Overview
Leverage. I was fascinated by pulleys in school. Same effort. 10x the lift. When I started my first company, I had to learn sales. Fast. I stopped making cold calls after 2 weeks and partnered with a fashion VC firm with 15 brands all needing to reinvent eCommerce. And we did it. Then boom. Bloomingdale’s called! My first flywheel was spinning. Now I love leverage. And disruptive innovations. They go together. I learned it’s easier to 10x than to add 10%. Leverage and disruption go together. Innovation, a new business model, an emerging technology, the right partner ecosystem, a story the mark

Leverage. I was fascinated by pulleys in school. Same effort. 10x the lift. When I started my first company, I had to learn sales. Fast. I stopped making cold calls after 2 weeks and partnered with a fashion VC firm with 15 brands all needing to reinvent eCommerce. And we did it. Then boom. Bloomingdale’s called! My first flywheel was spinning. Now I love leverage. And disruptive innovations. They go together. I learned it’s easier to 10x than to add 10%. Leverage and disruption go together. Innovation, a new business model, an emerging technology, the right partner ecosystem, a story the market is seeking. All better and easier than incremental KPIs and more work. As a CEO, a founder, an investor, and a board director, I’ve built companies and created Revenue Asymmetry across eCommerce, retail technology, luxury brands, manufacturing, healthcare and more. The industries change. The method doesn’t. #ChiefGrowthOfficer #FractionalCGO #RevenueGrowth #GTM #Partnerships #BoardDirector #Ecommerce #RetailTech #B2BSaaS #DealMakeHers #OperatingPartner #InterimCEO #InterimCRO #PrivateEquity #VentureCapital
