• Generalist Operator (wears many hats!)

• We have a great idea, but we’re not sure how to turn it into a business.
• I need help figuring out what to build first - and what to leave out.
• We’re moving fast, but we lack structure and repeatable processes.
• We need a solid go-to-market plan, not just hope and hustle.
• We’re not sure how to price our product or position it in the market.
• I’m wearing too many hats, and I can’t do it all well.
• We need to look investor-ready, but we don’t know what that really means.
• I don’t know if we’re fundraising too early or too late.
• We need to hire, but we don’t know what roles to bring in first.
• There’s momentum, but no clarity on how to scale sustainably.
