We are Growth Advisors. We work with Founders and Investors looking to accelerate growth.
Expertise is important, but valuable advisors should have knowledge and wisdom from having "been there, done that." Founders and their teams require advisors that engage deeply in the strategy and vision, not simply offer advice from afar. Tough questions and even tougher messaging are critical to help Founders and their team break through growth barriers. Advisors who ahve succeeded and failed offer a depth of insight invaluable to scaling businesses.
What does a good advisor and his team actually do? Great question. And it is hard to answer. But one thing that they should do is stay through execution. Many advisors have good ideas, can paint a picture and narrate a great story and vision. But as you scale, you need the strategic thinking to tun into action and outcomes. And you need advisors who "talk the talk and walk the walk". And have done so multiple times. We bring a network of experts and specialists who have built multiple successful businesses.
Consistency builds strength. And promotes growth. We do not advocate bespoke solutions if they can be avoided. For our private equity clients, the value they get is the creation of a "<Insert name here> Way". A language of sales and growth and GTM motions that everyone speaks and understands. That allows the PE investment team to quickly assess a portfolio companies status and progress. To compare them with other portfolio companies and help them adjust their trajectory accordingly. A common language and approach supports a consistent and repeatable approach to scaling and growth.
