitions where the real money is. Part of M & A is merging private companies into public entities, restructuring the company, stock and management and then turning out the entity with a new symbol and price and pounding the pavement with multiple genres of IR simultaneously. Selling shareholders who invested in the Pre IPO phase of the company will create the float and make the quickest returns with minimal risk as they will typically buy their shares at a deep discount to the retail price. Next, with a controlled incline of the stock price the investors who buy at the road show outings will make nice chunks of change and may receive some type of warrants.

Using online mechanisms for stock promotion such as social media, webinars, opt in email, banners and other white hat processes will assist with daily volume. Phone room buzz generation materialized by phone rooms calling around and introducing the company and it’s stock symbol to investors and market makers allows for eyes to be focused on the company and in return will result in both short term and long term investors. Then you have the road show which are also referred to as ’round table’ meetings. I’m not talking about the free suppers in Manhattan for free loaders and wannabe’s; I mean a targeted audience of 15 to 20 tops, investors who are ready to listen, ask questions and buy.

If you are considering investing in a Pre IPO, make sure that the company has a clear cut plan for all the above promotion. If the company structure is sound and the promotional element is there, chances are it’s a safe bet for the short term. Legislative contacts, globalization, board member alliance facilitation and a professional C level staff will be the critical factor to take the company toward long term success. Before making an investment of any kind consult a licensed professional.

As a journalist I find myself ghost writing books for self absorbed executives and politicians and never able to take credit for it. I usually get a call from the executive’s publicist and they want me to write a bunch of garbage about his soft side, his humanitarian side or his golf swing. The article is written, published, the clients happy and I feel like a sell out with no journalistic integrity because in this industry, to pay the bills means to compromise and do things you don’t like. This interview was different, completely different.

I met James Scott at Earl’s, a fine dining establishment for Bucks County’s upper crust. The waitress was a snob, I was invisible to the bartender and the experience of waiting for him to arrive was a pride swallowing nightmare that is difficult to put into words then James walks in, polished, confident and ready to get down to business. “Why is my friend still standing” he snapped at the waitress walking by, “I’ll be with you in a…” before she could finish, he interrupted, “we’ll find our own seat, you’ll find us and bring us menus, Steve follow me”. We grabbed a table and to him, this was normal. “If you wait once you’ll spend your life waiting. So what can I do for you?”

I was expecting someone older, in their 50′s or 60′s, he was in his 30′s with a chip on his shoulder to act as warning to any opposition, anytime, anyplace that you may start an argument or debate, he’ll finish it. I became drawn in immediately. He received a call as we sat down from a congressman in the north east and spoke with such confidence, eloquence and authority I felt as though I was sitting in front of an 80 year old statesman that’s been born and bred into the political strategies game.

When he hung up my first question was “Where do you get your confidence to talk to power players with such comfort and ease?” He looked up at me with a glare that was focused and made me feel he was looking into me as opposed to at me and replied, “I think confidence is all relative to what you know and what you know you know” with a grin, he crossed his legs, ran both hands over his slacks and continued, “I made it a habit early on to say as little as possible so that when I was ready to talk I had the attention of the entire room. I made sure that I studied the attendees and read through the body language and speech patterns of everyone there to find the leaders, followers, supporters and skeptics and after collecting all this information I could determine who I needed to address in the room. After 12 years of studying body language and voice patterns it becomes a process of analyzing the situation at hand and responding with an objective strategy that can be applied to the situation. I gained confidence from the successes of using this process time and time again.”

“How do you define this unique area of consulting that you specialize in? There are only 3 or 4 other consultants globally that have the contacts to both economic power players and political lobbyists and special interest groups. How do you keep everyone happy in such a stressful environment where crisis management is typically the job you’re being hired for?”

