for B2B teams

I walk in, audit where your team is burning hours and money, then build the AI systems that take that work off their plate — so your people focus on decisions, not data entry.

Manifesto

Most B2B teams are about to waste $200K hiring for roles AI should be doing.

A content marketer. A BDR. A data analyst. A customer support lead. A marketing ops person. Four tools, six subscriptions, eighteen hours a week on tasks that ship once and die.

None of that needs to exist the way it used to.

I walk in, audit where your team is actually burning time and money, and build the AI systems that take that work off their plate. Every system gets documented as a playbook your team owns — no black box, no vendor lock-in, no monthly retainer you can’t cancel.

What I do

Four things. That’s it.

01 / AUDIT
Audit your current stack
Find the three highest-leverage AI plays for your business this quarter. No theory. No “AI transformation roadmap.” Just the shortlist.
02 / BUILD
Build the systems
Marketing content at 7× current cadence. Lead scoring running 24/7. Support agents handling 60% of tier-1 tickets. Ops workflows turning three-hour weekly tasks into zero-click automations.
03 / HANDOVER
Train your team to run it
Every system comes with a handover playbook. No black box. No vendor lock-in. Your team owns it from day one.
04 / RETAIN
Stay on retainer for the hard calls
Fractional means available when the business needs a senior AI voice — strategy decisions, vendor negotiations, hiring calls, scaling questions. Present when it matters.

Fit

Who this is for.

Right fit
  • B2B companies under 200 people scaling past their current ops setup
  • Founders replacing expensive agencies with owned AI infrastructure
  • Teams that want the system transparent, not delivered as a magic box
  • Leadership that wants AI strategy backed by actual shipped systems, not consultants with decks
Not for
  • Anyone looking for “AI strategy” without building anything
  • Teams wanting a chatbot bolted onto their website
  • Companies that want to rent, not own, their AI infrastructure
  • Anyone expecting enterprise procurement cycles or 6-month pilots

The stack (boring on purpose)

Production-grade. Observable. Debuggable.

Nothing that breaks on Monday morning. Nothing you can’t point your own engineers at. Nothing that holds your data hostage.

How we start

A 30-minute call. No pitch.

Walk me through where your team is burning hours. If there’s a fit, I’ll sketch what I’d build and what it costs. If there isn’t, I’ll tell you and point you somewhere better.
