What Do Baseball Cards Have to Do with Investor Relations?
When someone thinks of baseball cards, images of a 10-year old boy chasing athletic dreams likely comes to mind.
For most, baseball cards are an unsophisticated product left behind in your youth.
In reality, baseball cards are a sophisticated product that can help teach numerous skills needed to succeed in Capital Markets or Investor Relations.
Think about the idea of reviewing the stats on the back of a card.
Maybe it is the chase of going to a card show and looking to buy a dollar for 25 cents!
Maybe it is learning market cycles and dynamics because you purchased too many Kevin Maas rookie cards in 1990!
Baseball cards teach you about statistics, valuation, and market dynamics.
The back of a baseball card illustrates the key performance metrics (KPIs) for a particular player.
Just like baseball cards, Investor Relations Officers and Sell-Side Analysts have KPIs, too.
