Henry C.
Tech founder | CMO/COO | Growth Hack, GTM
Ex-founder turned fractional CMO for AI, SaaS, and Web3 — I help founders turn complex products into clear market traction. I’m a founder-operator who’s taken companies from zero → MVP → PMF → hyper-growth → exit/TGE. Today, I work with startups as a fractional CMO or COO to build GTM systems that drive revenue, fundraising, and enterprise partnerships. Previously, I co-founded Sapien AI (COO) where we reached MVP and PMF within a year, then listed publicly with a $400M FDV peak. Before that, I served as: COO/CPO at Haller AI (acquired) CMO at Matador Technologies (IPO) CMO at REsimpli, where I revitalized growth after a long stagnation With 10+ years in growth and product leadership, I specialize in: Go-to-Market Architecture — the narrative, funnel, and systems that attract investors, customers, and partners Positioning & Messaging — turning complex technical products into simple, compelling value Launch Systems — plug-and-play GTM frameworks for product or feature launches Ways to Work Together Fractional CMO (3–6 month engagement) For startups raising Seed to Series B who need senior-level growth strategy without a full-time exec. GTM + Launch Blueprint (2–3 week sprint) Define positioning, ICP, funnel, distribution plan, and a 90-day content + growth roadmap.
