GM North America & CMO

A focus around Big data. I served as a representation of big data and how it can be leveraged across business units.

Director RevOps and Insights

Passionate about bringing humanity to business. 

High growth leader, Built teams from scratch from 0-120, 3X CMO with a background in RevOps, Demand Gen, and RevOps. 2 Successful exits. I’m a bit of a data freak but I am super creative and have come up with some insanely fun and engaging campaigns. Enterprise leadership roles at Cisco, Verizon, and AGCO, instrumental in driving massive growth. Strengths are driving a growth engine that can scale while building a solid team that can operate and have fun. $0-$150M and Seed - Series D is what I have done several times now.

The personal side of me: I am a father of 4 with an amazing wife, this is what drives me. I am a sports enthusiast & Utah Jazz fan #takenote. 

I believe the biggest gap in today's world is our lack of being human even when there are differences. Be kind in all that you do, it always pays off.

No Decks. No Fluff. We Rebuild Revenue Engines for B2B Teams Stuck Under $20M!  Building systems that convert and close. We use GTBM, Go To Bigger Market strategies and implement them.

I’m Judd. And I help small and mid-sized businesses unlock growth they didn’t think was possible—without burning out, selling out, or settling.

Your business isn’t just a business. It’s your vision. Your risk. Your legacy. And if you’re like most founders, you’re carrying more weight than anyone knows.

My journey started at 14, running a barber shop on my front porch. 
Since then, I’ve scaled companies across health, wellness, and tech—serving Navy SEAL commanders, pro athletes, and Fortune 100 execs.

I co-founded GTM Partners, the first Go-To-Market analyst firm. 
Now I lead RevSymphony, where we help business builders like you:

Most companies don’t have a lead problem—they have a system problem.

Leads trickle in. Funnels leak. Sales and marketing drift apart. Founders hustle to hold it all together. Sound familiar?

That’s where I come in.

I help B2B founders, C-suite teams, and growth-stage companies go from scattered tactics to synchronized strategy—aligning brand, marketing, and sales to drive repeatable revenue.

✔️ Revenue growth strategy built for traction
✔️ Full-funnel marketing execution—outsourced or fractional
✔️ Systems, not guesswork: from positioning to pipeline
✔️ Clear messaging, clean ops, real results


🧠 A few of our real results: 
Delivered systems that drove 3x revenue growth from $1-3 M in under a year. 
Built scalable systems that unlocked 3x pipeline for a SaaS startup in 90 days.
Helped a $20M services company grow 32% in under 12 months. 
Advised a Direct To Consumer wellness brand through an eight figure exit. 


The revolution isn’t coming—it’s already here. 
And if you’re a founder ready to stop guessing and start scaling, let’s talk.

👉 DM me or hit Connect with a note that says “Let’s talk growth.” 
You’ll walk away with at least one growth lever you can pull today.

Judd Borakove

Winning teaches almost nothing. Losing teaches everything.

Niki Lauda understood that better than almost anyone alive.
A world champion.
A survivor of a near-fatal crash.
A man who came back to compete when everyone thought he was done.

And in one of the most memorable award moments in sports, he stood onstage surrounded by champions and said something almost nobody expects from a legend.

He accepted his award in celebration of the losers.
Because he learned more in losing than he ever did in winning.

There is something powerful about that truth.

Pressure teaches faster than comfort.
Defeat sharpens what victory hides.
The moments that break us open often become the moments that rebuild us stronger.

We spend so much of life chasing the win
that we forget where the real growth happens.

In the setback.
In the silence.
In the moment everything tilts and we are forced to see ourselves clearly.

The leaders who grow the fastest are not the ones who avoid failure.
They are the ones who study it.
They are the ones who let the hard moments shape their judgment, their character, and their standards.

We rise because of what did not go our way.

What has losing taught us?

No decks. No fluff. We rebuild revenue engines for B2B teams stuck under $20M. Operator. Builder. Co-founder of QuantumSite.

He said one word, and the whole team fell apart.

Not because they didn’t agree.
Because they each thought it meant something different.

In this ad, a leader says what we need is change.
Seconds later, chaos.
Everyone interprets it perfectly, and completely wrong.

It’s funny to watch.
But it’s exactly how most organizations operate.

We throw around words like growth, innovation, and transformation as if they’re strategy.
But if ten people hear them ten different ways, they’re not direction.
They’re noise.

People don’t resist change.
They resist confusion.

The best leaders don’t just communicate.
They calibrate.

How often does your team confuse movement for progress?

Some moments just remind you what joy feels like.

You do not expect it.
You are not looking for it.
And then something small hits you right in the chest.

A spark.
A smile.
A feeling you forgot you still had.

Life moves fast.
Most days blur together.
But every once in a while, something simple snaps you awake and makes everything feel lighter for a moment.

We all need more of that.

When is the last time something this simple made you smile?

The most impressive pitch I have seen this year came from a dog.

There is something hilarious and oddly relatable about watching a dog present his entire value proposition better than most brands do.

No jargon.
No fluff.
No twenty slide deck.

Just a simple message that lands:
Here is what I do.
Here is why it matters.
Here is why I belong with you.

And honestly, a lot of teams forget how powerful that is.

We try to impress instead of being clear.
We try to sound important instead of showing impact.
We try to convince when all we really need to do is communicate.

People remember what you show them far longer than what you tell them.

Harvey doesn’t posture.
Harvey demonstrates.
And that is why it works.

Sometimes the clearest value comes from the most unexpected places.

What would Harvey put on your highlight reel?
