As a founder on the road to Series B…

You have a big mountain ahead, fraught with perils.

While racing to find product-market fit you also have to build out GTM metrics that prove your business model, whilst building a sustainable organization ready to be capitalized, all while competition closes in.

You have few resources – every minute of O2 is critical.

Going at the speed you need to go to get to the peak is beset on all sides by the runway you have left in front of you. Every day counts. And you know “Default Alive” does not mean “Default Investable”.

You need all the help, on all the things, all the time.

Your job is fundraising. But it’s also operations. And strategy. But you also coded this. And know the science best. You don’t need more advice, you need help and you need it fast on mission critical activities.

After 15 years of hiring consultants, I want to help you how I wanted to be helped

Point me at fires. Now.

I’m an operator – my goal is Day-1 value. I know you have 12 fires burning at all times. Give me what you need out of your way and I’ll work to give you the space you need to operate on the important things that only you can do.

It’s a lonely job. Let’s talk!

I relied on the counsel of a few key people to think through the hard stuff. Have me dig into complex strategy tasks, review your pitch / board deck, or confidentially discuss big, scary ideas. I’ve been there. I’ll give it to you straight.

Relationships == Max Impact

I work integrated (fractional), building and leveraging real relationships with your team to maximize impact. There’s no other way I’ve seen it work. And if it doesn’t or cash gets tight, no hard feelings – that’s the hitch, right?
