Unlock founder-led sales
Build a GTM engine that scales from $0 to $20m
We de-risk sales for you & give you the tools to scale to Series A and beyond
“When we started working with Frank we had very little sales process, a janky CRM, everything was founder-driven, and no idea of 'what great looks like' in terms of actually building a sales engine. Fast forward - we've assembled a great team of AEs, Sales Leadership & founding Marketer. We've implemented SFDC and sales best practices (+ rigor) and a playbook. Most importantly, we've set up our initial team to ramp successfully. If you're in the early innings of B2B sales and are looking to avoid mistakes while gaining a force multiplier and trusted advisor, work with Frank.”
Jesse Zhang, Co-founder & CEO of Decagon
“Frank has a unique ability to define a strategy, align the team and drive execution that achieved our goals. Frank built our enterprise sales effort and developed the strategy to focus on financial services. This led to our success closing top tier banks within the first year of launch”
Stephen Ehikian, CEO Airkit & founder of RelateIQ
“Frank helped us build our v1 playbook along with introducing us to our founding sales teammate. We saved months of learning working with an experienced and strategic operator like Frank on all things revenue. If you need sales help 0-10m, work with Frank”
Ben Emmerich, CEO Tusk Logistics
