  • Featured image for an article on how private equity operating partners drive value creation. Centered white text on a black background says operating partners can’t run the value-creation plan in every portfolio company. Below it, orange text gives the fix: add an outside team that does the revenue work inside each one. A supporting line previews the article: how the best operating partners drive PE value creation, and which firms can help. Faint dotted lines on the left and right edges point toward the centered text. MAVAN logo at the bottom center.

    How Do Private Equity Operating Partners Drive Value Creation?

    Private equity operating partners drive value creation by turning the investment thesis into operating work inside each portfolio company. They set priorities, fix leadership gaps, and track the numbers that matter at exit. Because most now cover five or more companies, the best results come when they add outside execution capacity, especially for revenue growth.

  • Wide MAVAN featured image on a near-black background for an article on customer retention strategies, churn reduction, and net revenue retention. Orange dotted lines fan in from small orange dots along the left and right edges, converging toward the centered text. An orange label reads “Customer retention strategies.” The large white headline reads “Churn starts at the sale. Most teams fight it at renewal.” Below it, the solution reads “The fix: run retention as one system, then cut churn in seven steps, in order,” with “one system” underlined in orange. A supporting line invites readers to get the seven-step playbook, plus the latest net revenue retention benchmarks. The orange MAVAN logo is centered at the bottom.

    What Customer Retention Strategies Actually Reduce Churn?

    The customer retention strategies that reduce churn start before the renewal date. Keep the promise that won each customer, shorten the path to first value, and recover failed payments. Then trigger lifecycle messages on behavior, aim saves at customers who will respond, and track net revenue retention by cohort from one source of truth.

  • Wide MAVAN featured graphic on a dark navy-to-black background, framed by thin coral arcs on the left and right edges. A coral eyebrow reads “The Problem” above the white headline “After A PE Firm Buys A Consumer Brand, Growth Often Falls Short.” At center, a horizontal progress bar labeled “Planned value” is filled about three-quarters in coral and marked “Captured,” and a bracket under the empty remainder reads “Shortfall.” A caption cites Alvarez & Marsal’s 2026 finding that 41% of PE investors and operators captured less than three-quarters of their planned value over the past year. A second line cites FTI Consulting, 2026: the gap costs sponsors at exit, where buyers now rank margin growth as the top driver of value. The underlined answer recommends fixing the growth system before adding spend, so revenue grows faster than the cost of winning it. A coral MAVAN logo sits at the bottom.

    How Do PE Firms Accelerate Revenue And EBITDA Post-Acquisition?

    PE firms accelerate revenue and EBITDA at consumer brands by fixing the growth system before adding spend. They reconcile the numbers and cut spend that never pays back. They lift conversion and repeat purchases, and they judge growth by contribution margin. Growth operating partners such as MAVAN diagnose that system in 28 days, then help execute the fix.
