Painting Company Partnerships · North America

Turn your trade into an asset.

We’re the anti–private equity partner for painting companies. We don’t strip and flip — we yoke up, do the work, and stay for the long haul.

The Anti–Private Equity Model

Most private equity buys to extract and exit. We buy to build — and we stay.

We make money the same way our partners do: through the health of the business we build together. That one fact changes everything about how we show up.

Typical Private Equity

Buys to extract, then exits in 3–5 years
Cuts costs to hit a number
Advises from a spreadsheet, at a distance
Wins whether or not you do

Aleph Ventures

Buys to build — buy-and-hold, no exit clock
Invests capital and leadership to scale
Embeds with your team and does the work
Only wins when you win — fully aligned incentives

Approach

Three ways to partner — you choose how far.

Whether you want a co-pilot or a clean exit into good hands, we structure the partnership around where you want to go.

Minority

Are roadblocks delaying your company from achieving the vision you have for it? Have you ever considered finding the right “Who” to help you get there, instead of spinning your wheels on the “How”? Our Minority (40–49%) partnership model brings our vested management team and an 8-figure infrastructure to the operations of your business. You maintain majority position and managerial control with Aleph filling the gaps to achieve your vision.

Majority

Are you ready to play a different role in your company, but still want to be part of the next chapter? As a majority equity partner, Aleph stands ready to provide the environment and leadership development to help make this transition a success for your business. In these scenarios, businesses would be doing over $4M in annual revenues and Aleph would typically take an 81% ownership position to remove all personal liability from the legacy owner.

Full Exit

Are you ready to see your business off into good hands? If you have built a great brand and a durable team, we are ready to talk. Aleph is uniquely positioned to bring the capital and leadership needed to support a buyout that honors the legacy you’ve built and fosters the future potential that you want to give all your employees.

See How It Works

Partnering With You

Yoke up.

With so many resources available to painting companies — conferences, podcasts, coaching programs, and vendors — why aren’t there more $10M+ businesses? We don’t believe there’s a knowledge gap. We believe there’s an execution gap.

So we pull alongside owners and yoke up — strength multiplied. Consistent execution is what actually drives scale, and it’s the work we do together, week after week.

Proof in the Painting

The Paris Painting story.

Like many founders, Jason Paris built Paris Painting through hard work, client focus, and team leadership. But in 2016, he made a pivotal shift: he stopped building a job and started building an asset.

By embracing partnership and developing a vested leadership team, Paris Painting achieved scalable growth and long-term stability. Today, the company exceeds $17M in annual revenue and operates as the kind of durable asset most founders hope to create.

Why the orange? It’s a nod to Paris Painting — where this all started. The color is our small, standing homage to the first proof that a trade can become an asset.

Built Different. Literally.

What makes us different.

Team

Scaling a business requires capital and, just as important, it requires leadership. We’ve spent a decade assembling a team of operators and strategists. Our infrastructure becomes your backbone.

Technology

Eliminate the guesswork of growth with our operating system. We use technology that provides real-time visibility into your sales plans, production metrics, and financial health — the tools to stabilize your operations and the predictive analytics to scale.

Transparency

From integrated business planning and marketing strategy to compensation models and operational structure, we believe in full transparency around the levers that drive growth. These are only a sample of the areas Aleph partners work on together to create clear, sustainable scale.

The Work

We don’t operate as advisors on the sidelines. We embed with our partners and their teams to drive execution. From weekly one-on-ones and team meetings to field coaching and financial trending, we engage in the consistent, week-by-week work that turns plans into results.

Ready When You Are

Let’s build something durable.

If you’ve built a great brand and a durable team, we should talk. No exit clock. No strip-and-flip. Just partners who yoke up and stay.