The waitress arrived at the table, it was 10:35am, some people were still having breakfast, I ordered a coffee, he ordered a vodka tonic, double Belvedere with extra lime as if drinking in the morning was normal behavior. He answered “My core consulting genre is strategic facilitation. I started with public and pre public corporations by setting them up properly to go public, then my firm would take them public, put together a post public investor relations process to grow their marketability to investors and then help them expedite their growth with acquisitions and merger identification and facilitation.” He continued, “I began getting involved on the political side as I would be contacted by a lobbyist group that was working with a congressman or senator who had issues they were trying to sort out and there was no one to call so they would typically get referred to me from a board member of a company I structured and they would say something like, ‘our candidate is having a similar issues that the CEO of ABC Inc was having and we wanted to see if you could come on board to help us work it out . . .’ and that’s how I started getting involved on the political side. Politics just like general corporate and economic strategies have many similar threads. I just try to use the experience from one project for the next and so on. I guess more than anything now I’m a fixer but I’m working more with lobbyists and special interest groups.”

I asked him what prompted the change from focusing on corporate strategies to lobby and special interest, “Well, at the end of the day politicians are the visual identification for an agenda. The agenda is typically started by demands from the localized constituency. Lobbyist and special interest groups spend millions of dollars researching statistics and geographic layouts to find the areas of the country/world that their prototypical support base resides. The next move is to identify the political power-base in that region and initiate support planning. If the political figures are open the next thing is localized job creation and general economics. The convergence of the two in a way that is conducive to instantaneous capitalization and results is where I come in. I work with lobby firms because that is where the real power is, not the actual politician.”

Again, every word was pronounced perfectly, his vocabulary was authoritative, his eyes didn’t blink, his posture was perfect and I have to admit, I couldn’t find a single chink in his armor. There wasn’t an ounce of pretentious or insecure put-downs or belittling of anyone and in talking to him I felt myself gaining more and more respect and admiration for him.

This 30 something ‘kid’ has more global political pull than even the most seasoned politician yet he was comfortable in his skin and completely calm. His breathing was paced and as I looked for the prototypical nervous habits such as a bouncing foot on the floor, sweaty brow, nail biting etc, none were present. He was, in every sense of the term a W.A.S.P without a single trace of insecurity. I was in awe and when I think about it now I believe I took something away with me that day. I’m 54 years old and I have to admit, I look up to him. That may sound strange and it’s even stranger to admit this after I’ve been writing on economics for 25 years.

As we wrapped up the meeting (he only set 20 minutes aside for me and time flew by) his next meeting rolled in. A Chinese oil company needing his strategies to help them out of some issues in Africa. “have a seat gentlemen” he said “I’m going to walk my friend out and will be back in a moment.” He walked me out and we shook hands and he said, “I know you’re a journalist and you’ll want to ask me how I want to be portrayed in the article and I would say this, just go with your gut. I have nothing to hide and my reputation is more about what I am able to accomplish for my clients as opposed to what potential clients read about me. Just write for your readers and it will be fine.” He put his left hand on my shoulder while his right hand stopped shaking my hand and just held it for a moment and then he walked away.

That’s it. That was my interview with James Scott, CEO of the almighty Princeton Corporate Solutions. We didn’t get into the juicy family topic because he wouldn’t mix work and family, we didn’t cover any controversy that surrounds him because there is none, there are no legitimacy issues with him as his cell phone has the world’s most influential professionals and political organizations on first name speed dial.

What I took away from this interview is one thing. The economy is in shambles our government is a disaster but there is a part of me that feels safe and secure knowing that James Scott is involved in the process. We need people like him to help the power structure keep order and to make the moves by these groups solid, strategic and strong enough to help us rebound the devastation we are now experiencing. We need leaders who were born to lead to take us as a people by the hand and tell us that it’s going to be OK and to just focus on our jobs and family, there are qualified people working in the shadows that don’t need nor want special recognition or their names in lights. James Scott is the silent leader that enables crumbling economies to rise again and hopeless corporate organizations to thrive. Keep an eye out for him; chances are he’s turning around a company or an economy near you.

From one blog maniac to another, I feel that blogging gives us all an opportunity to express our opinions, good and bad, off the cuff and to the masses. I remember getting bad service in a Subway sandwich shop with my family, I sent out a twitter to my group and in 24 hours I received a personal apology from the franchise owner and the corporate office with a hefty supply of free food vouchers that literally lasted us a year. It’s nice to know that we are able to keep companies in check using social media.

