What We Do
We Help You Accelerate Company Growth with Deep Go-To-Market Expertise
KICKSTART YOUR GROWTH ENGINE
Move Your Company Into Rapid Growth Mode
We have helped some of the most successful companies in Silicon Valley grow into tech titans and we can help your company too. We’ll leverage decades of experience in what works and doesn’t work in hi-tech go-to-market strategies to get your company firing on all cylinders, and we’ll work with your team to make it happen.
ACCELERATE SALES AND INCREASE WIN-RATES
Increase Revenue Production from Your Sales Team
We’ll put your sales team in the best possible position to succeed with differentiated positioning and messaging, demos that hit critical customer pain points, and improved pricing and packaging if needed. We’ll help your sales team improve close rates, increase deal sizes and drive add-on sales to current customers
CREATE MORE PIPELINE
Build a Bigger Base of Opportunities for Your Sales Team
Pipeline is the key to growth because more pipe means more at-bats for your sales team, and combined with improved conversion rates, results in sales acceleration. We'll increase your pipeline through comprehensive multi-channel demand generation, powerful digital marketing programs, an improved website and content strategy, efficient marketing ops and lead management, and insightful metrics and analytics.
PUT YOUR COMPANY ON THE MAP
Increase Awareness of Your Company and Your Brand
Customers buy products from companies they know and brands they trust. We’ll help you get on the map, stake out a market segment you can own, and make some noise with better company branding, corporate positioning, and loud and proud company communications and social media programs.

Critical Elements Rocket Scale Delivers to Accelerate Revenue Growth
MESSAGING AND POSITIONING
Who You Are, and How You Can Uniquely Solve a Big Problem
You’ll need strong messaging and positioning if you want to accelerate growth. We develop compelling messaging, differentiated positioning, and killer value propositions that truly resonate with your target market, clearly differentiate you from the competition to speed the buyer’s journey and help to close deals faster. We’ll analyze your customer’s needs, the competition and market trends to develop cutting-edge positioning that will set you apart from the rest. Then we’ll infuse this powerful messaging everywhere including sales pitches, website, marketing campaigns, and social media for consistency and maximum impact.
DEMAND GENERATION
Building a Broad Base of Opportunities for Sales to Work
If you want to grow faster, you’ll need a bigger pipeline to fuel that growth. We help build a strong pipeline of opportunities by creating a comprehensive demand generation program that identifies target markets and ideal personas and drives inbound leads through a multi-channel approach including digital, social, website, content, and programs to nurture opportunities through the buyer's journey. We develop or refine existing marketing tech stack, marketing ops, and lead management processes to efficiently move opportunities to SDRs and sales, track progress, and optimize through metrics and analytics.
SALES PRODUCTIVITY AND EFFECTIVENESS
Make the Most of the Opportunity You've Created
It will be difficult to grow fast if your sales team is not firing on all cylinders. You’ll need to at least maintain and ideally increase sales rep productivity as you scale up. To do that, you’ll need an integrated plan that includes hiring, training, team structure, management and compensation, compelling sales pitch and demo, strong message delivery, selling through roadblocks, understanding competitive tactics, and more. With our decades of sales experience at high-growth tech companies, we do a deep dive and get hands-on with your team and help to identify what’s working and what’s holding them back, and put plans and programs in place to give the sales team the boost they need. And help you build the infrastructure to scale that solution to larger sales teams as you grow.
PRODUCT MARKETING
A Critical Link in the Go-To-Market Chain
Product marketing is a central piece of your GTM strategy, connecting product capabilities with customer needs, amplifying that through all marketing channels, quarterbacking campaigns and launches and driving product-led-growth initiatives. And it’s also the single most difficult function to find and retain in tech due to a woefully short supply of skilled product marketers. We augment your current product marketing capabilities and mentor current staff if needed with experienced product marketers who cut their teeth at the most successful tech companies. Better product marketing will increase the effectiveness of all your sales and marketing programs, and help to drive growth.
NEW CATEGORY CREATION
Create the Next Big Thing
You want to be the Next Big Thing. Creating a new category is the grand slam of GTM growth levers, and is the magic bullet behind Salesforce, Uber, Airbnb, Amazon, Netflix, and many successful companies in all industries. It sets you apart with a clear field of opportunity to develop, rather than fighting over scraps with 10 other look-alike competitors. We’ll help you get there by leveraging our direct experience in creating numerous new product categories that drove the success of multiple tech companies to help you distance your company from the competition and become the Next Big Thing.
WEBSITE MAKEOVER AND CONTENT STRATEGY
Your Strongest Prospect Engagement Vehicle
Your website should be your single most important source of leads, your best distributor of content, the clearest representation of your brand, and a critical growth driver. Is your website falling short? No single aspect of your GTM arsenal has as much potential as your website. We’ll help you refine or rebuild your website so it engages your prospects and customers at every stage of the journey, delivering the right message and supporting content to move them along their journey. And present the company’s brand identity in a clear and compelling fashion to add an emotional component to a logical choice.
SALES AND MARKETING ADVISORY AND TEAM MENTORING
Hand-on Coaching and Guidance for your Team
Need some experience at the table? Someone who has been there and done that to guide your team to the promised land? Or looking to turbo-charge your GTM plans and refine them to make them better? We are here for you. We can help coach and develop your GTM team and evaluate your GTM plans offering insights on what we see that is working and not working, and how other successful tech companies have handled similar challenges and overcome them to succeed. Every company faces a myriad of challenges as they grow, but it does get easier when you’ve seen the movie a few times and know the path that leads to success. We can show you the way.
