The Maven Growth Loop

This is a hands-on engagement. I work closely with you and your team to run the Maven Growth Loop process and build a clear, scalable GTM system.

Expect about 10 to 15 hours of steady collaboration each week focused on the strategy and structure your team needs to grow.

Start today

90% of fintechs fail due to poor product-market fit, and 42–90% of failures are linked to poor go-to-market strategies.

Most startups treat GTM as a linear process when in reality, sustainable growth comes from a reinforcing loop. The Maven Growth Loop creates a self-sustaining cycle where each pillar strengthens the next, building momentum and predictable revenue.

As a Fractional GTM leader, I plug into your team on a part-time basis for a defined stretch of time, usually 7 to 13 months.

I focus on bringing clarity and building the systems your team needs so they can sustain growth long after my engagement ends.

I want in!

After reviewing your current GTM strategy, process, and tools, I take your team through the Maven Growth Loop, a structured approach that brings clarity, focus, and consistency to how you go to market.

I don’t come in and force a playbook. I look at your team, your tools, and what already works, then build around your strengths.

From there, we:

How it works.

Build the processes and systems you need

Add new tools only when they actually help

Support your sales and marketing teams so everything stays aligned and moving together

Tighten your marketing, messaging, and sales materials

No image visible

STEP 01: WE AUDIT.

Most teams already have pieces that work, so we focus on understanding what to keep, what to fix, and what to strengthen instead of rebuilding everything from scratch.

Over the first two to four weeks, I review your GTM foundation and identify the areas that need attention so we can get your motion moving in the right direction.

You’ll walk away with a clear, customized plan that includes priorities, goals, KPIs, and timelines your team can actually execute.

Sales with a Sprinkle of Marketing.

STEP 02: THE MAVEN GROWTH LOOP

A 4-pillar circular system that turns fintech strategies into predictable revenue engines.

Define who you sell to and when they are ready.

Everything starts with knowing exactly who you serve. We refine your ICP, tighten your segments, and outline the triggers and behaviors that signal real readiness. This gives your team a cleaner path to a qualified pipeline and a clearer sense of where to spend their time.

  • ICP refinement with behavioral and buying triggers

  • Segmentation that matches how FIs evaluate solutions

  • A simple qualification and scoring framework your team can use immediately

Deliverables:
Updated ICP documentation, qualification framework

PILLAR 01

ICP & Segmentation

Convert clarity into predictable revenue.

We make your customers a core part of your growth engine by identifying key milestones, capturing their wins, and turning those outcomes into simple, repeatable proof your team can use across sales and marketing.

  • End-to-end sales process mapping

  • Sales methodology alignment

  • Pipeline metrics and forecasting models

  • Sales enablement tools and frameworks

Deliverables:
Sales process, metrics dashboard, enablement toolkit

PILLAR 02

Sales Process & Motion Optimization

Turn customers into your most powerful growth asset.

We make your customers a core part of your growth engine by identifying key milestones, capturing their wins, and turning those outcomes into simple, repeatable proof your team can use across sales and marketing.

  • Identify and measure customer milestones

  • Capture testimonials and case studies

  • Build reference customer programs

  • Develop success story content

Deliverables:
Formats and templates, reference program, success story library

PILLAR 03

Customer Success & Social Proof Development

Amplify success to drive new demand.

We take your wins and bring them into the market with intention. Your events, content, partnerships, and point of view work together to build credibility and attract the right buyers.

  • Event and speaking strategy

  • Social Selling strategy

  • Partnership opportunities

  • Thought leadership positioning

Deliverables:
Event strategy, positioning framework, partnership plan

PILLAR 04

Market Presence & Thought Leadership

The next step is making sure your systems can actually support the strategy. I look at how your team works today and identify simple ways to streamline, automate, and remove friction so you can operate with more consistency and less manual effort. The goal is to help your team move faster with cleaner inputs and clearer visibility.

What we do:

  • Review current lead generation efforts and strengthen what already works

  • Tighten outreach workflows across email, LinkedIn, events, and partner channels

  • Identify opportunities to automate repetitive tasks and simplify handoffs

  • Establish practical, easy-to-read metrics that show funnel health and momentum

Deliverable:
A streamlined demand generation and RevOps plan with an optimized outreach system and clear, actionable metrics your team can use every day.

STEP 03: AUTOMATION & REVOPS

STEP 04: NEXT PHASE PLANNING

Once the GTM engine is running smoothly, we review what your team needs next.

Some companies keep me in a fractional capacity for a bit longer. Others shift into a lighter advisory rhythm. And sometimes the right move is hiring a full-time GTM leader. We look at your goals, your team, and your runway, then pick the path that makes the most sense.

Whatever direction you choose, your team will have the tools, documentation, and clarity to keep the motion running with confidence.

Momentum:

  • Packages start at $3,000. Everything is tailored to your stage and goals.

  • Most start with a 5-week sprint focused on ICP, messaging, sales process, and demand gen. Some continue with ongoing support.

  • If I see major blockers early, I call them out. Together, we adjust quickly and don’t waste your time or budget.

  • Evaluate:

    1. Did the advisor have startup experience?

    2. Did the Advisor have financial services experience?

    3. How did their advice help propel you forward?

    4. Was the advisor open if he/she did not have expertise and willing to pull in other view points.

    5. How much time have you been trying to make the current process work?

    6. Are you willing to take constructive criticism and implement a new process?

  • Fintech founders, GTM leads, and RevOps teams, mostly pre-Series B and looking to build a repeatable sales motion or refine an exsting one.

  • Yes. We build outbound playbooks, write messaging, and coach teams on how to engage through email and LinkedIn.

  • Yes. I offer monthly support for execution, growth planning, or campaign optimization.

  • No. But I often use FedFis (data), HubSpot (CRM), and Zapier (automation). We’ll work with what you have and recommend only what helps. The pricing for services does not include costs associated with tech stack or data.

  • Yes, if an intro makes sense, I’m happy to make it. But introductions are not guaranteed or included as part of the service.

  • Yes, I can attend events on your behalf or augment your team when needed, but that’s scoped separately and agreed on a case-by-case basis. I also help you identify which events are worth your time and how to show up with a clear plan.
