The Roadshow Window
A typical institutional investor roadshow runs 8-12 meetings per day across 2-3 cities over 5-10 days. The schedule is fixed by the investment bank's capital markets team and the institutional sales force — meetings with BlackRock, Vanguard, T. Rowe Price, and Wellington do not reschedule because a car was late. The margin for error in roadshow ground transportation is effectively zero. FFGR USA's roadshow program is designed around this constraint: every departure time is treated as a hard deadline, every meeting-to-meeting transition has a buffer schedule, and every chauffeur has a backup chauffeur on standby.
Multi-City Coordination
A standard FFGR USA roadshow program covers New York (days 1-3), Boston (day 4), Chicago (day 5), San Francisco (day 6-7), and Los Angeles (days 8-9). Each city has a dedicated FFGR operations contact who coordinates the local vehicle and chauffeur. The program manager at FFGR USA's New York headquarters manages the full program from a single point of contact — the CFO or CEO's EA communicates with one person throughout the roadshow, not with nine different local operators across five cities.
The Roadshow Vehicle Standard
FFGR USA's roadshow vehicle of choice: the Bentley Flying Spur or Mercedes-Maybach S680. Both provide rear working environments optimized for productivity — the executive's time in the vehicle between meetings is preparation time, not transit time. Rear connectivity includes Wi-Fi hotspot, dual charging ports, and a climate-controlled compartment for presentation materials. The exterior profile of the Bentley Flying Spur is appropriate to asset manager arrivals — it reads as considered and successful without the ostentation that a Rolls-Royce Phantom might introduce into a meeting focused on fiscal discipline.
Booking Protocol
FFGR USA roadshow programs should be booked a minimum of 72 hours before day-one departure to allow for vehicle positioning in each city and chauffeur briefing on the schedule. For programs exceeding 5 days in 3+ cities, 5 business days of lead time ensures optimal vehicle and chauffeur quality across all markets. The investment bank's roadshow coordinator typically has our contact details. If yours does not, contact FFGR USA directly and reference the transaction to confirm corporate rate eligibility.
