Guiding early-stage SaaS founders to 7-figures | SaaS Coach & Advisor | Top 0.5% Global Podcast | 400+ SaaS Founder Interviews | Ex-Microsoft & Disney

There are two dangerous traps for SaaS founders today.🪤 Trap #1: The "Old School" Grind. Thinking you need to hire a massive team, burn VC money, or work 80-hour weeks to scale. 🪤 Trap #2: The "AI Hype" Illusion. Thinking ChatGPT will magically build a business for you while you sleep.I believe in a third way: Powered by AI. Guided by Humans.The fundamentals of business haven't changed. You still need product-market fit, a sales engine, and retention strategies. But the speed of execution has changed forever.I help bootstrapped founders use "Pragmatic AI" for leverage (to stay lean) while relying on time-tested strategies (to stay profitable).Where the insights come fromI host The SaaS Podcast (Top 0.5% globally), where I don’t just interview guests; I deconstruct their playbooks.After 450+ interviews with successful founders (and my background at Microsoft &amp; Disney), I’ve turned these patterns into actionable programs to help you cross the chasm from "building" to "scaling."How I can help youDepending on where you are in your journey, I have a specific roadmap for you:1.
