FAQs: Our Operating Partner Offering

01 How is eComplete different from other operating partners?

Unlike traditional advisors, we’ve run and scaled digital and eCommerce businesses ourselves, from £5M to £1B+. We don’t just identify the strategy; we execute it. Our embedded teams take ownership across marketing, operations, supply chain, tech, and commercial decision-making to deliver real commercial results.

02 Do you offer operating partner support for VC as well as PE firms?

Yes. We support both VC- and PE-backed businesses. Whether they need help scaling fast, fixing operational bottlenecks, or preparing for their next raise or exit. We adapt our approach to suit the stage and structure of the investment.

03 What kind of businesses do you support?

We typically work with digitally native brands, DTC businesses, and eCommerce operators in the £5M–£100M revenue range. This includes portfolio companies owned by PE/VC, founder-led businesses preparing for exit, and assets owned by family offices or strategic acquirers.

04 Can eComplete act as interim leadership?

Yes. We can place interim C-level, GM, or functional leads into businesses to stabilise and scale operations during key phases. This is particularly valuable post-acquisition, during team restructures, or while building permanent internal teams.

05 How does your engagement model work?

We tailor each engagement to the deal or business need. This may include short-term intervention, post-acquisition support, or long-term embedded operating partner relationships. We work directly with investment teams or alongside portfolio company leadership.

06 Do you support international growth?

Yes. wWe have deep experience in launching and scaling eCommerce brands across Europe, the US, Asia and other global markets. We manage market entry, logistics, localisation, and international digital execution.

07 Can you help pre-acquisition too?

Absolutely. We regularly support investors with commercial due diligence, digital audits, and growth mapping to validate the opportunity and de-risk the investment.
