A SMARTER WAY TO BUILD
The team and leadership you need. Without all the fixed costs.
THE CHALLENGE
Hiring skilled leaders and building sales teams is necessary, but too expensive.
A VP of Sales costs $200K+. You’re managing the supply chain yourself. DTC isn’t profitable. And you need a sales team to work the market. For a brand under $5M, the math on building a competent team doesn't work and burns your cash. But you still need the leadership, expertise, and sales team to grow.
THE SOLUTION
A collective that joins you at the leadership level, and extends you to the market.
Sales leadership, commercial strategy, supply chain, trade marketing, and e-commerce. Shared sales resources selling and activating. DTC that works. All provided by operators active in their domain. One relationship connects you to all of it, at a fraction of the cost of hiring a full-time team.
