Many high growth companies can benefit from external financing to accelerate growth. However, securing business financing can be a time consuming distraction from growing and managing a successful business. We help clients choose the right time to bring in investment capital as well as determine the right amount to maximize value. We manage the process so our clients can focus on managing business operations.

We help companies find short and long term financing from both strategic and financial investors. In each instance, the goal is for an investor to bring more value beyond liquidity. Progress Partners draws from an extensive network of relationships at every level of the investment community – seed, venture, private equity, mezzanine investors, and customized debt sources.

Key Activities:

• Analyzing the current cap structure
• Identifying financing options and analyzing their relative costs and benefits
• Finding the right investors (strategic institutional or individual)
• Developing and coaching the management team on the investor presentation
• Preparing the management to present to the board on likely scenarios and progress
• Negotiating terms with potential investors