That said, we should use these mediums to put out praise as well. I just left an NJIT (New Jersey Institute of Technology) conference for their incubator program where the latest and greatest in technology and biotech got to pitch their companies to angel investors and private equity firms. There were some pretty reputable companies their and investors that could pay off the deficit of a small country with their signature on a check. I was there looking at a company with a unique EKG technology that will revolutionize emergency rooms everywhere but that will be in another blog if we cut a deal; back to the conference.

We’re sitting in a room packed shoulder to should, no seats available just standing room by the door then a guy comes in, walks into the seating section (people waited in line for an hour for those seats) with his assistant, the people in their seat looked at him, he looked back and they moved and offered him their seats, then two minutes later, one of the owners of a pretty large hedge fund brings him coffee. Um, can you say strange?

As it turns out, this was James Scott the CEO of Princeton Corporate Solutions, absolutely the creme de la creme of international strategies and IPOs. The reason everyone was kissing his backside was because he was there to pick a company to spearhead legislation for his political clients. Their firm is unique as part of their process is to find promising but underdeveloped companies and blast them into super-stardom with capital, structuring and organization and IPO and getting his clients built directly into legislation, bills that are in the process of raising votes and awareness to be passed as laws and regulations. He can make or break a company, hedge fund or politician over his knee like a twig. He was the personification of power. His presence made the room vibrate with his influence. I couldn’t take my eyes off him. It was pretty awkward as we were all staring at him whispering.

20 minutes before the conference was over he got up and left, I guess he didn’t find anything he liked but the funny thing is, half of the players in the room got up to chase him down the hall to initiate contact. It was nice to see that the people that everyone was trying to sell and impress still have to do some butt kissing of their own to keep climbing the circles of influence within their industry.

I remember being a teenager in private school. I’d look around on parent day and could see the who’s who in global economics and blue-blood wealth. I didn’t come from money, my father was a teacher at the private school (which shall remain nameless) in which I attended therefore the $20,000 tuition was waved for my education and everyone knew it. I went through school with the elite and was constantly reminded of my minimal financial capacity when these high school seniors would go to Europe for the summer and stay at each others mansions and party day and night.

There was one guy that was level headed enough to spend his summers working for congressmen, senators and lobby power brokers to get the experience to use his exceptional pedigree and make a name for himself. He was always too preoccupied to put others down and when I’d go into the lunch room with no one to sit with he would always grab me by the arm and bring me over to his table which was populated with jocks and snobs and the guys who were considered the ‘in’ crowd, they, just like everyone else in the school worshiped and admired him. He could see that the constant pestering and mockery would get me down and he’d whisper in my ear, ‘hold your chin up, don’t let them know it bothers you’ and I remember one time in eleventh grade he came to my rescue in the locker room with is naturally intimidating presence, the second he walked in all mockery stopped as they all knew I was under his protective wing.

I have always wondered what happened to him. Because of his effect on my life I went through university and achieved a PhD in psychology in my trek to find out what psychological elements are at play when a young man like this can have such precise focus and indefinable presence where his few words and actions can crumble any wall in front of him. I always wanted to thank him for helping me get through school ‘uninjured’. He never expected anything from me he just looked out for me. He wasn’t the biggest guy in school or the coolest but his presence is what set him above and beyond everyone else and his actions and integrity gained him instant respect. When a teacher would try to debate with a student that didn’t do his homework, this guy would step in front of the student and debate on his behalf and believe me his facts and figures were always on the up and up and I never saw him lose a debate with an instructor.

So where would a guy like that be, now 16 years later? I’ve looked around, called the alumni office and was shocked, though I shouldn’t have been, when I found out that James Scott is now the CEO of Princeton Corporate Solutions and is the premier economic adviser to congressmen, senators, kings, queens, presidents and prime ministers. His brilliant mind, intellectual stamina and unbridled integrity paid off and I have to say it couldn’t have happened to a more deserving man.

