What CCRcorp does

CCRcorp, operating under the legal entity EP Executive Press, Inc., is a privately held, Delaware-incorporated legal publishing company founded in 1975 (formerly Executive Press) and headquartered in Austin, Texas. The company distributes five topic-specific subscription publications — TheCorporateCounsel.net (corporate governance), CompensationStandards.com (executive compensation), Section16.net (Section 16 compliance), DealLawyers.com (M&A), and PracticalESG.com (ESG) — to corporate practitioners, securities attorneys, and M&A lawyers. Its self-reported reach covers 88% of publicly traded Fortune 100 companies and 93% of AM Law 100 firms.

The platform delivers expert-authored content across daily blogs, handbooks, treatises, checklists, podcasts, webcasts, and member-only expert Q&A forums. Editorial credibility is anchored by recognized authorities including Alan Dye, a former SEC staffer and Hogan Lovells partner who co-authors Romeo & Dye's Section 16 Treatise and Reporting Guide (6th edition), which has been described as the 'bible' of Section 16 compliance since the 1990s. The technology footprint is a digital publishing platform with no APIs, SDKs, or AI/ML capabilities disclosed.

CCRcorp operates a subscription-based recurring revenue model with annual and multi-year memberships purchased directly through memberships.ccrcorp.com, supplemented by a free-trial acquisition funnel at try.ccrcorp.com. The company also generates revenue and brand engagement through the PDEC (Proxy Disclosure & Executive Compensation) conference franchise. Marketing is driven by content marketing, dedicated LinkedIn showcase pages per publication, and community engagement via expert Q&A forums. The company has remained bootstrapped with no external venture or private equity investment, no M&A activity, and no recorded ownership transition since founding.
