Growth Systems for SaaS & AI Startups | Automation, Lifecycle, GTM
Most SaaS funnels leak between sign-up and revenue, and the dashboard never shows where. I find the leak and build the system that closes it: automation, lifecycle email, and a community that keeps users active. What I build Marketing automation that runs without you. Lead capture → enrichment → AI scoring and routing → nurture, built in Claude or OpenAI, wired into HubSpot, Klaviyo or Brevo. Sales gets fewer, better leads and nobody re-keys data. Lifecycle email and CRM. Onboarding, activation, upsell and win-back flows, with the reporting that shows which ones move revenue and which ones are noise. Community-led growth. Discord, Telegram, Skool, Circle and Reddit set up to drive activation and retention rather than chatter: onboarding paths, member automations, a moderation playbook, and the Reddit and LinkedIn presence that feeds it. Growth strategy and GTM. Positioning, channel mix, funnel instrumentation (GA4, Mixpanel, Hotjar), and a weekly number you can act on. How an engagement works A 30-minute call. A written plan with targets inside 48 hours. Then I build it myself. You get one person who does the strategy and the hands-on work and reports in numbers, not activity. Best fit: founders and heads of growth at B2B SaaS, AI and fintech products between first customers and Series B, who need a system more than another hire. If that's you, send a note with where you think the funnel leaks. I'll reply with the first thing I'd fix and what it would take.