James, if you are reading this, I want to thank you for being my protective vale in high school. Thank you for giving me a place to sit in lunch and for protecting me from the rich kids who were set on making my life as miserable as possible. Because of you I was motivated to go through university and achieve a PhD in Clinical Psychology and it is my goal to pass on the legacy of emotional protection that you gave me. I don’t know what else to say but thank you.

As I raise my son I constantly refer back to you and your actions as I guide him on becoming a man. Honestly tears rush to my eyes when I think back to how your steady hand guided the fates of so many in our class. We all looked up to you and now look at you, that same gentle yet steady hand is guiding governments and nations as they stand under your protective wing where we once stood. Thank you James, not a day goes by that I don’t think of you and thank God for you.

For investors, that once in a life time opportunity is always out there happening for someone else. There is always a story about a guy that got in on an IPO for a software company that turned him into an overnight millionaire or that next big bio-tech IPO for a company that has the closest thing to a cure for Alzheimer’s that the industry has ever seen, they did a small pre IPO raise and then closed out the offering and now there are talks of a buyout, again overnight millionaires will be made.

Are these investors exceptional in terms of their research capabilities and knee deep in investment banking contacts that give them insider info on the down low? Most likely they did two simple things the right way. First, they made themselves available for opportunity by subscribing to IPO alerts from reputable firms. If you’re quick to action you could find yourself in the middle of an obscenely profitable venture. Second it’s the luck of the draw for those who are willing to put themselves out there for a little acceptable risk for the chance of big reward. Obviously blatant risks like Forex, pink sheet pump and dumps and investing in pie in the sky concepts that don’t have a chance in heck of actually working are for the few adrenalin junky millionaires who thrive off of the rush of, um well, losing.

If, hypothetically you get access to a possible jackpot IPO in the rare ‘Pre IPO’ stage what is your next move? Who do you call to help you with research and how do you evaluate the company on the spot based off of the prototypical PPM? First, if it’s your money it’s fine to get a second opinion but you need to know what to look for in a viable investment.

Here is how you do a spot audit for stability in an investment in the Pre IPO phase: 1. Look for a solid corporate structure consisting of well pedigreed professionals in the C-level positions, strong and diversified inter-industry board of directors, secondary advisory board, strategic alliances and an equity/share distribution mechanism that is organized and compliant and a share price based off of a solid valuation by a reputable firm.

2. Are they in a growth industry? When you look at the founders resume in the business plan are they serial entrepreneurs with a track record of modest success but minimal focus? Or has their career been targeted and focused on one single direction? You want to professional that has worked his entire life honing his skills and pedigree for this particular industry and this on opportunity and he’s all in and there is minimal possibility of pump and dump.

3. What is their 12 month strategy post public? What is their growth strategy? If they think they can grow organically they’re in for a shocker. They have to show a plan for post public growth through acquisition and subsidiary merger. What targets do they have lined up and what will they bring to the company which will ultimately affect your share price and overall investment. Who does their legal? What is their post public market creation strategy and who is their contracted investor relations firm and what is their track record for dealing with companies in this particular industry genre? What is their globalization strategy for rapid and expedient but controlled growth?

4. Are they politically connected? What strategies firm are they working with to gain global and incremental political and legislative support? What bills are they mentioned in and who are the politicians that are sponsoring and cosponsoring this legislation and what type of photo opps and press is being set up to make this company the face to the industry?

Never invest with borrowed funds or capital that you depend on for retirement or necessity. Only invest with capital you’re not afraid to lose (this goes for any and all investments). Getting involved in pre IPO opportunities can be very rewarding for the informed, accredited investor. Do your research and make yourself available to the right circles of influence that can act as hotbeds for opportunity. Surround yourself with industry insiders and ask lots of questions.

I’m a fan of all things Machiavellian, the only downside, well, he’s been dead for a while so I had to settle for ‘The Prince’ in audio, video, books, mp3 and every other way I can get my political strategies kick. I found myself being drawn to type in certain keyword phrases and came across a company called Princeton Corporate Solutions, a boutique corporate and political strategies firm working globally with political crisis management and domestically on the IPO scene.

