This package is built for early-stage founders who are wanting to accelerate their path to building a successful startup with help from an experienced founder. Whether you're pre-launch, post-MVP, or in the middle of raising a round, this coaching plan is designed to meet you where you are—and help you go further, faster. You’ll work 1-on-1 with an experienced founder or operator to refine your strategy, overcome blockers, and build a company with real momentum. Available in 5- or 10-hour formats, this flexible package gives you high-leverage support across your most critical areas—from fundraising and GTM to team building and founder mindset. Common coaching activities include: - Fundraising Strategy & Pitch Feedback: Craft your story, build your deck, and prep for investor conversations. - Go-to-Market Planning: Validate your ICP, test channels, and drive early traction. - Product & Roadmap Feedback: Prioritize what to build (and what not to), based on real customer feedback. - Growth Experiments & Funnels: Design scrappy experiments to drive activation, retention, and conversion. - Hiring & Team Building: Recruit and retain early team members who raise the bar. - Founder Mindset & Focus: Manage stress, avoid burnout, and stay focused on what matters most. - Investor Updates & Board Management: Learn how to communicate clearly, build trust, and stay in control of your narrative. - Pricing, Packaging, and GTM Strategy: Get feedback on your model and position it to win. Each session is personalized to your needs—whether you’re trying to close your first 10 customers, raise a $5M seed round, or navigate early team dynamics. You’ll walk away with clarity, momentum, and a real partner in your corner.

Stanford MBA & Co-Founder | Launch Your Startup with Expert Guidance
Welcome to my profile! I've walked the complete entrepreneurial journey from idea to exit. As co-founder and CEO of Fronen Foods, I built a natural foods company from concept to national distribution, securing shelf space at major retailers including Whole Foods, Wegmans, Walmart, and Sprouts. I raised over $2.5 million from venture capitalists, angel investors, and even NFL quarterback Derek Carr, navigating the complex world of fundraising while competing in the highly competitive plant-based food sector. Whether you're strategizing product-market fit, preparing for fundraising, scaling operations, or navigating the inevitable challenges that derail most startups, I've been there. I can help you avoid the costly mistakes I made and accelerate your path to success using the hard-won lessons from building a company.
