BlueCorner
Blue Corner is a boutique marketing and capital introduction firm based in San Francisco that focuses on servicing independent research
analysts and both alternative and traditional investment managers. It was founded on the belief that
by combining industry best practices with integrity, professionalism and hard work, we can deliver
tangible results to our clients and differentiate ourselves. Our clients are in this for the long-term
and so are we.
We develop a thorough understanding of our client’s business – the culture, the methodology,
the differentiators, the philosophy and most importantly, the people. We work with our clients to
establish clearly articulated, quantifiable goals. We assess where the firm is now, help define the
vision for the future and produce a roadmap to arrive there. We benchmark the firm’s sales and
marketing practices to the competition and to best practices within the industry. We then diagram a
tactical plan to stretch marketing dollars and to shorten the sales cycle by targeting only the most
appropriate investors/clients. We continuously monitor our progress. In addition to offering timely feedback on leads,
weekly status reports and monthly status conference calls, we track and convey trends in investment
behaviour, the response to our inquiries and other valuable competitive information.
