Private Equity’s Marketing Transformation Partner
Portfolio company marketing burns cash.
Not because the teams are bad — but because traditional marketing is built for long-term brand building, not 5-year holds.
The result?
Marketing budgets justified by soft, vanity metrics
Uncontrolled rising customer acquisition costs
Limited visibility makes marketing feel like a money pit
In other words, using traditional marketing in PE-backed companies is like racing a Toyota Corolla in Formula 1 — it’s just not built for that level of performance.
What are your options to fix it?
Internal teams tell you that more creative freedom and flexible budgets can fix everything.
Consulting firms hand you strategy decks that collect dust.
Marketing agencies chase clicks and views, not EBITDA.
Private equity needs a purpose-built solution.
That’s why we designed one from the ground up — to make marketing a measurable driver of revenue, EBITDA, and enterprise value in private equity-backed companies.
