Fractional Leadership for Startups

Founder-led sales got you here.
It won't get you to the next round.

I embed as your fractional commercial leader. Together we prove a go-to-market motion that works without you in every deal, then I hire the team to run it.

What the Research Says

Cash runs out for a reason. Often it's go-to-market.

70%

of failed VC-backed startups studied ran out of capital. CB Insights treats that as the final cause, not the root problem.

of those startups pointed to poor product-market fit. Knowing who buys and why matters before you scale spend.

19%

cited unsustainable unit economics. Growth only helps when each customer is worth what it costs to win.

Sound Familiar?

The hard part comes after the first customers.

"Every deal still needs me."

How I help

I work next to you to write down what works: who buys, why, what they object to and how you win. Then we test whether someone other than you can repeat it.

"We hired a sales leader too early, or we're afraid to."

How I help

I fill the seat first as your interim leader and find out what the role really needs. When you hire, you hire against real numbers instead of a guess.

"We're spending, but we can't say what's working."

How I help

We focus on a clear ideal customer, run small tests on message, pricing and outreach, and track the numbers your board will ask about.

"Investors want a repeatable plan."

How I help

I set up your CRM, forecast and reporting so the story in your deck matches the data in your pipeline.
