The Right Idea and Mezzanine: How to Launch Your Business into Middle Market Greatness

Posted on: September 9th, 2016

The Right Idea

Hire the Right People

The Mezzanine Advantage

As a business owner looking to expand, mezzanine financing allows you to use the capital any way you see fit to grow the business. You can acquire another business, start a new product line, or expand into a new market.

You can even use it to improve your capital position and pay your vendor and get extra purchase discounts. As long as you define the opportunity properly, you can go ahead and fund it through mezzanine.

The Way to Middle-Market Greatness

If you want to be a great company, then you needed a talented team of people. You need people that are experts in sales, product and operations.

You need people that will treat customers special, day in and day out. With extra money in the bank from a mezzanine raise, you can hire the best people and spend the time to get them up to speed with your culture and approach.

Financial Flexibility

The Mezzanine Advantage

If you are using mezzanine financing, then you can customize the principal repayment and decide to make interest-only payments. This gives you more money in the business to improve your cash flow and working capital, leading to faster rates of growth.

The Way to Middle-Market Greatness

When you have that kind of independence, you can aim for a lasting transformation, instead of a fleeting one. That means you can use the money at your disposal to make both small and large changes when it comes to your company’s strategies.

Let each change, no matter how big or small, build upon on the other and watch your company grow.

Go Big or Go Home

The Mezzanine Advantage

Having a mezzanine lender on your side can bring more than money to a company. They can also offer you strategic assistance.

Growing to 5 to 10 times your current size is a large task and mezzanine lenders have experience with these types of scale-up situations.

The Way to Middle-Market Greatness

With the lender’s useful advice, there is nothing stopping from going after larger clients. If you think your middle-market sized company won’t be able to service them, think again! The smaller a company, the more “care” it will need.

Moreover, with larger clients on your roster, your company will gain more credibility and have a higher chance of gaining even larger clients and achieving greater revenue growth in the future.
