Tired of killing yourself for 10% growth? 20 minutes to learn how to go 10X.
10x is a systems redesign, not a mindset shift. I design operating systems for founder-led businesses so growth compounds instead of exhausts.
For founders and teams with proven revenue who want a company capable of growing 5–10X without burning everyone out
1:1 CEO Strategic Advisory
The reason most founders stay stuck at $1M–$10M ARR because they are running the business on heroic people and duct-taped tools.
Most “growth consultants” will tell you:
You need a better funnel
You need to optimize your ads
You need to hire a VP of Sales
They’re not wrong. But they’re only looking at one piece of the board.
Here’s what I’ve seen across SaaS, e-commerce, pharma, and travel: founders at the $1M–$20M stage hit a ceiling that has nothing to do with the marketing channel and everything to do with how the business actually operates.
Specifically:
Workflows are tribal knowledge. Sales doesn’t know what marketing is doing. Customer success works around a broken onboarding process. Leadership doesn’t know what’s actually driving retention.
Your tools are a frankenstein stack. You have 7–12 disconnected systems (HubSpot, Zapier, Segment, Slack, spreadsheets, Loom recordings). Data lives everywhere. Decisions are made on gut feel because nobody has a single view of reality.
Your team is exhausted. The best people are the ones solving the same problem three different ways because there’s no system. You’re hiring more people to manually do what should be automated.
Your paid media is a silo. Ads are optimized for CTR or CPC, not for the full journey. You spend $100k/month on ads. You don’t know if you’re actually profitable by channel, by persona, or by product.
That’s not a “growth problem.” That’s a “business operating system” problem. And here’s the uncomfortable truth: you can’t scale a broken system faster. You can only break it louder.

Every week I send a short, ultra-practical email for founder-CEOs who want to grow faster without burning out - covering revenue systems, better onboarding, cleaner operations, and how to think like an operator, not just a founder.
Why you should listen to me (instead of the 10,000 other people selling growth):
I Help You Design the 10X Version of Your Business - From First Principles
I’m not a “growth hacker.” I’m an operator.
I’m not here to sell you another “secret funnel” or "The Power of Yes".
I’m here to advise you to:
Product engineering & automation: Built systems, fixed broken workflows, automated away manual chaos.
Paid Media and marketing: Led strategy across channels for growing from 10% to 5X growth.
Building multiple companies from the ground up in many roles both on the ground and executive (And in between).
Multi-industry lens: I’ve worked inside SaaS, ecommerce, pharma, travel, and media. Same problems. Same underlying mechanics. Different surface.
Obsessive with systems thinking, first principles and helping people see the big picture.
What this means for you:
I don’t have a hammer looking for every nail. I start from your actual workflows, your actual tools, your actual constraints – and design a system that turns what you already have into a coherent growth engine.
Most consultants sell you a new platform or a new process. I sell you clarity and leverage from your current reality.