I had the pleasure of being introduced to the CEO of this company, James Scott, while I was in Midtown, Manhattan last week. I was coming out of the Yale Club and saw a group of 10 or more consultants standing next to a Lincoln Town car and inside, there he was, on the phone and puffing the infamous Baccarat Churchill, sunglasses and completely unaware of the group waiting to talk to him when he got out of the car. I heard the name Machiavelli a dozen times in less than 60 seconds and I was hooked, I had to find out who this guy was.

After a few minutes, he stepped out of the car, the first person to greet him was an NYU student who asked him to sign her thesis paper (that’s not a joke, that actually happened). He signed someone’s copy of ‘The Art of War’ and even the box of an audio version ‘The 48 Laws of Power’. All you could hear is ‘Mr. Scott, where are you staying?’ and ‘Are you going to be speaking in the city’ and so on.

He took off his sun glasses and put on his black rimmed specs and imagine my dismay when I saw he wasn’t even 40 years old, handsome, exquisitely dressed and a look that could hypnotize a cobra, I had to meet him.

If you are an economic or political strategist, unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve certainly heard of him. He’s called on by governments who need economic turnaround strategies. He’s called on by publicly traded corporations for crisis management and to give his blessing to the board on their new CEO choice or bless the CEO’s decision to make a move against another industry player. He works his magic when a pre public company needs to be globalized with strategic alliances to set a solid pathway to a fast tracked success. He can pick a board of directors for a new company going public that would bring a tear to the eye of any shareholder. His crisis management will shift the defensive position to a company’s largest competitor. He’s taken what started as hostile takeover and turned it into the most financially prosperous year his client’s corporation has ever had.

James Scott has a reputation for perpetual success and the inability to lose. He is what every CEO wishes they could be and what every board wishes they could hire. You’ve never seen focus until you watch his eyes when counseling COO on how to grow a company by 30% in a year while cutting 15% of its workforce and shutting down 11 locations by off shoring, carefully identified partners for hard-hitting global alliances and other strategies that defy logic but seem to work every time.

After about 20 minutes things calmed down and I was accompanied by a friend who is with one of the broker dealers downtown who knew him and I asked for an introduction. He was walking down to a cigar shop down the street (one of those members type places, the name escapes me) we walked with him. During the five minute walk his phone rang a number of times and in that time I heard him speak Korean, English, Spanish and Mizo (a language spoken only in one state in the northeastern section of India called Mizoram). The phone stopped ringing long enough to say hello and get a quick intro.

I shook his hand, introduced myself and asked him “What is your secret?”, he chuckled and then asked me, “What is the difference between a tactician and a strategist?” I said, “I don’t know” he responded, ‘Neither does anyone else and that’s the secret’. After that he went down the steps to the members lounge and I’ve only been reading about him ever since.

It’s funny. I thought I had it all together until I came across this man. I felt that I had general economics figured out and that I was on a fast paced road to success and I find myself pondering the reality that I’m 64 years old and I haven’t even scratched the surface.

I found some more on James Scott, CEO of Princeton Corporate Solutions , and the Princeton Youtube Site is here.

The objective of today’s CEO is survival; survival in terms of enterprise position. The CEO has to pick up the shattered remnants left behind by the lies and failures of elected officials and institutions. Today’s senior executive needs to be a congressman, judge, mayor and priest all rolled up into one. The livelihood of one’s employees/constituency depends on the expansion tactics, emotional stamina, intellectual foresight and willingness to enter into an economic cage brawl to protect the company, shareholders and employees that depend on the entity’s survival for monetary sustenance.

Surround yourself with the most proven advisers you can find as you expand and go public. Recruit guerrilla networking maniacs to set up strategic alliances to grow your company into new areas. Expand when competitors expect you to roll up and die. Keep in touch with shareholders. Communicate with newsletters, email, press release and via expert panel interviews on TV and radio.

Step up and take your position at the apex of the influence pyramid of your industry by demonstrating your expert status with podcasts, ipod and ipad information applications, webinars and a solid blog. Give the market what it wants, free information. Make ‘how to’ videos, write informative articles. Educate the public and lead them to your company for facilitation. Always promise low and deliver in a way that is beyond the expectations of the customer and shareholder.

