Most pipeline problems aren't pipeline problems. They're system problems. I've built and rebuilt demand gen engines across 10+ B2B SaaS companies - from Series A startups with nothing to growth-stage teams moving fast. The pattern is almost always the same. Tactics get optimized. More ads get run. More tools get added. But no one fixes the foundation. At Bureau (my most recent role), I came in to a declining demand engine and rebuilt it from the ground up across US, EU, and APAC: → $23M+ pipeline influenced in 12 months → Marketing contribution: <20% → 45% of total pipeline → MQL → SQL conversion up 40%+ → Enterprise sales cycle cut by 30% → 2–3x ROI across paid and outbound, outperforming SaaS benchmarks → Win rate: 28% across $20K–$2.5M ACV deals The framework I use is called The Demand Stack - five layers that have to be right before you touch spend: ICP, message, channel, funnel, attribution. Most teams skip to layer 3. That's where the money goes to die. Currently Head of Demand Gen at Vieu, building the system that scales. Outside of Vieu, I work with B2B SaaS founders and revenue leaders - as a fractional advisor, or consultant - when they're done guessing and ready to build something that actually compounds. If your pipeline isn't compounding, I'd like to hear why. 📅 Book an appointment in the featured section.
