After college, our founder, Stacy Havener, took a job with her high school soccer coach—a $1B small cap equity manager—to help him launch a new fund. Her goal wasn’t to build a career on Wall Street; it was to earn enough money to pay for grad school to become a professor. Stacy was a writer, a poet, a storyteller—not a fancy financier. She was a blue-collar kid from a working-class town who got the “wrong” degree from the “wrong” school. She didn’t belong on Wall Street...
It turns out that in an industry full of men who love numbers, there was a place for a girl who loved words.
After helping her soccer coach launch and grow a new fund to $500mm in two years, she joined a third-party marketing firm as the first employee and continued to raise money for investment boutiques. She launched or restructured over 25 funds and raised over $5B over the next seven years.
Stacy launched Havener Capital Partners to help start-ups, new funds, and boutiques—the “underdogs” of the investment world—using her unique approach to raising money. Since the firm’s founding in 2010, Stacy has been breaking down the repeatable process behind her success, developing the Billion Dollar Blueprint™, a sales and marketing framework for boutiques built around two core components: authenticity and storytelling.
Havener Capital Partners is now regarded as one of the leading independent sales and marketing firms in financial services. Our proprietary framework helps investment boutiques find their target investors and grow their AUM, in spite of the industry dynamics favoring the “bigs.”
We are here for the challenge, though.
Our Blueprint has now raised $8.5B, which has led to $30B in follow-on AUM... and we’re just getting started.
