Acorn Management Partners

Every day “our” technology proves that traditional IR cannot compete with Acorn's results. Ask your current IR for the metrics to prove their work, including all contact information provide to you... Then just check it against your NOBO list. Acorn’s technology tracks every engagement with qualified brokers who have clients – that’s plural, clients. Real-time, we know what was read, ignored, forwarded…we track every phase of IR engagement, and we share it with you. If brokers skip over a piece in your investment thesis, we’ll know, and course-correct. Don’t use mailers, emails and Hype… Grow the right way! Not all volume is good volume. We’re brokers at heart, and in method – more calls with more results, backstopped with machine learn and tracking technology. How many outbound sales calls did your IR make in the last 30 days to grow your investor base? Acorn makes over 3,000 outbound calls monthly to brokers and institutions in our CRM on your company’s behalf explaining your investment thesis. We are constantly increasing the amount of broker/investor presentations thus creating a broader audience day after day, month after month. Traditional IR tries to drive up volume for the sake of volume (TRADERS), we drive long term investors through their trusted advisors, for the company. Is your IR team paying attention to retail and institutional investors? An established investor pool is about 70% institutional and 30% individual investors. There are over 5,000 institutional investment managers in the US, and 600,000 registered brokers. Acorn focuses on brokers for both retail and institutional buyers. More calls, more results, more metrics. Simple put measurables… Quality outreach to investment professionals, a mandate to grow your total investor pool. Machine learning helps us target, deep analytics asses our success. AMP has two primary locations, Atlanta, GA., and Sarasota, FL.
