Commercial Due Diligence BCG / Highground Acquisition

The 'Invisible Market' Problem

The Challenge

Client needed to validate an acquisition target in the HVAC sector. The market was fragmented ('Mom & Pop' shops) with zero digital footprint. Standard research failed (<5% response).

The Solution

Identified a lateral dependency: Plumbers hold the referral network for HVAC installs. Pivoted search to source referral data from plumbers rather than direct competitor contact.

Value Creation

Revenue is the Only Metric That Matters.

In my first month at Dialectica, I generated $50,000 in revenue (team high) by treating the role as consulting, not sales. I analyzed the client's project flow and proposed solutions they hadn't asked for yet.
