Josh Norris

Josh Norris is a strategic leader in capital-efficient GTM design and post-raise execution for high-growth SaaS companies. He partners with founders and CFOs to ensure new capital converts into predictable, investor-grade revenue systems rather than uncontrolled burn.

He has advised 60+ Series A-D startups, helping teams eliminate burn drift, professionalize reporting, and build GTM infrastructure that supports follow-on funding. His work has contributed to multiple clients reaching seven-figure ARR within their first year and advancing to subsequent rounds.

Josh previously led GTM, revops, partnerships, and business development at Hyperbound, scaling from zero to $5M ARR in under two years, and at Lavender during the 2022 downturn. He also managed a 36-engineer organization at a publicly traded SaaS company, giving him a rare systems-level perspective on how revenue, product, and capital deployment align.

The moment the wire hits the bank is the most dangerous point in a startup's lifecycle. Josh operates as the architecture partner between board expectations and execution, ensuring every dollar deployed compounds.

Took a break from LinkedIn over the holidays to spend time with family. Today, I flew to Tokyo to spend 11 days with Eli Al-Shamari, Patrick Dajos 🐉, and 12 other SF-based founders. 

We’re here for fun, community, and quality time with likeminded builders.

It’s also my first time in Japan and the first real vacation I’ve given myself in years. I’m long overdue for a creative recharge.

I’ll share stories and pics!

My latest toxic opinion is that AI started using the em dash so much because the em dash is a uniquely superior punctuation mark—the best at conveying complex thoughts-within-thoughts—and the only reason the em dash has a stigma now is because most of you aren’t good enough writers to have recognized its value and used it before AI did. So now you see it as new, superfluous, and annoying—just another symbol of AI frivolousness—instead of the useful literary tool that it is. 

Thank you for coming to my Ted talk. Please enjoy this poem from a clothing tag from when I was shopping earlier in Shibuya. 

Words are light.

Ode to penguins.

Chief Evangelist, Community Strategist, Co-Founder of Wednesday Women, Startup Advisor, Ex-Stay-At-Home Mom

I'm the Co-Founder of Wednesday Women and the Founder of Chief Evangelist Consulting: two ventures grounded in a core belief: community isn’t a tactic, it’s a force.

Wednesday Women began as a ripple in 2023 as a small, intentional effort to elevate executive women. We amplify women’s voices on LinkedIn, on stages, on podcasts, not as polished personas, but as their real, remarkable selves (the woman behind the title). Our public platform is for everyone, and we’ve built a private membership for executive women who want to go deeper with that mission and create connections both help unlock challenges but also are their biggest cheerleaders. 

Through Chief Evangelist Consulting, I help companies design community strategies that create lasting engagement. With 20+ years in customer-facing leadership roles, I approach community as a strategic lever, rooted in trust, value, and connection.

At the heart of everything I do is a belief in the power of evangelism, authenticity, and shared momentum.

And yes — I run on coffee, dark chocolate, trying (and failing) to keep me very vocal dog in check and talking loudly about diversity in tech.
