The Best PE Firms Do MORE Than Open a Checkbook
Welcome back to the Mid Market Insider!
The best private equity firms add value beyond capital.
At Four Pillars, we don’t have a magic bullet or an ‘easy button.’
Rather, we think of ourselves as being focused.
The majority of our conversations with founders deal with:
Aligning on goals and objectives
Capitalizing on what the company does better than its competitors
Emphasizing the company’s culture
We go beyond injecting capital and expecting it to grow on its own.
We love to come in and be active partners, not out-of-touch financiers that repaint the lobby to show there’s a new sheriff in town.
From optimizing operations to opening new market opportunities, we see ourselves as more in the role of coach or advisor that comes in to help the team reach its potential.
A hands-on approach works, and we provide resources and support that go way beyond writing a check.
Growth is hard. With our experience, we always aim to add as much value as possible by helping our portfolio companies achieve their goals.
📅 Next Week:
In next week’s newsletter, we’re going to discuss why we at Four Pillars don’t only focus on financial engineering as a way to grow a business.
Keep building,
Nick
