Amanda Blank, CEO of Founders Beauty Group, joins McGuireWoods partner and host Geoff Cockrell to discuss the growth of her strategic med spa platform, built on a hub-and-spoke model across four geographies through the acquisition of established, doctor-owned, cash-pay practices.

Amanda shares how she evaluated different capital sources during the company’s growth, including her decision to partner with high-net-worth family offices rather than private equity investors at that stage of the business, and discusses the factors that informed that approach.

She also explores why specialized industry knowledge matters for investors in the med spa sector, why GLP-1s are unlikely to serve as an anchor service, where durable competitive advantages exist in a relatively low-barrier market and how her experience leading a woman-owned platform has shaped the company’s growth.
