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!!

No alternative text description for this image

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.

I built a $100K+ creator side hustle on LinkedIn from 0 to 40K followers in under 2 years. 

Now I help you do the same👇🏼

Most B2B professionals create great content but never get paid for it. 

I change that through Citrine Creator Accelerator and Citrine Talent Agency.



Here's what I do:

✨For aspiring creators:
The Creator Accelerator teaches you to position yourself as a paid creator, create branded content, and land your first $500-$3,000 partnership. After you graduate, you'll have an established portfolio, rate kit, and everything you need to land consistent brand partnerships. 


⭐️ For established creators:
Citrine Talent Agency takes over your partnership management. I renegotiate your rates (typically 15-30% increases), handle all contracts and payments, and advocate for you with brands. 
You just create content. 
My team does everything else from content strategy, timeline management and handling all comms. 


❤️ Why creators work with me:
I've been where you are. A posting about my corporate experience landed me my first brand partnership while I was an Account Executive. That deal funded side projects while I climbed to Head of Sales. 

💵 In two years, I generated over $100,000 in brand partnerships for my brand, as well as $70,000 in event sponsorships from corporate content houses and yacht events, all while helping 30+ creators land their first deals, and proving that this model works. 

Now I'm scaling what worked for me: a system that trains creators AND represents them professionally.

💫The bigger picture:
B2B creators are becoming the next wave of founders. 
Content creation is one of the most underrated ways to earn $2,000-$5,000+ per month. 
We're still early.

💰Our average creator: 12K followers, $3,000/month in brand income, full-time job intact.

If you're ready to monetize your LinkedIn presence, consider applying to join an agency or accelerator. 

📩 DM me or apply. 

I'll review your application and see if the Creator Accelerator or Talent Agency is the right fit.

4 careers in 10 years… One very confused Thanksgiving table😅
I used to panic when family asked “So what are you doing now?” at Thanksgiving.

Because my answer changed every few years.

Teacher. Reporter. Sales.

I felt like I had to apologize for not having it figured out…

Like something was wrong with me for wanting more

For wanting different



This Thanksgiving I’m sitting at the table as a Founder & CEO of Citrine ⭐️ 

I got laid off in July.
And instead of spiraling… I built

I stopped apologizing for my winding path and started seeing it for what it actually was… 

Preparation with a side of delulu ✨


Every classroom taught me how to coach.
Every news story taught me how to tell one.
Every sales call taught me how to put myself out there.
Every pivot taught me I could survive starting over.

I wasn’t lost all those years.
I was becoming✨

So if you’re sitting at a table today feeling behind…
Feeling like your path doesn’t make sense…
Feeling like you have to defend your choices to people who want a simple answer…


Here’s your permission slip

You don’t have to know the ending to trust the journey.

Your twists aren’t mistakes

They’re the plot💕


Happy Thanksgiving to everyone mid-pivot ⭐️

You don’t need to have all the answers at the table 




What's the story you are telling this thanksgiving?

lots to celebrate 💐

I teach corporate creators how to make branded content on LinkedIn… And I just edited this video 100% through prompting 👇 

I didn’t have to cut, clip or edit anything… 

Instead I uploaded my raw clips and prompted underlord on Descript to: 

- remove any “ums”
- Add trending sounds to my reactions (ex: when I winked & when I was offended) 
- Add “Simon” the british AI voice over 
- to add zooms in and out where the video was clipped 
- add minimal captions 
- add a background blur 
- add a soft filter to my face to make me pretty (jk.. Not really) 

If you're a corporate creator drowning in editing software… try Descript

You know I love to host a party ✨ 

This years Friendsgiving I hosted for 20! 

Wish I got more recording during the party but I was having too much fun 🤩 



Party started at 5pm but it kept going until 2am 🤣 



Just posting this for fun… bc LinkedIn doesn’t always have to be about worrrkkkk 


What’s the dish you bring to a party? 

I’m always responsible for the charcuterie board 🧀

Day in the life as a remote content creator at ColdIQ 🧠

Switching from sales to content has been a wonderful experience❤️

I love how creative I get to be while thinking of ways to talk about GTM tech. 

For this special day I even got to get my Profit Generating Pipeline book signed by the NYT best selling author Leslie Venetz!! 
 

So come spend a 9-5 with me 👇🏼


#wfh #remotework #dayinthelife #9to5

I used to think 40K followers meant you’d made it… I was wrong👇🏼

When I started on LinkedIn, I studied the creators who were “making it.”

Left corporate
Built businesses
Turned personal brands into revenue

They all had one thing in common… 
40K followers✨

That became my number.

Not for vanity

… but because in my head, 40K meant “That’s when I’ll have my business.”


The week I hit 40,000?

It so happened to be the same week I went public with Citrine✨


Since going public 2 weeks ago

→ 100+ applications for my creator accelerator and talent agency

→ Brand new creators (3K–12K followers) landing their first paid deals

→ During Session 1 of the Accelerstor I told 12 new creators they have a brand deal and are getting paid…. Already ✨



And personally… I’ve generated over $200K on this platform. 

