The numbers on your desk

Efficient growth, the way investors measure it now.

Your calendar

Pipeline that doesn't depend on you being in every deal.

What we hear from founders

You're still the best seller in the company.

That's normal at this stage, and it's also the ceiling. Buyers make up their minds before they talk to anyone, and the first go-to-market hire is the most expensive one to get wrong.

Go-to-market is the top concern founders report, with AI strategy closing the gap.

We work with you and whoever you have today, from your first sales hire to a marketer or two. The goal is an engine your own team runs, with you back to building the company.

You

Someone senior who has done this before, so you can step back from deals without losing the thread.

First sales hires

Target accounts, messaging and a playbook they can run from day one.

Marketing

A pipeline target for each channel, so effort goes where it pays back.

Your board

A go-to-market plan and a weekly scorecard you can put straight into the board deck.

Your next leader

When it's time to hire a VP, we help define the role and hand over a working engine.

Questions

What founders ask us.

Should I hire a VP of Sales or a VP of Marketing first?

It depends on where growth is stuck, which is what the diagnostic answers. Many founders hire before they know the constraint and end up with the wrong leader. We help you make that call with your own data.

Is it too early for you?

We work best from about $1M ARR, with paying customers and a CRM that has at least a year of deal history, even if it's messy. Before that, the job is usually finding product-market fit.

Will I still need to sell?

Yes, for a while, and that's a good thing. Founders who step out of sales too early often stall growth. We build the engine around you, then hand deals to your team as it proves it can win them.

How is this different from hiring an agency?

Agencies usually run one channel. We work on the whole engine: who you sell to, what you say, how you price and which programs build pipeline, with senior people who have run growth inside PE- and VC-backed companies.

What does it cost compared with a hire?

Less than one senior hire, and about 75% less than building a full in-house growth team in year one. The in-house team cost calculator on our home page shows the comparison with your own numbers.
