Essential steps to kickstart a direct-to-investor (D2I) marketing strategy.

Navigating the world of investor marketing can feel like a daunting task, especially when you're not sure where to start. But don't worry, we've got your back. Here's your handy roadmap to kickstart an effective investor marketing strategy - something every company should prioritise to bolster investor relations and attract greater investor demand.

Deep dive into shareholder data.

Your shareholder data is a goldmine just waiting to be discovered. It's time to get up close and personal with this data to understand your existing shareholders.

What made them invest in your company? What are their preferences? Where are they located? What might be their future actions?

These insights can guide you towards potential investors (investor leads) and help tailor a more effective marketing strategy.

So, start exploring your registry data. It's right there, ready to be harnessed for actionable insights. And remember, consistency is key. Regularly assess your shareholder data, run experiments and measure their effectiveness.

Elevate your investor relations.

Investor relations (IR) is more than just a department; it's the first step upon which you can build your investor marketing strategy. And as you evolve from traditional shareholder engagement towards generating investor demand, it becomes vital to merge several fields. A blend of content marketing, digital marketing, direct marketing, and IR can craft a holistic investor marketing approach.

Luckily, there are tools available to make this process a breeze. These can transform the task into a manageable process that supports your existing IR team, both internally and externally.‍

Boost your digital presence.

In today's digital age, your shareholders and potential investors are likely to be found online. They use these digital platforms to research, engage, and interact with companies and other investors. That's why you need to not just establish, but actively maintain a robust social media presence.

But it's not just about visibility. Offering platforms for direct interaction with your company and facilitating investor conversations can greatly influence their decision-making process. Plus, being consistently available to your shareholders builds trust, which can potentially influence your stock price positively.

It starts with "I" and rhymes with "tub".
