Hey fellow Huzzlers,

Hope you had a great weekend!

Last week, I had the chance to speak with several early-stage AI entrepreneurs. And two big Pains kept coming up for them:

1. Getting first paying customers (fast)
2. Getting accepted into a top-tier accelerator (YC apps are closing soon!)

After reflecting on the conversations, I realised both challenges share one core need:

A solid Go-To-Market (GTM) strategy.

Now, a bit about me:

In my “day job,” I create GTM strategies for VC/PE-backed companies (>$20M ARR). I typically charge $10K+ per plan, tailored to each client’s market, customer data, and goals.

Over the last 3 years, I've done this for nearly 100 companies, seeing firsthand what truly drives revenue growth.

This got me thinking:

Could I leverage AI to make top-level GTM strategies available to early-stage founders for $100?

I spent the weekend fine-tuning an agent that creates robust, founder-ready GTM plans specifically for AI-native startups.

Now, I need your brutally honest feedback.

Here's what the current iteration of the report includes:

• 1. Executive Summary: Key GTM recommendations, previewed at a glance

• 2. Startup Summary: Pain you're solving, your stakeholders, and your core value prop

• 3. Go-To-Market Foundations
• - Strategic insights tailored to the market you are tackling, things to keep in mind (e.g, how to create a moat, how to make sure you are after a $1B idea, etc...)
• - Who your Ideal Customer should be and why
• - Ideas of the most effective features you should build in your MVP and Why
• - Recommendations of different packages and their price, and reasons why they would be effective
• - Step by step process on how to get your first customers. Including how to get to talk to your first 10-20 stakeholders to get feedback on your idea. It includes email templates, LinkedIn message templates, Outbound sequence templates, how to do research on the stakeholders, AND how to navigate the conversation with them (including examples of questions to ask to validate your idea, as well as how to ask for referrals to keep the conversation going)

• 4. Accelerator Application
• - Nuances to keep in mind when applying and/or for interviews
• - How to leverage this GTM plan to come across as an expert in your field and in growing startup revenue

• 5. Parting Words: A dose of encouragement (because this journey is f*cking hard!)

Right now, I’m offering this report in exchange for detailed feedback.

If you’re interested, please comment below with:

* What would make you pay $10K (let's imagine you have the budget) to a consultant/business coach/course?

* Your startup’s URL (it’s ok if you don’t have one, simply provide details about your startup idea)

* Any additional information you want the agent to know (you can be as detailed as you like

* Where I can send the PDF (email, LinkedIn profile, Reddit handle, or somewhere else is convenient)

Thanks for reading this far 🙏

I hope I can help you sharpen your GTM plan, get those precious first customers, and maybe even get you accepted at YC!

I am working on a "milestones roadmap" for tech founders to navigate their journey from 0 to 10M in ARR.

The roadmap is based on my ~15 years of experience as a founder, an operator, an angel investor, and as a consultant.

It will have ~7 or 8 major milestones and then smaller achievements in between that need to be covered (almost chronologically) to increase your chances to get to 10M in ARR.

A few examples of major milestones are:

* Nailing your ICP definition -> Based on market feedback

* Aligning your product (MVP) with your market (ICP) to head towards PMF

* Mastering the founder-led growth stage by honing your sales skills

Each of those milestones have different specific tasks that you need to accomplish in order to progress to the next.

What do you think of this?

Hi everyone, I am new to this community and I hope I will be able to be as helpful as possible.

I have vast experience starting up and scaling SaaS companies, from an founder and operator perspective as well as a consultant. I have helped companies like Dropbox, DeepL, Lambda Labs, SpaceX, and many more.

So, if I can help with any questions, problems, challenges, etc... you might be facing in your GTM strategies, do not hesitate to tag me in your post or reach out.

I am also in the very early stages of building a service (#startupidea), I'll share more about it later on.
