Shareholders' frustration is understood. I'll bet management has frustrations as well and they don't have a website to blog on. They can't. And if they did noone would listen because it's all about the shareprice when it comes to investors. Stock is up, all is well with the world and everyone has a smile on their face.
Of course PR/IR in important. It goes without saying and I'll bet management knows that. But the Company can't post any significant news solely on it's website without going through the legal/SEC process.
Advertising is a different story.
The Company spends a significant amount of money advertising in industry publications and trade magazines such as the GreenSheet to promote sales and potential customer awareness.
Here's a good place to look and there is a story about RedFin last month:
The quarterly and annual filings contain a "boatload" of information as required by the SEC. You should use it to your advantage. "Deciphering" is not required as they are writen in clear easy to read language.
I'll bet one of management's frustrations stems from hearing from shareholders who do not take the time to read the filings and simply bitch about the stock price. The answers are in the filings. Between auditing, legal, accounting, and preparation better than $100,000 a year is spent on putting out those filings for YOU THE SHAREHOLDERS. Do management a favor and at least try to read them. If there are parts you don't understand, ask, and I bet management will explain as there will be no NEW information given in an explanation.
It is acknowledged that the share price is "the best way" to determine the value of your investment. But it is not the only measure of managements' continued efforts to make the Company profitable.
Of course stock appreciation and shareholder value is the ultimate goal.
