Investment Opportunity
An ambitious boutique PR firm seeking to expand and extend its operations across Africa. We are looking for willing partners to help us grow.
Founded by five (5) seasoned PR and Media practitioners in Ghana,Drive 5 Ghana Ltd. currently boasts of a portfolio of clientele from some of biggest names in Ghana's corporate space. Drive 5 has been in operations for barely a year now but it is strategically aligned to two firms in the creatives and advertising industry meaning that we almost always receive referrals from our partners leading to business deal closures. Ghana's PR space is relatively young and the room for growth is unlimited.
Currently, there are no known multinational PR company operating in Ghana giving us hope that with our small beginnings, we stand a good chance to capturing a chunk of the market. What we seek to do this is a bit of an investment to resource, recruit and by so doing expand our operations. We are thus looking for any interested party, be it, individual, group or corporate to own an equity stake in Drive 5 so that, together, we can grab this great opportunity yawning for grasp.
Drive 5 currently has a fully-furnished office with internet, phone lines, and aircondition among others, located in one of Accra's most coveted addresses, Labone.
Competitive Advantage
Our competitive advantages hinge mainly on the trained and experienced manpower and the extensive network we can boast of in Ghana's corporate world spectrum.This means that we know where to go and who to talk to to secure deals, while having the manpower to design and execute effective winning strategies for our clients.
Use of financing
Requested funds would be used to resource the company i.e purchase vehicles for operation, buy laptops and computers. Expanding operations also means that more hands would be needed to be able to adequately serve our clients. Part of the investments would also be used to recruit and pay the salaries of new staff to augment the strength of the already-existing team.
Opportunity for the investor
Currently, there is available for take-over 50% shares of the company. Any equity investor would thus be able to own these shares depending on the quantum of investment.
The ROI is expected to be fast and would aggregate not less than 30% per annum effective 2 years after the investment.
As it is now, Drive 5 will welcome a hands-on or silent investor so long as the investor shares and believes in the vision and mission of the company to grow and capture the PR and Events market of Africa from its base in Accra, Ghana.
Preferably, the investment instalment schedule could follow a 50 - 30 - 20 trend. That is, the would-be investor would have to advance 50% of the total investments after the deal has been signed and the remainder disbursed in 30%-20% tranches.