In every environment there are leaders and followers. The leaders will each have a flock. Do your research and initiate communication with these shepherds. Show them the advantages to coming down your path and the rest will take care of itself. Win/win relationships always yield possibilities for capitalization.

Seek out board or advisory positions with inter-industry entities and set up powerful alliances where you can share the weight of publicity and merge distribution channels. Get to know your legislative representation. Find out what bills they are sponsoring and co-sponsoring and offer expert input and cooperation for legislation having to do with your industry. Once you’ve achieved a relationship or mention in a bill, publicize it. Become the face to a movement.

Lastly, do some good! Get involved at the grass roots level and change people’s lives. Volunteer at a soup kitchen, put together a company scholarship to help hardworking seniors go to college, coordinate with your employees to volunteer at nonprofit events and of course you’ll put this interaction through the regular publicity channels to set the standard for your locality as well as your industry.

People no longer believe in their congressman, senator, president or prime minister. These positions are filled by do nothing power enthusiasts. C-level executives step up and step forward. The road will be difficult and challenging to navigate but in these times we need leaders who see the bigger picture and are willing to carry the torch and lead.

Today, companies are truly moving forward or crumbling, there is no in between. I hate clichs but this is reality. By now, unless you’ve been living in a cave you’re highly familiar with the successes, failures and genius of global securities guru Warren Buffet and monopoly mastermind Bill Gates. They’ve changed the face of business and all who come to the scene now seem to be some morphed hybrid of the two as neo consultants and corporate strategists draw their inspiration from all or a portion of ideologies and processes originated from these two men.

They’ve introduced a side to acquisitions, mergers, globalization and monopolizing markets that university business professors and modern day corporate leaders were blind to but now a sub industry has been introduced based on the theories and concepts of these entrepreneurs. As a freelanced writer and ghost writer for blogs, journals, newspapers and other medias I spend my life researching the ‘next great thing’ and in this case of spend years researching the next international economic trend setter, rule breaker and the one individual that will do the impossible, merge economics with politics in a socially positive and economically responsible approach.

We all know that money is the driving force behind politics but no one has been able to blatantly stand in front of a room of American and European economists and trend setters and actually prove the ability to formulate real, publicity friendly strategies for actual domestic and global alliances between major economic powerhouses and international political figureheads, lobbyists and special interest groups. But last week my search ended when I was having drinks and a small out of the way hotel in the Washington DC suburbs of Alexandria, VA.

Let me walk you through my experience. I was meeting a lobbyist for Israeli affairs to get some insider information and quotes for an article I’m writing on the Palestinian/Israel conflict and my source agreed to meet me for a few minutes before another meeting he seemed to be pretty excited about. We sat down and the first thing that took me back was this gentleman, an extremely renown strategist for all things ‘lobby’ as he’s called on specifically when governments or other lobbyists are in crisis management mode. As we were sitting down he said, ‘Here you sit there and I’ll sit here, I don’t want to be late for this meeting as it will dictate my firms survival in the near future’ as he said this he seemed nervous. We sat down at two armchairs in the lobby so that we could talk and view the guests for this insider’s meeting as they came in.

As it got closer to 9pm (the time the meeting was to start) I witnessed some of the most influential senators, congressmen, ex-presidents and prime ministers and other major lobby group senior partners, not to mention CEO’s and CFO’s that I’ve only seen on TV and read about in Fortune and other business journals that have turned down my work in the past (I’m not bitter…ok maybe I am). At this point I knew something was up so I asked my source if I could join him and I’d do the note taking so all he had to do was sit and listen as none of his staff was with him to take up this task, he agreed.

As the meeting was ready to start I found myself in a room with 50 of the most prestigious names in politics and some of the most pedigreed men in business (strangely there wasn’t a single female in the room which I didn’t realize until I looked over my attendance notes before writing this freelance entry). The room was nothing but an ocean of whispers and head nod greetings and I truly felt as though I had stumbled upon some Bilderberg sub-group or illuminati think tank meeting. Above the whispers I kept hearing one word ‘Machiavelli’ but there was no tongue and cheap grin after the name, these men were using this name with curiosity and absolute awe.

