The mandate usually starts when one of these becomes true.

  • Growth has stalled despite a strong product.
  • The founder is still carrying too much of the sales function.
  • Revenue is growing, but predictability is weak.
  • The company is entering new markets.
  • Sales needs professionalisation.
  • The board needs stronger commercial visibility.
  • Founder-led growth no longer works at current scale.
  • A new GTM strategy requires executive ownership.

Who I work best with

  • Founder-led companies entering their next stage
  • PE and VC-backed businesses requiring commercial acceleration
  • Established businesses undergoing commercial transformation
  • Companies entering new geographies
  • Businesses professionalising revenue leadership
  • Organisations that need a senior GTM and revenue operator
