Meet Our Third Party Marketing Team | Stacy Havener, Founder & CEO

At Havener Capital Partners, there are two sides to our mutual fund marketing and sales business. There’s what we do—help our investment management clients raise assets by connecting with RIA and family office investors and blending the best of inbound marketing with traditional outbound efforts.

However, there’s also who we are.

"Do it or don't. It's amazing how many things in life are that easy."

- Henry Rollins

Our sales and marketing system is adapted for every client because we know that each and every client brings something different to the table. Our team becomes a part of your team. We offer support in all areas of your business, but one of the most unique abilities we have at Havener is that we learn your story, help you find and communicate your truth, and empower your business to grow.

By this point you must be thinking, “Wow, those Havener Capital people sure sound pretty great. I’d love to know more about them!”

(Okay, maybe you’re not thinking those exact thoughts, but stick with us.)

We are kicking off our “Meet the Team” blog series so our clients, industry friends, and RIA/family office investors can get to know us a little better. We’re beginning the series with the boss lady who started it all: Stacy Havener.

Stacy was born and raised in Western Massachusetts (shout out to the 413). Today, she calls Newport, Rhode Island home.

She has a B.A. in English and is a self-confessed bookworm and “puzzle addict.” Seriously, it’s all the puzzles: crossword, jigsaw, Sudoku… — so, how did she find her way to becoming the Founder and CEO of Havener Capital Partners? Here’s how you’d pitch a book about her life to a publishing house:

“Award winning writer and literature major gets first job post-college working for high school soccer coach (who happens to be a $1B small cap manager launching a mutual fund) in order to save money to get a PhD and become a professor. Instead, she discovers a love for financial services and joins a third party marketing firm founded by Richard Sincere as his first employee. There, she develops a love for building a business. All her worlds collide, and voila: the typical entrepreneurial love story. It turns out that stories can be told with words or with numbers and no matter the industry, storytelling is powerful.”
