About Alinea Growth Advisors

A Passion For Marketing Excellence

Today’s increasingly competitive environment for middle market Private Equity Firms, Family Offices, and Investment Banks, has left little time for those entities to focus on their own Marketing strategies, tactics, and execution—not to mention the measurement of the impact of those activities. At best, a Business Development executive is forced to take on a Marketing role as a part-time, almost side job taking valuable time away from their critical in-person deal origination responsibilities. At worst, a GP or MD whose primary focus is on deal evaluation and execution, is forced to give up hours of their time trying to perform tasks in which they are not trained or knowledgeable in 21st Century Marketing tactics and tools. 

Alinea Growth Advisors was created to bring Fractional Marketing Services to Private Equity Firms, Family Offices and the Intermediaries and Counselors who serve them. Private Equity Firms, Family Offices, and Investment Banks are realizing they are far too busy competing to win the next deal or enhancing Portco equity value to be able to focus on a Marketing and Lead Generation ecosystem that is dynamic and ever-changing. Why not leave the execution of your critical Marketing functions to a firm that lives and breathes Private Equity, Family Office, and Investment Bank Marketing full-time—and who enjoys doing so?

“At Alinea, we believe that roughly one-quarter of the skills required to be a successful B2B financial services Marketer 10-years from now have yet to be created.”

Today’s increasingly competitive environment for middle market Private Companies, Private Equity Firms, Family Offices, and Investment Banks, has left little time for those entities to focus on their critical Marketing strategies, tactics, and execution—not to mention the measurement of the impact of those activities. At best, a Business Development/Sales executive is forced to take on a Marketing role as a part-time, almost side job taking valuable time away from their critical in-person and remote deal origination responsibilities. At worst, a GP or MD whose primary focus is on deal evaluation and execution, is forced to give up hours of their time trying to perform tasks in which they are not trained or knowledgeable–that being 21st Century Marketing tactics and tools.

As a past General Partner, his knowledge of Private Equity Marketing, business development, fundraising, principal investing, and portfolio company value enhancement, positions him like no other in the middle market: “A Marketer with an Investor’s Mindset,” Phil has experience in buyouts, non-control/mezzanine, growth equity, ABL, and venture capital asset classes.
