Working with the right service providers is at the heart of every successful business. Today’s guest, Lori Gleeman, Founder and CEO of Soul Equity Solutions, combines her two superpowers in business development and recruitment to connect private equity firms to service providers at the top of their game. In today’s episode, she tells us how she developed this niche for herself and her role as a professional services concierge. She shares her two priorities when pairing providers with firms: industry-aligned experience and excellent references, and we discuss the role of building strong relationships and generating trust. Lori also tells us why she introduces private equity firms to each other as a complementary value add. Next, she reveals the details of her unusual pricing structure and shares her three-part goal to help firms to gain knowledge, save money, and learn from other clients. Hear how Lori has leveraged her strengths and her network to build a successful business that offers massive support and value to both service providers and private equity firms.
