OPALESQUE DIGITAL MASTER CLASS - ASSET RAISING
A proven system to raise assets and build a successful investment management business
With 9 out of 10 managers failing to grow over a $100m assets, smaller managers face an existential challenge. What's even worse is that the primary reason why most managers do not get over that $100m hurdle is not because of poor performance, but because of poor marketing. As a result, 9 out of 10 emerging managers are forced to shut down their shop within the first five years.
Did you know that the top asset gathering funds raise four times more money than the top performing funds? Of course, in the investment business performance still counts, but the ultimate edge have those players who developed and follow a well designed and structured marketing process.
Since 2003, I have interacted with thousands of investment managers. All 100 out of the top 100 hedge funds by size have used our services. I have seen managers making it, becoming billionaires and building formidable businesses, but way more – also talented and hard working people – have fallen to the wayside. Don't be one of them.
In this Digital Master Class - Asset Raising we took all the success strategies we have seen work over the last two decades for the best, brightest and most successful investment managers, and packed them into a format that will make sure that those elite strategies and processes work for you and help you to raise and retain assets.
The reason why this Master Class works is because we not only compiled and aggregated the best strategies out there, but have created a success system combining videos, workbooks with summaries and exercises, personal coaching and a Commitment Buddy System, together with over 30 powerful Guerrilla Tactics that you don't find anywhere else.
The World has gone Digital. Have you?
COVID 19 has further widened the gap between the top asset gathers and the rest. There are firms who continue to strive and have no issue raising record levels of assets, but we also saw that too few firms have given thought to how to strategize and optimize their online marketing efforts and presentations, or they just haven't implemented the right ones. As a result, an exceeding number of investment managers struggle raising assets and thus in their business overall.
The digital world has become so much more important, and too many investment manager fail to reap the benefits of the new communication channels. Their assets under management are stagnant, or, in some cases, their business is affected because of investor redemptions. Don't let that happen to you.
With a structured, disciplined and well designed asset raising process you program your business on expansion. Just by implementing our 30+ Guerrilla Tactics alone will put your business on the fast lane when it comes to asset raising.
This course is different
The Digital Master Class - Asset Raising course is structured in a completely different way than any other online offerings, because it is designed to take you through a step by step process that will motivate and compel you to take action, which then will produce the desired results.
If you are then also doing your work on the performance side, success is virtually guaranteed. Why guaranteed? Because the whole Master Class is set up not as a collection of videos that you consume, but as a process, like a Standard Operation Procedure which causes you to think, implement and act. With our built-in feedback loops and the commitment buddy structure, what you get at the end is your own robust, sustainable, and highly efficient and successful capital raising process.

Five steps to a thriving Asset Management business
The three principal mistakes that can lead to a fund's early death
Already in the first video you will come to understand the primary reason why over 90% of managers never get over $100m in assets, and what you need to do to be among the few who do.
You'll also learn about the three principal mistakes that can lead to a fund's early death.
We'll show you how you can optimize your marketing process to save 90% of costs, and how family offices and institutions select their investments. The course includes several case studies where you'll hear from family office CIOs and institutional investors themselves how they filter and select external managers. We'll help you how to create a Pitch and Deck That Really Work and show you how to raise sticky assets, and how you evolve from a mere fund provider to a trusted partner of your investors. And this is just the base course.
In the part two of the course, the Tactics, we then go deeper and teach fundamental elements like the four phases of marketing for fund managers, how to create a buzz so that your fund raising is exponential, how to get to true excellence in your presentations. You will hear from someone who consistently attracts 1000 participants to his webinars who he does that and get his detailed blueprint how to plan, market, execute and benefit from a rocking webinar. We'll show you four hacks for convincing video calls, and in another case study you'll learn how institutions analyze hedge funds and their underlying partnership structures.
Remember, this Master Class is about Digital Marketing for investment managers, so we'll also show you clearly how you get onto the first page of Google. You will learn the six elements your website needs to have, and the three things Google “likes”. Of course, we also cover Digital Media compliance, because with all the excitements and new options in digital marketing, you also want to stay clear of trouble when it comes to compliance.
Close it!
The course is rounded up with a hands-on Elite Training for advanced users. Here it is all about “closing it” and how you can massively increase your probability of success at investor meetings and cap intro events.
A manager might have the right performance, the right story and the right deck and marketing process that gets him meetings with allocators, but still fail to convince them to invest. Having watched thousands of managers present, we've seen many failing again and again in one or several of these three main problem areas: Presentation failures, process failures, and attitude failures.
This module also includes the Ultimate 27-Point Check List for Successful Virtual Meetings. By following this Ultimate 27-Point Check List, you'll make sure that you're excelling rather than failing just in front of the finishing line.
By now you will have figured out how much you'll be getting in this Master Class, we are really just scratching on the surface here. You find a detailed listing of everything you'll learn at the bottom of the website.
As we said, if you are then also doing your work on the performance side, success is virtually guaranteed. However, the irony is that if you are doing your job on the performance side but fail with the marketing, it's equally pretty sure that you won't succeed from a business perspective.
