For firms that built their category and now have to defend it.
NICHE LEADER CONTEXT
/ 01 WHO IS THIS FOR?
You built your category, and for years your results spoke for themselves. Now newer, smaller firms are getting attention in your exact niche, and you’re starting to be seen as “the old guard” instead of the standard.
This package is for firms in that position, i.e. the ones with strong track record, existing distribution assets already in place, whether that’s a community, a program, or a media presence, but none of it working hard enough to hold your ground against louder, newer competitors.
/ 02 TYPICAL CRITERIA
Meaningful AUM ($90M+) or revenue ($5M+) accompanied with a long track record.
A defined thesis backed by recognized outcomes or exits, not just a stated position.
Existing relationships and reputation within your niche, even if underleveraged publicly.
Some existing owned asset, whether a fund, community, program, or body of research.
Appetite for a multi-year investment, not a one-time deliverable.
/ 03 WHAT'S INCLUDED
Detailed research and strategy phase: LP and founder profile research, competitive mapping, distribution channel definition.
Complete brand identity and website built to reflect category authority.
A long-term distribution architecture: this may include a program, competition, research series, print assets, or formalized community, defined during strategy.
/04
For firms at this stage, the transition ahead carries immense risk & it requires only people with deep context in the space, and they actually care about getting it right.
