How I Help Companies Grow
Four ways I partner with founders and executives to unlock revenue — from diagnostic to hands-on leadership.
Sales Leadership & Revenue Acceleration
Strategic and hands-on support to build or strengthen your sales function — pipeline discipline, forecasting accuracy, team coaching, and go-to-market execution.
Fractional & Advisory Engagements
Available for selective fractional VP Sales / Sales Director roles and advisory board positions. Designed for high impact in 4–5 days per month.
Sales Process & Pipeline Audits
Quick diagnostic of your current sales motion with a clear 30/60/90-day roadmap to improve results.
Team Transitions & Enablement
Help engineering or product-led teams shift to modern SaaS and IoT selling motions with joint go-to-market strategies.

// 003 — How We Work
Flexible Engagements That Fit Your Needs
I work with a limited number of companies at a time. Engagements are structured for high impact with a limited time commitment — typically in the range of 4–5 days per month. This model works well for companies that need senior-level sales leadership, strategic guidance, or help scaling without adding a full-time executive.
Typical Flow
Diagnostic & roadmap (first 30 days) → Execution, coaching & process building → Transition to your internal team or ongoing advisory support.
I'm based in the Cypress/Houston area and prioritize work that delivers clear revenue results while respecting family time.
