There are 2 things you should know about Cegments.

One//We’re a highly specialized firm working with executives and private equity sponsors to plan and execute critical transitions. There are no ‘pre-packaged’ templated go-to plans. Your business is unique, and we’ll treat it as such.

Two// Transitions can take many forms, from entering new markets and preparing for exit to integrating post-acquisition. Change can be hard to stomach. That’s why we work alongside marketing, sales, and operations for complete follow-through.

We’re good now, scroll on.

Industries we serve

Private Equity / Industrial Products / Engineering / Medical Devices / Scientific Instrument Manufacturing

Typical problems we help executives solve…

“Everything is a “strategy” - social, event, etc. Nothing is tied together or to the company’s financial goals…”
“We’ve recently purchased another company, and they are not integrated. From branding to commercial processes, we need to become one.”
“We’re expanding into new markets, and we need help formulating a go-to-market strategy that actually gets executed.”

Fractional services are focused on commercial excellence.

Measure what matters.

Well into 10 years of owning my first firm, I was yelled at by a CEO in the middle of a brand presentation where we were pitching a new tagline. Red-faced, pacing, and shaking his finger at the sky, he exploded, “You don’t know my business!!” He wasn’t wrong. I knew little about the intricacies of measuring nanoparticles in the electronic and life science manufacturing industries.

I went on, years later, to be the head of marketing for a few companies when I experienced his side of the table. Time and time again, the marketing agencies pitching me or doing the work didn’t fully understand my business. 

That’s the gap Cegments dares to fill. Knowing more about a client’s business enables us to make more informed marketing decisions and perform based on what matters to the client.
