From before you start your broker search, to designing and printing your message, Eagle Rock’s talents and ingenuity will enhance the effectiveness of your campaign while keeping an eye on costs. Our solicitation experts can assist in all aspects of the shareholder meeting, from coordinating the broker search, estimating the materials needed to considering distribution options such as Notice and Access, segmentation and Householding to arranging typesetting, printing and mailing of material. We will work closely with your tabulator and the street to maximize your vote – and the outcome of your meeting.
With Proxy Access looming and the changes to Delaware’s proxy rules, proxy communications are becoming more complex, while giving opponents greater opportunities for challenges. Let Eagle Rock assist you in delivering winning shareholder-meeting strategies!