The meeting was called to order just like a traditional board meeting and the ‘speaker’ was introduced, James Scott from Princeton Corporate Solutions. I heard of the company but never the name of the individual. As he was introduced everyone sat up straight then leaned in to hear what this guy had to say with the focus you would if you believed you had the winning lottery ticket at the number announcement.

James came from the back of the room to the front. He stood there in front of a room of political and corporate masters and I could see the reality and truth in everything that I’ve ever heard about an invisible puppet master behind every face of a political, Fortune 100 CEO/Board and special interest group. As I’m looking at him I’m looking at the men in the room and feel myself getting whiplash as I’m trying to put the pieces together. Turns out James Scott has been the strategies consultant to some of the biggest moves in recent global economic and socio-political history. He’s assisted these men with getting elected to their positions via multiple indirect ‘cat’s paw’ consultants and this was actually the first time many of these gentlemen have actually met him though he’s created and perpetuated their careers.

As he spoke you could hear a pin drop in the room. This 30-something strategist could pierce the Berlin wall with the focus in his eyes. His voice spoke with the authority of a demigod with a hundred lifetimes of strategies experience with zero indicators of second guessing or insecurity in his voice. His posture was Napoleonic and each time he would mention one of the attendees by name they would crumble and blush like the child of a father praising them for a job well done.

As I began to recuperate from this mind warp I felt a nudge from the lobbyist I was accompanying and he motioned a pen to pad gesture which indicated that I was to get down to taking notes. The meeting came down to introducing economic and influential political contacts to one another as both sides were delegated a particular task. This was the first time that I’ve ever witnessed someone of influence offering a strategically entwined relationship between business and the legislators who directly influence the outcome of business decisions and vice versa in a way that wasn’t damaging, lopsided or with a critical ulterior motive that would injure one side while serving the other.

Here is what I took away from the meeting in short, as I’m trying to condense a 5 hour meeting into a few paragraphs, basically impossible but let me try though the attempt to assimilate this information in a way that is conducive to getting my point across which may be fatal from the onset but I’ll give it a shot.

The approach by James Scott was entirely Machiavellian in nature with the realities that in order to serve the greater good, some contributors fall to the wayside while others are part of the future picture and overall stratagem. Some of the people in the room were tacticians while others were affiliated because they were strategists. The difference between the two in this case were the tacticians were those in the scholastic/analytical field of a lifetime of memorization of previous policy contributors while the strategists were the facilitators of those formulaic tactics by adapting policy and scholastics to the real world environment and current events.

Corporations create the jobs that fuel the local economies which collectively can turn around a domestic economy. Politicians are assisted by lobby organizations and special interest groups in gaining a platform which brings with it the followers that will vote to keep them in office to perform the tasks that will assist in the greater good and put into action the ideas and concepts of the lobbyists as the lobbyists are the ultimate voice of the people. This circle of influence is what fuels economic prosperity and lack of communication between these groups can deteriorate an economy (basically what we are seeing now). The path has been deviated one too many times and the convergence of policy makers and facilitators has been derailed and we find ourselves in international chaos at every front.

This meeting cracked through, captured and set a road map for economic recovery by taking into consideration all the elements and parties as pertaining to this recuperation equation. The incestuous necessity of voter spearheads, legislatures and corporations is a mandatory prerequisite to a growing and stable socio-economic formula that will rebound and flourish. I must admit, the above is a pathetic Cliff Notes version of the meeting and it would take multiple encyclopedia size entries to even attempt, though most likely fatal, to give the reader a modest breakdown of the influential decisions that were made in that room and the positive path we set for real, long-lasting recovery.

As I left the meeting there was a sense of overall ease and a refreshed outlook on the future and for the first time in a long time I actually felt good about the outlook of this country, the west and the global strategies in motion and being configured to make this world a better place for all of us and all this rooted in the strategies formulated by a guy you’ve never heard of and a company you probably couldn’t hire even if you wanted to. It’s a strange world we live in but thanks to leaders such as James Scott (I’m currently researching him and will post more entries about him and his background as new information is made public) who would rather focus on a positive influence then standing in front of cameras as self promoters we will evolve out of this diseased global situation and into one that flourishes for all of us.

