How much impact will having a large number of shareholders have on my company?

How much influence your new shareholders will have on your company depends to a considerable degree on what is included in the governing documents, how you structure your offer, and how much of your company is sold. Minority shareholders generally have little direct influence on how the company develops. Companies are ruled by simple majority for most decisions. For example, minority shareholders will not determine who the directors are unless the majority of shareholders who vote on an issue agree with them.

Snowball Effect also offers nominee services and management to help simplify the process, which you can read more about here.
