Lead quality got you down? Growth stalled? Can't get to the next level of revenue?

Let me guess (and stop me if this sounds familiar)...

Sales says Marketing is sending through junk leads that waste their time. Marketing says Sales can't close the leads they're sending.

You thought once you had the teams in place you'd be able to grow. But things just aren't scaling. And you don't have the bandwidth to try to identify where the friction and gaps are - nor how to fix them.

Here's where I can help.

I started my career in Marketing, I moved into Sales Enablement and Sales Ops. Then back to Marketing. But don't let the titles fool you.

Now, I help the two play nice. Together.

Here are some symptoms you may be experiencing internally that indicate your teams are misaligned:
* lead quality is low
* no lead segmentation
* scoring models do not exist
* inbound and outbound not worked well together
* playbooks and best practices do not exist
* internal team blame and pointing fingers
* disagreement on term definitions ("MQL" "SQL" "SQO")
* the “old way” of doing things is getting in the way
* legacy Marketing & Sales tools and systems have accumulated tech debt
* fast growth and M&As have led to disparate teams no longer on the same page
* process isn’t consistent
* documentation is nonexistent
* new LOBs / new markets are unobtainable
* inability to scale

As a RevOps specialist I help B2B companies spark growth with:
→ Sales + Marketing alignment
→ Inbound / Outbound motions integration
→ HubSpot / Salesforce optimization
→ ICP definition
→ Persona refinement
→ Scoring models
→ Lead routing
→ CRM optimization
→ Team training
→ Tech stack buildouts
→ Documentation and playbooks
→ KPIs and Dashboards

I work with companies $10M+ ARR to accelerate their revenue.

Some stats:
📉 Decreased Sales cycle by 80%
⬆️ 3X MQLs over previous period
⚙️ Improved MQL to SQL conversion by 14.3%
👋 Increased visits to website pages by 160%
💸 Drove $36K in top-line revenue via social media

Co-founder @ Shape & Scale | Orchestrating growth through HubSpot & RevOps | Ex-marketer

𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲, 𝗶𝘁 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗯𝗲 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝗺 𝗼𝗳 𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘀. 

This belief led me to co-found Shape & Scale with Suzanne Block. 

We orchestrate growth for our clients through PR, RevOps, and HubSpot. 

PoV, people, processes, and technology. 

That's what we do. 

And we do it for SaaS and technology companies – from seed to SME. 

𝙉𝙤𝙬, 𝙖 𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙩𝙡𝙚 𝙖𝙗𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙢𝙚.

As a first-generation immigrant born in Holland to a Pakastani father, I never took the easy route. 

For ten years, I  worked as a waiter, bartender, and bar manager in the service industry.

It taught me more than I could imagine.

A 14-year veteran of marketing agencies, I've led cross-country video shoots, managed web and app projects, and most recently scaled a digital practice from $0 to $2,000,000 in three years. 

I guess you could call that full-stack 📚?

Working with Enterprise clients like Verizon, Deloitte, and Microsoft to consulting with fast-growth start-ups like IronNet has given me a broad view of what works and what doesn't.

In addition to my client-side experience, I was an agency operations leader with expertise in defining processes, implementing growth strategies, refining delivery and partnerships, and building high-performing teams and tech stacks.

Of all the clients I've worked with, the ones that succeed understand these three fundamentals: 

• The 𝙥𝙤𝙬𝙚𝙧 of alignment. 
• The 𝙞𝙢𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚 of data.
• The 𝙣𝙚𝙚𝙙 for product market fit.

Hit me up any time – DM or email. I'm always willing to help if I can and love talking shop.
