Private investment

The firm was founded by a serial entrepreneur, Mark J. McCreery, whose professional career includes starting over 30 new businesses, political and business consulting, and diverse real estate and investment holdings.
Private equity offerings
In addition to raising nearly $100M since formation for investments, the firm has participated in numerous private equity offerings with other like-minded investors. McCreery prefers “active investments” alongside other experienced stakeholders who create synergy to further the establishment of solid foundational aspects of successful commercial ventures — operational excellence, sound legal and accounting practices, clearly defined sales and marketing strategies and other key “best practices” of the proverbial business plan.
Super smart analysts
“Many investments are made that focus too much on investment returns or ROI. We all employ super smart analysts who will drill into the numbers. That is a good start, but in the South, you’ve got to focus on addressing and improving the human capital aspect — oftentimes the key to successful market disruption.”
