Fractional Channel Leadership

Most founder-led B2B companies between $2M and $20M ARR do not need a full-time channel executive. They need the judgment, cadence, and follow-through of one.

I operate as your embedded channel leader: owning partner relationships, running the pipeline rhythm, and reporting on coverage and attribution the same way a direct sales org is managed.

The friction point

Partner programs stall because nobody owns them between quarterly check-ins. Enthusiasm at signature turns into silence by month three, and the founder becomes the default channel manager by accident.

Without a consistent operating rhythm, partner-sourced pipeline stays anecdotal — impossible to forecast, impossible to defend in a board meeting.

Concrete deliverables

What you receive, stated plainly. Scope is confirmed on the discovery call once I understand your roster and current motion.
