PPM Writing Workshop

Would this be helpful for current/prospective Searchers to have 30-45min workshops regularly to help in building compelling Private Placement Memos? 

Kingsway is aiming to recruit Operator-in-Residence roles within our Search accelerator and probably receive PPM on 5% of Applications - which are typically the strongest candidates to hire as they have a clear perspective on how they intend to approach search. I think there is plenty of content available on how to put this together - yet I see a paradox that it is so seldom embraced. 

How can we make it easier for the best operators to stand out in the process and share their vision with investors?

I love it. I’ve heard several people downplay the importance of a PPM in order to stand out. Getting feedback from someone that uses them would be great.
