About this session
For pre-seed through Series A B2B software and AI founders who want help with one product or customer decision.
Bring a specific question: Which customer segment should I focus on? What belongs in the MVP? Why aren't prospects buying? How should I test this price?
We'll spend 30 minutes looking at what you know, the options and what to try next. You'll leave with a clearer decision or a specific test to run.
This is a paid working session. It covers one issue and live feedback; a full deck review or written strategy review has its own package.
Your mentor
Hi, I'm Chris. I help B2B software and AI founders figure out what customers will pay for, what to build first, and how to win those customers.
I work with founders from pre-seed through Series A. Early on, we might work through customer conversations, choose a first market or decide what belongs in your MVP. Once you have customers, we can look at pricing, why deals aren't moving and how to make sales more repeatable.
I've spent 20 years in Silicon Valley's tech and AI scene. I've founded a software company, created SAP's Connected Goods platform, and led product teams at Cognizant and Elevance Health. I've also mentored founders through Stanford GSB's Ignite program, Alchemist and German Accelerator. Enterprise software and healthcare are areas I know well.
You can bring the unfinished version: an idea you're questioning, a sales pitch that isn't landing or a decision you keep going back and forth on. I'll ask questions, give you honest feedback and help you decide what to try next. First-time and nontechnical founders are welcome.
Monthly mentoring gives us four 45-minute conversations to work through your product and customer decisions, review what you've tried and agree on next steps. Between calls, you can message me with follow-up questions and work in progress. I reply within 24 hours on workdays. Full deck reviews, written strategy reviews and specialist implementation projects are scoped separately.
If you need help with one decision, a paid one-off session may be enough. If you're considering ongoing mentoring, send me a few lines about what you're building, your stage and the decision you need help with. We can start with a message, then arrange a short introduction if there's a fit.
