Maximize Portfolio Company Value
Through Organic Growthyour brand
The Challenge:
Multiple Expansion Is Tired. Value Creation Is the Best Option for a Premium Exit.
In today’s environment of prolonged hold periods, rising interest rates, and tighter valuations, investors can't rely on financial engineering or inorganic growth alone. The best exits are backed by organic revenue expansion.
Your portfolio companies need a clear story for how value will be created—and the ability to prove it through performance. Most CEOs don’t really understand organic growth, so they delegate it to a sales and marketing team that doesn’t understand private equity fundamentals and capital-efficient growth over “scalable”.
Yet many private equity investors lack:
An advisor to help portfolio companies structure capital-efficient organic growth strategies
An independent resource to help CEOs structure sales, marketing, and customer success teams
Playbooks for building world-class commercial teams
That’s where I come in.
