Q&A
Brands have a powerful effect on everybody and impact our daily lives. I remember when I was a kid, I saw a Sprite commercial where Michael Jordan took a drink of Sprite and then dunked a ball from the free-throw line. I’d never had a Sprite, but I drank my first one that very same day. That memory sticks with me when I look for brands that truly connect with their end consumers today.
Building trust with our partners is one of the most important pieces of our job. There’s no better way to do this than simply working with them on the ground. Our partners look to us to be more than just a sounding board. We really add value in a relationship by rolling up our sleeves with entrepreneurs and working with them to solve the problems they face every day.
Competition helps us get better at our jobs every day. With so many groups with capital to invest, we work to differentiate ourselves to potential partners via our deep experience. We have the benefit of having worked with amazing brands throughout TSG’s history, and we bring that experience to work to help our partners grow, which helps set us apart from our competitors.