What happens when politicians perpetually fail the people of a nation? What happens when lying, steeling, cheating and other grotesque displays of a primitive mind become mainstream with those who have been elected to govern our nation?

The answer is simple, natural law kicks in and the Darwinist notion of Survival Of The Fittest becomes the new reality. Don’t think for a second that your children can’t see it and I f you pay attention you’ll notice it with the crowd around the water cooler and even the racquetball clique. People, smile and goof off less and synergize more. The subconscious, primal survival mentality of our fight or flight ancestors is now dictating our moves as we are once again in survival mode.

Here is what I’m seeing in global commerce. Companies and entrepreneurs that would normally go out of business, claim bankruptcy, lick their wounds and go sell insurance for a living are now seeking synergistic relationships with other like-minded professionals.

Today, I was contacted by three different men: one was a performing and non performing note buyer who made great money but wanted to expand and go public, the second call was from real estate investor who owned around 2.5 million dollars in property, had liquidity and money in the bank but was afraid to do anything until he has a strategy for taking his company public and the third gentleman had a construction background in the luxury home industry and made great money but also had around 3 million dollars in commercial real estate holdings.

Each of them said, “my goal is to go public but I would like to team up with other men just like me so that together we can make a huge success of the public company”. Now obviously that was not verbatim but you get the point.

When I got off the phone, I walked down the hallway from my office to the conference rooms, grabbed some coffee and slowly walked back to my office and then…a moment of Zen, it is time to bring out the merger machine! I immediately got on the phone, called all three clients and within 2 hours had all three of them doing back flips in their living rooms. We took the strengths of each of these men and put them together into an entity that will work.

Don’t give up! Whatever you do, you must never give up. Don’t believe for a second that your Senator or Congressmen is going to do or is even capable of doing anything to improve your position. If they were drowning in a lake you would be the first person they grab and use as a flotation device. Open your eyes and take it all in. Are you fit enough to survive?

Placid expressions on the faces of the soon to be sacrificed entrepreneurs, “Line up, take a number, politicians are momentarily occupied at the citizen guillotine but they’ll get to you in a moment. Yes, just stand there and wait your turn while the IRS picks your pockets and bankers rape you of your dignity, don’t worry it will all be over soon.”

Is this a little to graphic or a little to real? Which is more upsetting to you? I believe that the fact that the above is the psychological reality of the American populace at this moment in time and that is what’s so disturbing. We are led to the slaughter as sacrificial lambs and we are expected to just grin and take it as it is our patriotic responsibility not to complain. Just take this two ton backpack of burdens, place them on the backs of our infants and move on. Right? I am asked to speak on the topic of global finance, IPOs and corporate globalization internationally and the one common thread I see in every country I visit is that the citizens of the host country feel that it is their patriotic duty to stand there while corrupt politicians place the noose over their children’s heads and slowly suffocate the lives out of them with debt, corruption and the economic burdens of multiple generations.

Truth be told, the patriotic thing to do is ask questions, protect our children from a mountain of growing debt and tell the institutional powers that be exactly what we demand of them. In the meantime what does a company do when they are trying to raise capital to stimulate rapid growth or stabilize their position? The last thing you want to do is open yourself up to the life sucking banking imps who lend with the intent to repossess.

Take the power back, create wealth for your family and your children’s children. Take your company public, start with the OTCBB (over the counter bulletin board) if you can’t qualify for a larger exchange and grow from there. Be smart with your corporate capital and use your stock sparingly and preserve it. Before you sell shares for public consumption, conserve your share price by securities backed loans like PIPEs.

Offer shares to loyal employees and give them a chance as well. Politicians will pick your pockets until there is nothing left, banks are pawns to the Federal Reserve whose sole purpose is to bury you in debt and wrap invisible handcuffs around your wrists. Go public. Create opportunity and wealth and take charge of your own fate.
