Frequently Asked Questions
How do you typically work?
I work with early stage founders (idea stage, pre-seed and seed stage), especially those building SaaS, digital products or marketplaces. I run provide coaching, advisory and workshops via accelerator programmes. I also offer programmes directly to founders via IfWeRaise.
What exactly is seed-strapping?
Seed-strapping means building a capital-efficient business by combining lean startup methods with smart, minimal funding. It's the middle path between no outside capital and aggressive VC-led growth.
What makes your approach different?
I don’t just teach lean startup or help you raise - I bridge the gap between product validation and funding. You’ll learn how to build what customers actually want, while staying in control of your runway, equity, and timeline.