Brand partnerships, events, courses, referrals (all while climbing from SDR to Head of Sales) 


But honestly? 
The money isn’t even the best part


Because LinkedIn gave me 
💕Friends at my wedding
💕Real mentors and mentees
💕Business partners who started as DMs
💕120+ people Yacht parties I host annually
💕Conference stages I never imagined
💕LinkedIn Creators I now help land their first paycheck


Whether you’re at 2,000 followers or 20,000 or 40,000

This platform doesn’t just feed your bank account…

It feeds your soul 💕

30 minutes back in my day used to mean "catch up on emails I missed."
Now it means "grow the business I just launched."

That's the difference Mixmax is making for me right now.

Two weeks into running Citrine Creators, my LinkedIn creator talent agency, and I'm already managing brand deals, client onboarding, partnership pitches, and a pipeline that doesn't sleep.

I could be drowning.
But I'm not.

The Mixmax Copilots are handling the stuff that used to eat my mornings... drafting follow-ups, booking meetings, surfacing what actually needs my attention across 47 open conversations.

So that 30 minutes today? 

I spent it on a strategy call with a creator who's about to close her biggest brand deal yet.

THAT'S the work that matters.
THAT'S why I built this agency.

Not to become a human CRM, but to actually advocate for creators who deserve to get paid what they're worth.

If you're building something from scratch and can't afford to drop balls, Mixmax is worth your time.


#MixmaxPartner #ad

I’ve been teaching people how to tell stories for 10 years (Here is an easy way👇🏼)

First to a classroom of 7-year-olds
Then to a live TV audience
Followed by sales pitches

Now to LinkedIn creators who monetize their post… 

And here’s what I’ve learned after 10 years:

Nobody is a “natural” storyteller.

There are just people who learned the frameworks and people who haven’t yet.

Every time someone tells me I don’t know what to post on LinkedIn…

What they really mean is.. 
I don’t know how to structure what I want to say.

Because here’s the truth ✨

you’re not out of ideas.
You’re out of clarity.

Your posts don’t need to sound poetic.

They don’t need to be perfectly branded.

They just need a structure that connects what you know to why it matters.

That’s it



I’ve tested dozens of storytelling frameworks over the years.

These are the 6 that actually work on LinkedIn:

1. Hook–Story–Lesson
Grab attention. Share a relatable moment. End with a takeaway worth remembering.

2. Contrast Framework
Show the before and after. Nothing proves growth like transformation.

3. Numbered List
Fast, scannable, irresistible. Perfect for quick insights.

4. Question Thread
Curiosity = engagement. Ask something real, then surprise them with the answer.

5. Unpopular Opinion
Challenge what everyone else blindly agrees with. Fastest way to stand out.

6. Mini-Case Study
What you did. How you did it. What changed. Real proof builds real trust.



What I tell my creators is that you don’t need more ideas.

You need better frameworks to shape the ones you already have.

Storytelling isn’t just what makes people stop scrolling.

It’s what makes them remember who you are. ✨


Save this for the next time you’re staring at a blank page.

The story’s already in you!!! 
this just helps you tell it 


Ps: hi I’m Melissa Gaglione ⭐️ and I help aspiring and established linkedin creators get paid to post ✨

Check out my creator accelerator and talent agency 💫

I turned down a $3,500 brand deal last month...
And it was one of the best decisions I've made as a creator.

Here's what happened: The brand looked great on paper. 


But on the first call, they handed me a script and said, "Just post this."

No questions about my audience
No interest in my perspective
No room to make it mine

They didn't want a partner. 
They wanted a billboard 🥲 

So I said no...

When you start getting brand offers on LinkedIn, every DM feels like a win.

You worked hard for that "yes."

But here's what I've learned after $100K+ in partnerships:

Not every deal moves you forward...
Some pull you away from the creator you're actually trying to become 🤩 

The real power isn't in getting opportunities
It's in filtering them✨

I now run every partnership through 5 questions before I say yes:

1️⃣ Do their values align with mine? 
2️⃣ Do they see my value or just my reach? 
3️⃣ Is it actually mutually beneficial? 
4️⃣ Is the collaboration process healthy? 
5️⃣ Does this strengthen my brand's story?

Swipe through for the full breakdown 👆

And if you're scared to say no...remember this:
FOMO fills your calendar with the wrong opportunities!!!

One aligned "yes" is worth more than a hundred convenient ones

Choose partners like you choose friends 💕

Choose the right brand partnership partner

From the 70+ convos I've had with LinkedIn creator, I've learned they don’t have a content problem: they have a clarity problem.

They post, they engage, they show up…

But when I ask, “What do you want to be known for?”

They freeze

That one question decides everything:
→ Who follows you.
→ Who hires you.
→ Who remembers you.

If you’re not clear, your audience won’t be either.

