Flexible Engagements
Every company is different. No two companies face the same challenges, and no two engagements 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.
Many of the strongest relationships begin with a single conversation and evolve over many years as companies grow, mature and encounter new opportunities.
-
Designed for discrete projects requiring focused strategic and transactional support.
-
Ideal for clients seeking ongoing strategic guidance throughout the year.
-
For certain mandates, particularly capital raises, 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. Strategic introductions will not be compensated directly, including by way of any success or finder’s fees, and will be provided as an ancillary benefit under a broader advisory engagement. McNeill Bay Growth Partners is not registered as a dealer or adviser under applicable securities laws in British Columbia and Canada.
-
In selective circumstances, McNeill Bay Growth Partners may accept a portion of its compensation in the form of equity or equity-linked instruments.
-
Where appropriate, we may also selectively invest alongside founders, business owners, existing investors and strategic partners in businesses where we believe our experience, network and long-term partnership can contribute meaningfully to long-term success.
Investment decisions are made independently and are not a condition of any advisory engagement.
-
Many engagements combine multiple compensation models.
For example:
Fixed-fee project engagement fee plus investment allocation
Monthly retainer for general strategic advice plus transaction success fee
Monthly retainer for general strategic advice plus equity participation
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.
