Addressing 3 unique advertising challenges
“I know 50% of my advertising works, but I just
don’t know which 50%.”
“I do not have cash to advertise.”
“How do I convince myself or my boss to invest our
limited funds in marketing, when returns are long-
term?”

2 Important Principles
![Page 9: Ravi Dhariwal, Times of India: Advertising Innovations](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051609/546f1106af795976298b599e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
How Brand Capital differs from the regular PE model
9
Traditional Private Equity Brand Capital
Cash Media is our currency
Supply-side capital • Financing factories, capacity
Demand–side capital
Board seats No board seats
No competing investments Partner with competitors • We fuel category creation
Exit-focussed Exit important; not time-bound
