How can we help you?

We will assess and dramatically improve the performance of your portfolio companies, with a focus on building well oiled, data-driven operations.  Services for PE firms include:

• Growth Opportunities and Turnarounds – We will create a 100 day plan that will dramatically improve performance of marketing and sales enablement. The outcome is is high-priority/high-impact plan with actions for operations, budget, organization, programs and infrastructure.  After the plan is developed we will then serve as an Outsourced CMO to execute and report to the PE firm as needed, or act as advisors to guide the execution.  Our approach is data-driven and measurable.

• Due Diligence Support – We give PE firms an unbiased perspective on the viability and potential of acquisition targets—with a deep dive into marketing and sales functions.  Objective insights are gained from primary and secondary research, data analysis, customer interviews and/or employee interviews.  We also query data that exists in silos and legacy systems across multiple companies, with our strategic partnerships.

• Benchmarking –You’ll get insights on marketing performance of portfolio companies vs. industry norms. Based on an audit of  operations for your portfolio companies, we will recommend and document best practices across the portfolio (adjusting for differences in markets)

• Data Driven Opportunities – Our proprietary data audit process brings structure and data discipline to portfolio companies. It provides insights that identify and fill key data gaps, including:
  • Critical, missing information on customers and prospects
  • Untapped insights on target markets and growth plans

  • Ways to measure “unmeasurable” marketing programs
  • Important competitive intelligence
  • Direct feedback from customers
