Meet, Pitch, Raise: The Power of the Right Investor Audience

Guest: Ray Oliver, CEO of Bear Creek Capital

Host: Frank Ferraro

Episode Summary:

In this episode of Off Road with Frank Ferraro, we dive deep into the critical role of face-to-face investor meetings with Ray Oliver CEO of Bear Creek Capital. Ray shares his insights on why in-person meetings create stronger investor confidence, foster trust, and drive real results in ways that virtual roadshows often cannot replicate.

Key Takeaways:

• The Impact of Face-to-Face Meetings: Investors rarely rave about a great Zoom pitch, but they often recall compelling in-person encounters with dynamic CEOs.
• Building Trust and Investor Confidence: Being in the same room allows investors to read body language, gauge preparedness, and assess the sincerity of executives.
• Hybrid Approach to Investor Relations: While digital roadshows have their place, they are not a substitute for in-person connections—they complement each other.
• Success Stories from the Road: Ray shares how a single roadshow turned a micro-cap biotech stock into a ten-bagger and led to an acquisition.
• Lessons from Experience: Frank recalls the story of Rexahn Pharmaceuticals and how a strategic roadshow led to a major capital raise and a NYSE listing.
• The ‘X-Factor’ in CEOs: Great leadership, a compelling vision, and a strong team (including a CFO who instills confidence) make all the difference in investor meetings.

Memorable Quotes:

💬 “You don’t hear investors say, ‘I just watched a great Zoom call,’ but they do say, ‘I had lunch with a CEO today, and I’m investing.’” – Ray Oliver
💬 “Trust is built differently in a room than over a screen.” – Frank Ferraro
