Demand Revenue announces its GTM advisory services to help PE portfolio companies align the commercial functions responsible for turning growth plans into measurable revenue.
-- Demand Revenue has announced its go-to-market (GTM) advisory services for private equity firms and their portfolio companies, providing senior-level guidance on revenue strategy and execution. Led by founder Alan Gonsenhauser, the engagements identify disconnects across marketing, sales, product, and customer success, helping leadership teams translate growth priorities into a coordinated operating plan.

That coordination matters as private equity returns depend more heavily on portfolio companies’ operating performance, the team notes. McKinsey reported in 2026 that leverage and multiple expansion accounted for nearly 60% of buyout value between 2010 and 2022. With those sources of returns now less dependable, investors face greater pressure to improve how their businesses generate and sustain growth.
Gonsenhauser argues that setting a growth target does not mean teams agree on how to reach it. Different definitions of the ideal customer or a qualified opportunity can pull departments in competing directions. “Misalignment never appears as a line item on a quarterly financial report,” he notes.
The consequences become visible in day-to-day execution. Marketing may optimize for lead volume while sales questions lead quality, or a deal may close without a shared understanding of what the customer expects.
His advisory work examines the decisions behind those patterns. Agreeing on a target customer gives teams a common basis for choosing campaigns, qualifying opportunities, and setting expectations. It also helps executives assess whether a proposed growth initiative fits the customers the business can serve successfully.
As a certified GTM Partners advisor, Gonsenhauser uses the organization’s eight-pillar GTM Operating System alongside frameworks developed through his executive and advisory work. The framework connects market choices with sales progression, customer value, and expansion, helping leaders identify assumptions that differ between teams.
The assessment then informs shared scorecards and reporting that connect pipeline performance with retention. “Alignment is measurable, and it’s fixable,” Gonsenhauser explains. Reviewing these measures together helps management and PE operating partners assess whether the business is attracting suitable customers and retaining their revenue, alongside tracking new sales opportunities.
