It’s difficult to stand up a marketing team in any situation, but particularly with a third party. I’m really glad we had Brian, because he had all that impact on the business and still delivered consistently.

Brian took some of our folks who don’t have expertise in marketing and surfaced their wisdom and their experience in a way that helped move our product understanding forward. That was extremely valuable and was part of my favorite outcomes. I still reference that slide deck daily.

Brian and his team have been critical to our success to date. We did not have a single dollar in SaaS revenue when we first engaged. He took us from defining our ICP to initial SaaS sales and through our continued growth to this point. We’ve exceeded our sales goals in each of the first three months of our operation and seem to be on a very exciting trajectory going forward.

Institutional investors can bring a lot to the table for your company, so it’s critical that you create the best pitch possible.
