Growth Marketing for Private Equity & Portfolio Companies

In private equity, every lever matters — and marketing is one of the most powerful yet under-optimized.
At Growth Marketing Consultancy, we help portfolio companies and operating partners build scalable, data-driven growth systems that align post-acquisition teams, drive revenue efficiency, and increase enterprise value.

Whether you need fractional leadership during a transition, a system audit post-close, or a full marketing rebuild across multiple brands, we provide the structure and expertise to turn marketing into a performance engine.

Our Approach

  • Post-acquisition alignment: We evaluate the current marketing stack, team, and performance to identify quick wins and long-term system improvements.

  • Fractional leadership: We plug in as a Fractional CMO or Head of Growth, leading internal teams and agencies while establishing strategic clarity and accountability.

  • System design & scalability: We build unified marketing frameworks across channels, data, and reporting — turning fragmented marketing activity into repeatable, measurable systems.

  • ROI & transparency: Every initiative is tied to financial outcomes — revenue growth, CAC reduction, or LTV improvement — with full reporting visibility for both management and investors.
