DealBuddi

I guide DealBuddi’s vision and partner with B2B founders, owners and sales teams to turn expertise into predictable, scalable revenue.

Strategic direction
• Define the product roadmap, brand positioning and go-to-market priorities
• Translate long-term vision into focused quarterly sprints so the team ships features that matter

Sales strategy co-creation
• Work directly with founders to turn big goals into an actionable plan grounded in Sales Market Fit and the 5ATE method
• Move organisations from hope-based selling to proactive demand creation

Playbook integration
• Build repeatable messaging frameworks, qualification guides and deal checkpoints that new reps can use from day one
• Map every activity to the buyer’s journey so value is clear at every stage

Coaching and upskilling
• Run workshops, pipeline reviews and live deal sessions to lift individual and team performance
• Provide ongoing feedback, role-plays and metric reviews to make new skills stick

Deal de-risking
• Act as the trusted advisor on the team’s shoulder, surfacing hidden friction and navigating stakeholder politics
• Quantify ROI and craft business cases that move prospects from interest to commitment

AI-driven scale
• Codify successful patterns into DealBuddi AI agents, giving teams on-demand guidance and tailored insights
• Continuously learn from wins and losses so every engagement makes the next one smarter

My goal is simple: make sales feel less overwhelming and more inevitable—one founder, one team, one deal at a time.

Our B2B SaaS Journey Podcast

As Co-Host of Our B2B SaaS Journey, I lead conversations that unpack the unfiltered reality of building a B2B SaaS company from ideation to (hopefully) exit. 

Together with my co-founder, I share the wins, missteps, and frameworks that shape how we build SixSides, an event and community engagement platform.

Core Responsibilities

Content leadership: Shape episode themes around the real problems and decisions we face as early-stage founders.

On-air hosting: Co-present weekly podcast episodes, providing perspective from my role as Sales/Marketing Lead.

Storytelling: Translate raw founder experiences into practical lessons and playbooks listeners can apply in their own companies.

Audience engagement: Encourage listeners to subscribe, share, and interact across platforms (Apple, Spotify, YouTube, LinkedIn, Substack).

Community building: Position the podcast as a transparent, founder-led record of building SixSides, helping other SaaS founders learn in real time.

What the role represents
This isn’t just hosting a podcast. It’s documenting a startup in the messy middle, sharing frameworks like Sales Market Fit and founder-led go-to-market, and proving that building in public can be as valuable for the founders as it is for the audience.

Co Host

SixSides

As Co-Founder responsible for Sales and Marketing at SixSides, I'm dedicated to re-inventing the way communities connect, engage, and grow through innovative event technology. 

At SixSides, our platform is designed to deliver unique value for each side of an event community; Event Organisers, Attendees, Sponsors, Speakers, Associations and Staff.

Leveraging my extensive experience in strategic sales, marketing, and community engagement, I help organisations create exceptional event experiences that foster meaningful connections and drive measurable outcomes. 

My role involves developing and implementing strategies that highlight SixSides’ unique capabilities, including gamification, real-time networking, and insightful analytics, enabling our clients to achieve sustainable growth and profound community impact.

I believe in the transformative power of events to build stronger communities, amplify brands, and foster collaboration across industries.

Let's discuss how SixSides can help you elevate your community through memorable event experiences.

Sales Market Fit

I help B2B founders transition from founder-led sales to a structured, scalable, and repeatable sales approach by finding their Sales Market Fit—the missing piece in most startups’ growth strategies.

Through a proven, structured approach, I help startups:
✅ Develop a repeatable sales framework that doesn’t rely on just one person’s skills
✅ Shift from ad-hoc selling to a process-driven approach that delivers consistent results
✅ Build and enable high-performing sales teams with the right tools and strategies
✅ Shorten sales cycles, increase close rates, and make sales a driver of growth rather than a bottleneck

I’ve seen too many startups struggle with unpredictable revenue, stalled deals, and sales teams that just don’t perform. 

The problem isn’t the people—it’s the lack of a structured approach to selling. Without Sales Market Fit, scaling sales is impossible.

My methodology ensures that startups position themselves correctly in the market, craft compelling messaging, and optimise their sales process for repeatable success.

If you're a founder looking to get control of your sales function, scale beyond yourself, and build a winning sales team, let’s have a conversation!

Head of Growth & Partnerships

Most businesses leave their growth to chance, hoping their sales process clicks or their events spark engagement. I know, because I used to do the same.

As a sales leader and later a founder, I saw how outdated sales playbooks and underpowered event tools caused wasted opportunities, friction, and stalled growth. 

I was frustrated, because even talented teams and passionate communities couldn’t prove their true value.

That’s what drove me to rethink both challenges from first principles. I built Sales Market Fit to break sales down into something teachable and repeatable, and I co-founded SixSides to help leaders turn events into lasting communities. 

Along the way, I created DealBuddi, an AI sales coach to scale these frameworks and make them accessible to every SaaS founder and sales team.

Today, I help SaaS founders, sales leaders, and event communities simplify complexity, prove their value, and achieve growth. 

Whether it’s through smarter sales or stronger communities, my goal is simple: to ensure no business leaves their success to chance.
