Private Equity · GROWTH
The Proprietary Deal Engine.
Off-market deal flow as a system: researched, principal-grade outreach to founders inside your thesis — so the conversation starts before the bankers do, at relationship prices instead of auction prices.
The problem this solves
- Flow dominated by intermediated processes where you pay full multiple
- Thesis targets mapped in a spreadsheet but never systematically approached
- Owner relationships that take years to mature, maintained by nobody
What we measure
- Proprietary (off-market) opportunities per quarter
- Owner conversations opened pre-process
- Entry multiple: proprietary vs. intermediated deals
Every engagement starts by baselining these numbers in your systems — results are reported against your baseline, not against industry averages.
The playbook
01
Off-market founder origination
Owner lists built to your thesis — size, geography, fragmentation — approached with researched, respectful outreach in your fund's name, before any process exists.
02
Owner cultivation, years ahead
Founders 2–3 years from a decision get a patient, value-adding cadence — so when they're ready, there's no auction. Just you.
03
Aged-target and broken-process revival
Owners who said 'not yet' and processes that fell apart get a systematic, well-timed second conversation — the cheapest proprietary flow there is.
