Flexible Engagements

Every Company is different. No two companies face the same challenges, and no two advisory relationships should look exactly alike.

Depending on a client's stage of growth, objectives and the nature of the engagement, McNeill Bay Growth Partners offers flexible engagement structures designed to align interests and provide practical, long-term support.

McNeill Bay Growth Partners is not focused on individual transactions alone.

Our objective is to become a trusted long-term advisor throughout a company's lifecycle, from formation and early capital raising through strategic growth, acquisitions, public markets and eventual exit.

Many of the strongest relationships begin with a single conversation and evolve over many years as companies grow, mature and encounter new opportunities.

  • Ideal for founders and management teams seeking an experienced advisor to provide ongoing strategic guidance throughout the year.

    Representative services may include:

    • Strategic planning

    • Capital raising strategy

    • Board and governance support

    • Corporate development

    • Transaction planning

    • Investor relations support

    • Executive sounding board

    • Strategic introductions

  • Designed for discrete projects requiring focused strategic and transactional support.

    Representative engagements include:

    • Capital raising preparation

    • Financing strategy

    • Acquisition planning

    • Corporate restructurings

    • Governance reviews

    • Go-public readiness

    • Strategic planning initiatives

  • For certain mandates, particularly strategic introductions, capital raising advisory, mergers and acquisitions and other transaction-based engagements, compensation may include a success-based component aligned with the successful completion of the transaction.

    *Where appropriate, and subject to applicable minimum fees or retainer payments, legal and regulatory requirements.

  • Where appropriate, McNeill Bay Growth Partners may accept a portion of its compensation in the form of equity or equity-linked instruments.

    We believe this approach can align incentives, demonstrate long-term commitment and allow us to participate alongside founders in creating lasting enterprise value.

  • Where appropriate, we may also selectively invest alongside founders, existing investors and strategic partners in businesses where we believe our experience, network and long-term partnership can contribute meaningfully to long-term success.

    Co-investment decisions are made independently and are not a condition of any advisory engagement.

  • Many engagements combine multiple compensation models.

    For example:

    • Monthly retainer plus transaction success fee

    • Monthly retainer plus equity participation

    • Fixed-fee project plus ongoing advisory retainer

    • Cash and equity hybrid arrangements

    The objective is to create an engagement structure that aligns with the company's stage of growth, objectives and long-term strategy.
