The Mindful Advantage

What makes Mindful Investors different? Simply stated, Mindful Investors bring more than money to your company.

Our team is comprised of former operators and entrepreneurs who have successfully built and sold companies. We understand the issues you face in growing your company and we know how to address them.

The Mindful team also includes a Board of Advisors that can help you and your management team to think through strategic, operating and funding alternatives and successfully execute your plan.

We have a depth of expertise that can help your company in critical operational areas including:

• The Natural/Organic Consumer. Our partners and advisors understand the needs and buying decisions of the consumer and have a proven track record building leading consumer brands. Whether it's product planning, design and testing, customer segmentation, packaging and positioning, customer acquisition, pricing and promotion planning and tactics, or off-line and on-line advertising, our partners and advisors have the expertise.
• Channel Expertise. Natural/Organic consumer businesses have complex channel structures. Small independents differ significantly from chains and club stores in their needs, decision processes, distributors and brokers. At Mindful Investors, we understand these differences and will help you navigate the path to success.
• Supply Chain Expertise. Sourcing, production planning and logistics are critical decisions for a company where product quality and integrity are paramount and capital is precious. We understand that these decisions are company specific and can change as sources and the competitive landscape evolves. Our team will help you to evaluate viable alternatives and make the right decisions while preserving future operating flexibility.
• Operating Infrastructure. At Mindful Investors, we are acutely aware that the operating needs of a $5 million business are materially different from those of a $20 million business let alone a $50 million business. We possess the managerial experience to build operating infrastructures that are affordable and scaleable. Most importantly, we have access to resources and relationships that can make this happen quickly.
• Management Teams. There is no substitute for a strong management team. At Mindful Investors, we can help you identify gaps in your team and fill them with experienced, highly qualified individuals sourced from our significant network.
