6-8 week timeline
A focused sprint to extract institutional truth from the noise of the market.
Built on the 'Disciplined Entrepreneurship' framework, a proven methodology developed at MIT.
VENTURE VALIDATION
A repeatable market is built on evidence, not network. In 6-8 weeks, replace assumptions with evidence you can take to your board.
01 — The Thesis
Hiring a Chief Financial Officer before validating your market evidence is the most expensive gamble a founder can make. Relationships scale horizontally; product-market fit scales vertically. When the founder-led magic fades, don't try to solve the volume problem with more noise.
Get the evidence first.
02 — The Engagement
A focused sprint to extract institutional truth from the noise of the market.
Built on the 'Disciplined Entrepreneurship' framework, a proven methodology developed at MIT.
Direct, unvarnished feedback from high-intent buyers outside your personal network.
Start solving for the exact friction points identified by the market.
A rigorous plan detailing where the market actually is, not where you hope it to be.
03 — The Deliverable
This isn't consulting and it isn't coaching. We provide a scalable, repeatable engine and roadmap to understand who your next 30 customer are and where to find them, a heatmap of buying intent and a tested go-to-market script, giving you the hard evidence required to answer to your VCs and protect your remaining runway from expensive, unvalidated growth bets.
It didn't tell us what we wanted to hear. It told us why our last five attempts failed. That saved us £2M and a year of runway, and finally gave me a real answer for our VCs.
Tell us where you are. We respond to every founder who reaches out.
