Revenue Reimagined

It’s not surprising that many startups struggle. With so many variables in play, it’s just a fact of doing business. Over 20% of startups fail in the first year, and only 50% make it past five. 

Revenue Reimagined is a full-cycle Go-To-Market (GTM) agency helping founders & revenue leaders transition from founder-led sales to product-market fit (PMF). All while scaling responsibly. 

Gut-feeling, trial & error, or advice from those who haven’t successfully built from the ground up before isn’t the way to play & WIN the game. Lots of “consultants” promise “tons of leads” or “expert training” to fix your underperforming revenue. The fact is, one size... doesn't fit all. 

Having partnered with dozens of clients, and driven hundreds of millions in revenue, we’ve realized that every client is different. 

Our data-centered proprietary ALIGN process and GTM data analysis is unique and customizable. Not the “cookie cutter” playbook you see repeatedly online. We help build out proven systems to predictably grow revenue across MARKETING, SALES, CUSTOMER SUCCESS, and REVENUE OPERATIONS (RevOps) as one collaborative revenue function because working in silos doesn't lead to growth.

Revenue Reimagined By The Numbers:

✅ Over $425MM+ in revenue generated 
✅ $64.5M funding secured 
✅ $3.6M+ in operational expense (OpEx) savings
✅ 25+ different startups across 6 different countries 
✅ SMB to F500 sales
✅ Led teams from 2-150 with over 143 promotions influenced

The Sales Change Agent

Overview:  After 20+ years of being in the sales profession and 10+ years in sales leadership there have been patterns that have emerged which have been proven to drive and scale revenue within organizations.  I work with C-level executives and founders to understand their "real" current state and map out an iterative process to scale the sales organization based on agreed-upon goals.  Here are 4 high-level pillars we work on to scale the sales organizations (these pillars build on each other):

1. Setting Expectations: This first item is the most important item - if unrealistic expectations are being set with either the sales team or the executive team it will be almost impossible to hit your goals.
 ✔ Including hiring and on-boarding of your sales team

2. Data-Driven Decision:  It is surprising how many organizations are managing the company by "gut" feel.  I recommend that you get a handle on the following data points:
 💲 Close Rate
 💲 Deal Velocity
 💲 Average Deal Size
 💲 Churn Rate

3. Sales Pipeline:  This is not just a pure numbers game, we are talking about a "real" pipeline - the health of your organization will be based on your pipeline
 ✔Example - If your close rate is 25% then you will need at least 4 times your revenue target as pipeline

4. Aligning to the Buying Process:  This is where many organizations struggle, they are so focused on their sales process and the features/functionality of their product they forget the customer
 ✔Additionally, this is not a one-time process, this pillar needs to be revisited often as an organization scales and markets shift.

Additional items I work on with companies:
✔ Build a culture based on servant leadership
✔ Compensation review and plan designs
✔ Hiring and interviewing candidates
✔ Technology stack analysis
 
Summary:  Sales executives are expensive - Design and build a foundation for your sales organization so that you know when you scale the team they will be able to execute effectively and efficiently.

The count down to Leslie Venetz book event, looking forward to connecting today in Tampa!!

Congratulations, Leslie Venetz, on publishing your book!

I highly recommend Profit Generating Pipeline, one of the biggest challenges all customers are struggling with, the PIPELINE., This book will point you in the right direction.

B2B companies are jumping into AI fast.

The smart ones are doing something the rest aren’t: starting with a charter.

I’ve seen this across startups and global enterprises. 

Teams rush to test AI, but without governance or alignment, things break down:
1️⃣ Marketing pushes out GenAI content.
2️⃣ Sales pilots lead scoring.
3️⃣ Ops automates workflows.

Great experiments. Terrible coordination.

And when those efforts aren’t tied to revenue, customer value, or a long-term business strategy, they stall or die quietly.

An AI Charter changes that.

It defines why your company is investing in AI, what outcomes matter most, who governs which initiatives, and how success will be measured.

It ensures your AI isn’t just innovative. It’s accountable and strategic.

Do you have a charter in place? Or are you still managing pilot chaos?

Here’s the problem with most AI efforts: they stay small.

You don’t win in B2B by testing AI. 

You win by scaling it.

An AI Charter gives you the alignment. 

