I help early-stage B2B SaaS companies build their first real go-to-market strategy, complete with ideal customer profile, competitive positioning and sales scripts. I've led product marketing through 3 acquisitions, scaled companies 4-5x, and delivered $100M+ in revenue impact. Now I work with founders and small teams who need VP-level strategic thinking without VP-level overhead. --- WHAT I DO FOR EARLY-STAGE COMPANIES: → Product-Market Fit Validation I help you figure out who your customer actually is (not who you think it is) and what message makes them buy. There can be misalignment between who founders want to sell to and who will actually buy. My insights and correction on this decreased the sales cycle at Empire Render from 6 to 3 months. → Positioning & Messaging That Sells I translate "what you built" into "why customers care." I've positioned everything from cybersecurity to fintech to AI, always focused on what makes the sale happen, not what sounds impressive. → First GTM Strategy (From Scratch) I specialize in the 0-1 product marketing build -- starting from the ground up to develop a system you can use to scale your business as it grows. From the first marketing brief: customer personas, value props, messaging hierarchy, to channel strategy. This is the foundation everything else builds on. I've done this for companies that went on to successful exits. → Launch Strategy I've launched products across 28 global markets. I know how to prioritize when you have limited resources and how to create launch momentum without a big budget. → Founder-Friendly Approach I work with founders, not over them. You know your product better than anyone. I help you articulate why it matters and who will pay for it. Focusing on clear, strategic direction. --- WHO I WORK BEST WITH: - Pre-seed to Series A-C B2B SaaS companies - Founders who've built something but need help positioning/launching it - Teams of 2-15 people figuring out product-market fit - Companies preparing to launch or reposition for growth - Startups that need strategic direction but can't afford a full-time VP yet --- RECENT RESULTS: - Scaled MyCase 4-5x ($40M to $200M+ ARR) through positioning that supported acquisition - Launched products that generated $20M+ revenue through strategic GTM - Positioned developer platform that scaled to 28 countries via self-serve model - Built messaging frameworks that increased win rates 25%+ and reduced sales cycles 15% --- MY BACKGROUND: - Head of Product Marketing, MyCase (Legal Tech + Fintech) - Senior Director, Verimatrix (Cybersecurity) - Director of Marketing, Yahoo! - MBA, University of San Diego --- HOW I WORK: Most projects are 4-6 weeks, 10-15 hours per week. Typical engagement: $4,000-$8,000 for a complete marketing brief and launch strategy. I'm currently accepting 1-2 new projects. Let's talk about where you're stuck and how I can help you get unstuck.
