Success story
One of our most impactful successes at Founders Gro was helping a European SaaS company expand into the U.S. market. They had strong product-market fit at home but were struggling to gain traction stateside. We stepped in as fractional CEO, rebuilt their go-to-market strategy, repositioned their messaging for the U.S. buyer, and implemented a sales pipeline with better visibility and forecasting. On the finance side, we introduced robust reporting and restructured their pricing model.
