For over 30 years, our principals have advised and invested our own capital in or raised third party debt and equity for both large and small enterprises. We have been entrepreneur-founders, senior managers, C-level executives and Board members of start-ups to Fortune 500 companies. We know how to take a business concept from back-of-the-envelope through development stage, early revenue, to profitability, expansion and on to public status and/or shareholder liquidity events. 

We prepare our clients for fundraising success. We undertake a top-to-bottom, pragmatic assessment of their readiness to approach the capital market and help management take whatever steps may be beneficial to give them the greatest chance of reaching their fundraising and strategic objectives. From the company's business plan to its investor presentation and pitch, we hone our client's message and method to earn the attention and support of the target investor audience.

OUR VALUE PROPOSITION AND GUARANTEE
Quite simply, our engagements are success-based. We don't win unless our clients do. Our retainer is paid in installments, and we earn it. If at any time a client becomes unhappy with our work or our results, we will make it right or they can terminate our engagement with no further obligation. ^(*)

CAPITAL AND COUNSEL
Whether or not we invest in or raise capital for our clients, we provide unparalleled advice related to strategy, capital formation, mergers and acquisitions, organizational behavior, process re-engineering, corporate positioning, and investor/shareholder relations. In short, we bring a full array of  management consulting expertise to our work as bankers and habitually establish trusted, long term consulting relationships with our clients.

Whether our client is an entrepreneur seeking seed money, a seasoned operating company looking for expansion capital or to recapitalize, a public company seeking to gain visibility and trading volume, or a team ready for a liquidity event, we can make their efforts more efficient and effective.

(*) Except for the usual and customary provision that if we have introduced a potential investor we will still earn our success fee if a transaction is consummated with them subsequent to the termination of our engagement.
