Your CAC payback is stretching and you're not sure if it's a pricing problem, a GTM problem, or a market problem.
Your board asked a question last quarter you still don't have a clean answer to.
Outbound was working. Now it isn't. You don't know exactly why.
You're the best salesperson at your company and that terrifies you.
You have advice coming from everywhere — investors, LinkedIn, advisors. None of it is grounded in what's actually happening inside your company.
You're holding the product, the team, the metrics, and your own mental health. At the same time. Every week.
That's not a "you" problem. That's a support problem.
Full Stack CEO is the support system you wish you had earlier.
Raised collectively
Exits across the network
Unicorns built or scaled
in the room
WHO'S IN THE ROOM
Real mentorship, active participation, and direct feedback from CEOs, VCs, exited founders, and Tier 1 operators who've gone from 0 to exit. Operator-led. Boardroom-tested.

“I've worked with companied from 98,000 employees and $30B in revenue to 5 employees and $1M in revenue. I've acquired and been acquired. I've been through an IPO and also through a meltdown. I've seen a lot and I'm here to help CEOs make better decision from day one.”

“I've been a CEO and I know it's a pretty lonely job. There's a million things to navigate. I've sat on many boards and my objective is to be a truth teller to CEOs. To provide them with insights to course correct and make the best decisions for the best path forward.”

“I've done pretty much all of the roles inside in software service company from strategy to pre-sales, sales support, consulting, HR, and CEO. I have a 360 view of a company today across several industries. My objective is to help founders go from origins to Series B.”

“I've led product and digital at 4 different hypergrowth stages. Smallest scaled it from $5M to $25M. Largest from $250M to $340M. All four led to an acquisition. This next chapter in my life is about value creation, mentoring, advising. I sit on six board and I'm here to help.”
Plus operators from Goldman Sachs, Bain, McKinsey, LinkedIn, Canva, Salesforce, Google, New Relic, Intuit, American Express, Techstars.
why this exists
I built this because the support I needed didn't exist.
When the board was asking questions I couldn't answer cleanly. When I didn't know if the problem was me or the market. When the raise wasn't closing and I had no one to call who'd actually been there, with no agenda and no reason to tell me what I wanted to hear.
I've spent 15 years on both sides of this, scaling B2B SaaS to $50M ARR, helping teams raise $396M and hit unicorn status. And then living the dark side. Board pressure. Firing. Identity collapse. Rebuilding from scratch.
I also sit on the other side of the table as a GP at Aventra Capital. I know what investors are actually looking for when they look at your deck. Full Stack CEO is what I built so you don't have to figure all of that out alone.

Always-on. Stage-specific. Private Slack. Operator AMAs. Template library. The place that's open every week. Not just when you sign up for a sprint.

12 weeks. 8–12 founders at your exact stage. Your actual company, worked live every session. Demo Day in front of investors. Pre-Seed, Seed, Series A, or Series B.
WHO THIS IS FOR
For VC-backed B2B SaaS and AI founders (from pre-seed to Series B) who are building something real but don't yet have the operators, the system, or the room to get there as fast as the opportunity demands.
From first revenue to a motion your first AE can run without you.
THE GLOBAL OPERATING STANDARD
Complete 10 of 12 sprint requirements. Present at Demo Day. Walk away with a certification that tells every investor, board member, and future hire exactly what you built — and how you proved it.

Note: This is not a certificate for showing up. It's a credential for doing the work — with evidence.
You're spending more to acquire customers than they're giving back
You're 3–6 months from needing to raise and you're not ready
You're still the best salesperson at your company, and that has to change
You know AI is coming for your category and you don't have a clear plan yet
