Fractional leadership

Institutional Investor Relations Without Building the Entire Department.

An embedded IR function that owns the reporting cadence, investor communications and the re-up motion — so the relationship continues between raises instead of restarting at each one.

Fit

Who this is for

  • Sponsors with an investor base large enough to need cadence and too small to justify a hire
  • Firms where the principal is still writing every investor update
  • Teams heading into a second or third raise from the same investor base
  • Groups whose investor records will not survive diligence

Context

The problem this solves

Investor relations quietly becomes the founder's night job, and the cost shows up at the next raise.

  • Updates go out when there is news, not on a schedule
  • Questions from investors are answered inconsistently
  • Nobody knows which investors are actually likely to re-up
  • Distribution and capital call communications are improvised

Output

What we deliver

  • Reporting calendar and standardized update format
  • Investor communication templates for routine and sensitive events
  • Investor record and segmentation structure
  • Re-up and reinvestment motion with defined touchpoints
  • Inbound question handling protocol and response library
  • Ongoing execution of the cadence by our team

Ownership

What you own

  • Templates, calendars and records live in your systems
  • Investor relationships remain entirely yours
  • Your team can take the function in-house at any point
  • We document everything so a future IR hire inherits a running system

  • We do not solicit investors or raise capital on your behalf
  • We do not provide fund accounting, tax reporting or audited figures
  • We do not make representations to investors about performance
