And do we have any special resource advantages?
The game we're playing is about playing in the lower end of the lower middle market.
Almost every deal we do is of some $10 million without business.
The number of at-bats that we see compared to an upmarket strategy, it is night and day different.
We have so many more targets that we can pursue within our strategy.
We are buying from founders.
We're the first institutional investor.
We're buying fundamentally solid businesses, but where there is so much value that an experienced institutional investor like us can have.
So we're trying to play what we call the game on easy mode.
I think that's been a big driver.
In terms of the team, we have a big team.
We mentioned that.
45 people.
That is large, especially relative to the fund size that we have.
One of those investments that we've made is we have a full-time director of people.
That's become more and more popular in private equity.
A lot of times, though, that people person focuses on portfolio companies.
Our director of people spends all of her time recruiting, training, and ensuring that we're living out our cultural values and that people can make great careers at the firm.
We also work with an executive coach.
He works with the partners.