This post walks you through how to define your “known for” and align it with how you actually make money.

My LinkedIn impression data and why video is the BEST performing!!!! 

I don’t know why people are avoiding posting videos on LinkedIn. 

LinkedIn has been testing and investing in the video features for the past year… and it’s not going to slow down. 

You’ll see that my videos live on LinkedIn for weeks and months! 

Always gaining impressions… 

It continues to outperform any text/image/carousel post for months. 

This is exactly how I got 50M LinkedIn impressions in 365 days… 

It’s exactly why I’m ranked number 11 as a top female US sales creator across all socials ❤️


STOP SLEEPING ON VIDEO!!

While creators fight for $500 Instagram deals…
The real money is on LinkedIn.

Because this isn’t just another social platform: it’s where business actually happens.

Creators like Lara Acosta, Sara Stella Lattanzio, Artur Perrella Glukhovskyy, Jake Ward, and Adam Robinson are proving that the future of influence isn’t about follower count...

it’s about access, trust, and authority.

✅ Verified audiences with purchase power
✅ Thought leadership content that converts
✅ Real leads, real pipeline, real ROI



The playbook is changing:

If you’re a creator, think less like an entertainer and more like a strategic partner.

If you’re a brand, stop buying impressions: start buying influence that drives business decisions.

Because the creators who master LinkedIn now...
will own the next decade of B2B marketing 🤩

I studied over 100 LinkedIn creator profiles and found 18 habits that are killing their growth… do this & not that 👇🏼

Because I don’t want to see you guys making the mistakes I see other accounts making. 

The difference isn't luck. 
It's not posting frequency. 
And it definitely isn't cracking the algorithm.

It's pattern recognition✨

Your brand isn't built on your best post but on your consistency.

One viral moment means nothing if the other 49 posts are forgettable. 

That's why I created this list: to help you avoid the traps I see destroying otherwise talented creators every single day.

Here's what I've learned about LinkedIn in 2025 (summarized):


⭐️Depth beats reach⭐️

The accounts winning right now aren't posting about everything. 

They own one lane, go deep, and become the go-to voice in that space. 

Talking about too many topics dilutes authority. 

But going in depth on a few builds authority! 



⭐️You can't automate authenticity⭐️

AI can draft a post for sureee 

But your perspective, your stories, your contrarian takes… that's where the magic’s is ✨



⭐️Credibility first, engagement second⭐️

Stop optimizing for likes. 
Start optimizing for respect ✨

The creators obsessed with being useful (or genuinely interesting) don't have to chase attention (because it finds them).

If you've been posting consistently but feel stuck, it's not the algorithm.

It's the habits you're repeating without questioning.

Ive learned that growth doesn't come from doing more…. It comes from doing different.

That's what this list is for 👇🏼

PS: Hi i'm Melissa Gaglione ⭐️ and I teach creators how to land brand partnerships on linkedin in my creator accelerator cohort. The next one starts in December and we are already halfway filled...

Nobody told me brand content had a formula… so now I’m telling you 👇🏼

Early on, I treated brand deals like a homework assignment…

Brand sends brief
I write the post
Everyone’s fine 

but……
the content was mid. 

And honestly? 
I knew it while I was writing it.

So instead I told a real story and just mentioned the tech productwhere it made sense.


That post outperformed everything else I’d made for them 💰

The brand noticed
They came back
And back


Because the truth is… 

The best brand content doesn’t feel like brand content.

It feels like something your audience actually wanted to read ❤️

80% value
20% brand

And my goal is simple…

Educate… entertain... inspire 


THEN mention the product. 

But subtly… Not a hard sell



Your audience isn’t dumb. 
They know it’s sponsored

But if you give them something useful first? They don’t care✨

Ps: hi I'm Melissa Gaglione ⭐️ and I create LinkedIn stars

In college I spent Black Fridays fighting crowds for garbage I didn't need. This year I'm looking for GTM tools that actually make me money (Here’s a deal for you) 👇 

Here's what Snov.io is doing this week 

50% off annual plans
30% off 6-month
10% off 3-month

November 24 - December 3.

And honestly? It's genius.

Because most B2B sales tools make you:
Book a demo
Talk to sales
Wait for custom pricing
Negotiate for weeks

Snov.io said "nah, we're doing Black Friday like everyone else."

Here's what you're getting if you grab it:
🌐 Buy and connect your domain in one place
📊 50 million fresh company profiles
📬build email and LinkedIn sequences in one dashboard 
📬 Create professional mailboxes without the technical nightmare 
🔥 Warmup your mailboxes AND Custom Tracking Domains 
📝 Plain text mode for better deliverability 
🎲 Spintax for unique warmup messages 
📬check and fix domain/mailbox health
📬Land in the primary inbox

👉 Check out Snov.io's Black Friday sale

P.S. This is the kind of B2B marketing I want to see more of. Clear pricing. Clear value. No "book a demo to learn more" gatekeeping. Just good software at a good price for a limited time.
