Recognizing the Opportunities and Need for Private Equity

TGP works with organizations that are at a pivotal point – perhaps the owner wants to begin to plan for retirement and wants to begin to diversify their wealth or they want to grow their business but realize that they don’t have the resources internally. 

TGP helps them to get the capital they need to accomplish their goals. 

The Ideal Organization:
U.S. based, middle-market companies, with revenues ranging from $15 million to $100 million, with a focus on manufacturing, distribution, and business services companies primarily located in the Midwest.  You can identify a good prospect when you hear them say:

  • “We need capital for growth.”
  • “I would like to sell part of my organization to diversify my wealth.”
  • “Retirement is just around the corner, I need to start preparing an exit strategy.”
  • “We need capital in order to make an acquisition.”
  • “More equity would help us strengthen our company’s balance sheet.”


A Good Prospect is:
A business owner who is looking for a private equity firm that will:

  • Partner with the current management to back, not replace great management.
  • Align financial incentives up front so that everyone is focused on maximizing shareholder value.
  • Provide the capital and additional management talent as needed, to take the organization to the next level. We begin with the development or evolution of your strategic business plan.  Then look at ways we can leverage the skill sets of experienced executives to help you implement the plan.
  • Provide board-level support, however, we do not interfere with management’s execution of the strategic plan.
  • Reduce owner’s risk by diversifying personal wealth and avoiding personal guarantees on bank debt.


Help Us to Help You
We have one thing in common – we both want to help our clients accomplish their goals. TGP’s strategy is to back, not replace, great teams.  That’s why we want you to be part of the process.  Your knowledge and skills, along with the management team are necessary as we sit down to develop the strategies that will increase shareholder value.

Bottom line - This process will not only help your client build a bigger, better organization but also help build a bigger, better client for you.

Another Benefit - Finders Compensation
The Fund’s main focus is on identifying investment opportunities outside of the investment banking auction process.  To that end, we have created a unique compensation program for individuals and entities that introduce us to investment opportunities on a proprietary, or non-competitive, basis.  Subject to the satisfaction of certain regulatory and other requirements, we will provide for a cash fee equal to 2% of the transaction value at closing and 3% of the Fund’s profits on the individual investment to those who make a formal introduction to an investment opportunity in which we subsequently invest in a non-competitive environment. Please click here for a summary description of our finders compensation program and a hypothetical example.  Contact us directly for more detailed information regarding specific terms and conditions.

Most of All - Thank You
We look forward to the opportunity to work together.  It is important for us to provide value to each other by looking for ways in which to create additional benefits.  To help both firms grow their business, we promise to look for opportunities to help you accomplish your goals as we network in the community.