But the next challenge is execution.

This is where most companies get stuck. They launch a few use cases. Results are mixed. 

Teams lose momentum.

To scale with impact, you need to:

Focus on AI use cases tied to pipeline velocity, customer experience, or account expansion.

Use shared business KPIs, not isolated data metrics.
Integrate AI tools into how GTM teams already work.
Govern consistently, with clear roles and recurring reviews.

If your AI efforts aren’t producing real commercial outcomes, it’s time to revisit how you’re executing.

What’s the biggest blocker your team is facing as you try to scale?

This is a great opportunity and if you want a "fast pass" send me a 30 second video and I can get you a meeting with the CEO!

If AI is part of your future, the AI Charter is your operating system.

Most B2B organizations still don’t have one. That’s a mistake 🛑 !

An AI Charter isn’t about compliance. It’s about business clarity.

Here’s what it should include:

1️⃣  A clear purpose statement tied to your business model.
2️⃣  Long-term goals linked to revenue impact, customer retention, or operational efficiency.
3️⃣  An AI Council with stakeholders from GTM, product, operations, risk, and data.
4️⃣ A prioritization and execution framework that focuses on business impact, not experimentation.

When AI is embedded in sales, marketing, and customer success, it becomes a strategic asset.

When it stays in the lab, it’s just another cost center.

If you were writing your charter today, what’s the first outcome you’d prioritize?

The most effective go-to-market teams don’t just share goals. 

They work in sync.

When sales, marketing, and customer success are aligned, everything becomes easier:

👉  Leads turn into qualified conversations.
👉 Deals close with smoother handoffs.
👉 Customers stay longer because their experience is consistent.

But in many companies, these teams still work in silos.

It’s not because people aren’t trying.
It’s usually because each team is using a different playbook.

👉 Different definitions of success.
👉 Different data.
👉 Different timelines.

This slows everything down.

Solving it isn’t about adding more meetings or new tools.

It’s about creating a shared rhythm and making connections between teams part of how you work.

1️⃣  Clear handoff rules.
2️⃣  Shared definitions of pipeline stages and customer health.
3️⃣  Simple feedback loops that actually get used.

When those connections are strong, growth feels like progress, not pressure.

❓ Where do your GTM teams naturally align today?

That’s your starting point.

Most automation fails because we start with AI.

We should start with purpose.

Every job in your company exists to achieve an outcome. Until you define those outcomes and understand the context around them, AI will feel like a patchwork solution.

Jobs To Be Done helps you see:

✅ What should be automated
✅ What must remain human
✅ And how both can work together in a unified system

AI does not replace work. It redefines it. But only if we define the work first.

Me at a gay bar last night… my friend: “Trump being our first out(ed) LGBTQ+ President was not on my BINGO Card.”

Me, a fellow Gay™️: “Really? With that much gender affirming care? Between the Jersey Shore look, the cheap wig, an Vance’s eyeliner, we all know who’s having the ice salad and who’s ordering the steak, if you know you know, wink wink nudge nudge.”

A gay guy showing his straight girl friend around the bar: *spits drink out laughing onto girl by accident*

Me: “See? Even we spit. Donnie Josephine Trump sure as h*ll doesn’t.”

Ready isn't a feeling, it's a choice.

Do your due diligence, sure, but you do not have to have it all figured it out. 

Launch that business, get it wrong, reiterate, get the feedback, churn that customer, drop that ball, live and learn.

Being ready doesn't mean you won't make mistakes.

Being ready means you're deciding that you need to allow yourself to do your best, which means you will make mistakes, and you will learn from those mistakes, and you will keep doing this til the day you die.

You got this, boo.

A lot of founder-led companies stall out for one simple reason: They hire Business Development before they build Marketing. BD is not a band-aid for founder burnout, folks... it is a scaling function. Marketing is the prerequisite.

If you don’t have:
• positioning
• ICP
• a narrative
• content
• demand-gen
• enablement
• a POV

…BD will fail.

I have zero success stories of the “BD first, marketing later” model working. Not one.

It’s a sequencing issue.

Your decisions determine whether you grow — or stall.

Every founder thinks they’re the exception. And every time, I watch the exact same story play out: A founder-led company hits that weird middle stage
