Helping early-stage technical founders get their first sales motion working
Early-stage technical founders rarely fail because the product is wrong. They struggle because getting the first real sales motion working is hard.
I work hands-on with early-stage technical founders to help them turn complex B2B products into their first repeatable revenue. That means embedding directly — pressure-testing positioning, running early sales conversations, opening initial markets, and helping founders build a sales motion that works before scaling.
I’ve spent 25+ years working with founder-led technology companies, selling complex products into enterprise buyers and helping teams overcome early commercial challenges like unclear messaging, stalled early pipeline, market entry without local teams, and founder-led sales that don’t yet scale.
My work typically focuses on:
• Early-stage go-to-market and revenue diagnostics
• Hands-on market entry and first enterprise deals
• Fractional sales leadership before a full-time hire makes sense
I work best with founders who have strong technical products, early traction, and need experienced execution to move from early wins to repeatable revenue.
If that sounds like your situation, a go-to-market reality check is usually the best place to start.
