00 Founder coaching · Zero to N

Build the product the
market actually needs.

Most early-stage founders aren't short on ideas. They're short on time, a clear order of priorities, and a strategy that survives contact with reality. I help you fix that, week by week.

Book an intro call 30 minutes, no pitch. We work out if I can help.
01 The challenge

You already know the
problem. You're living it.

Three things slow every founder I coach. Read these and tell me one doesn't land.

01 / RESOURCE

Resource.

You're wearing every hat. Product, sales, hiring, support. The important work keeps losing to the urgent.

02 / PRIORITIES

Priorities.

Everything feels like it matters. Without a clear order, you do the most ready thing instead of the right thing.

This week's listas you'd run it
  • Polish the landing page Ready
  • Clear the support inbox Ready
  • Tidy the onboarding emails Ready
  • The killer feature Right

You polish the landing page because it's there, while the fuzzy, half worked-out killer feature keeps getting pushed.

03 / STRATEGY

Strategy.

You have a direction, but it's fuzzy. When the team asks "why this and not that," the answer isn't sharp enough to act on.

02 The goal

The job is simple to say
and hard to do.

Solve the right problems with quality solutions, before you run out of runway. That's the whole game. Everything I do with you serves it.

03 The solution

What we do together.

Three levers. All of them leave the power with you, not with me.

LEVER 01

Sharpen the strategy.

Get clear on the problem worth solving and the order to attack it in. Frameworks that change how the work gets done, not slideware.

LEVER 02

Build your product instincts.

You leave each session more capable, not more dependent. The goal is your judgement, not my retainer.

LEVER 03

A second brain on call.

A private channel between sessions for the decisions that can't wait a week.

04 The how

How it runs.

Weekly

1:1 coaching

Regular working sessions on your real problems, not theory.

As needed

Ideation workshops

When you need to open a decision up and explore it properly.

Always on

Direct channel

A line between sessions so you're never stuck waiting a week.

/ Flexible by design

It flexes around your load, not the other way round.

Pause anytime. Resume when you need me. No long lock-in, no dead retainer ticking while you're heads-down shipping.

Pause anytime
05 The deliverables

What you walk away with.

Substance, not just good chats. Things your team keeps using after the engagement ends.

01

A product strategy you can act on

Clear enough that the team can answer "why this, not that" without you in the room.

02

A prioritised roadmap

The right order to attack it in, so ready work stops beating important work.

03

Working frameworks, embedded

Jobs To Be Done and Opportunity Solution Trees, built into how your team thinks.

04

Sharper product skills

Capability that stays with you and your team long after we stop.

/ Opportunity Solution TreeOUTCOMEOpportunityOpportunitySolutionSolutionSolutionSolution

One outcome. The opportunities that ladder to it. The solutions worth testing. This is how priorities stop being a guess.

If one of these sections felt a little too accurate, that's the call to book.

07 The benefits

Why this works for founders.

Not an agency. Not a hire you can't yet afford. A different shape entirely.

Flexible.

No long lock-in. Pause when you're heads-down, resume when you need me.

vs. an agency retainer

You keep the capability.

I build your team's product muscle. You're not renting judgement, you're growing your own.

vs. doing it alone

It's personal.

One relationship, direct access, someone who knows your context. Not a rotating account team.

vs. a new hire

N Let's talk

Let's find out
if I can help.

One 30-minute call. Tell me where you're stuck. If I can help, I'll tell you how. If I can't, I'll tell you that too, and probably point you somewhere useful.
