Enabling value creation and value discovery
Our experience in the capital markets has shown us that there is a substantial intangible component in the way the (public and private) equity markets value a firm. Besides 'hard' factors (TAM, growth, unit economics, return metrics etc), there are also a number of softer factors (capital allocation capability, governance, perceived strength of competitive edge/durability of business moat, DNA/culture of the firm, perceived strength of leadership team, communication/transparency etc). Our holistic approach addresses and aligns all the three pillars - strategy, people and capital markets - to enable value discovery
Why Mainspring Advisors?
Our approach is distinct from typical consulting or coaching firms:
- While conventional consulting/coaching/investment banking usually focuses on one of the three pillars (typically strategy, people and capital markets respectively), our experience has shown us that for a business to achieve its full potential and for true value discovery to happen, all three pillars need to be sharp and in alignment. Our approach involves addressing them in a holistic manner.
- Our assignments are typically high on customer intimacy and longevity. We do not 'fly in and fly out'. We function as a mix of a coach and 'family doctor', serving as a companion, mentor and bouncing board. We brainstorm with and roll up our sleeves alongside the management of the company as they innovate, make strategic choices, build an enabling organizational culture, go through multiple fund raising rounds, and ultimately realize value through the capital markets.
- Our solutions are bespoke and tailored to the unique needs of the firm, its DNA/culture and the capabilities/goals of the leadership team, rather than a 'one size fits all'.
