The AI Startup Authority Engine

You Don't Need More Noise. You Need Trust.

You've built something real. Technical depth. A differentiated approach. Early traction.

But when buyers, partners, or investors look you up — they see sporadic posts, generic AI takes, and long gaps while you're heads-down shipping.

Meanwhile, less technical founders with louder voices are getting the meetings and attention that should be coming to you.

This isn't a content problem. It's a trust problem.

**Why I'm Focusing on AI Founders**

I've spent 13 years mapping buyer psychology into LinkedIn content systems for B2B professionals building authority without becoming full-time content creators.

What I kept seeing: the best operators struggle most with visibility. They're builders, not performers.

🎯 AI founders face this at scale. Noisy market. Hard-to-communicate differentiation. Risk-averse buyers. Most visibility advice is built for consumer brands, not technical founders selling into enterprise.

So I'm bringing 13 years of psychology-mapped systems to AI startups — where trust architecture matters most.

**What We Actually Do**

Most founders are told to "just post more." So they try feature updates, commentary, bursts of activity… then silence.

⚡ We don't start with content. We start with psychology.

Before writing anything, we map:

• Your buyer's fears, objections, and doubts
• What they've tried that failed
• Questions they ask before committing

Every piece addresses one mental checkpoint. Not to sell. To remove uncertainty.

**The Outcome Isn't Content. It's Trust.**

When buyers repeatedly see their thinking articulated clearly and consistently:

✓ Sales calls start with "I've been following your content"  
✓ Price resistance drops  
✓ Conversations move faster  
✓ Opportunities open without chasing  

🎯 What we really build is familiarity, credibility, and safety at scale — without stealing time from building.

**We help AI founders earn trust before the first call — so the right opportunities come to them.**

**About Me**

When I'm not working, you'll probably find me... working. But with cats nearby and terrible coffee.

🐱 I believe in psychology over hype, systems over hustle, and that LinkedIn would be better if everyone shared more cat memes.

"The key is not spending time, but investing it."
  -- Stephen Covey.

Having built, acquired, grown, sold and exited companies during my 20+ years in industry, I developed and honed a skillset in leadership and M&A.

Following my exit through sale to a Nordic Nasdaq listed permanent ownership group, I pursued my passion for innovation in the startup ecosystem.   As an Investment Director at a startup incubator, an Angel Investor and a Director of Henley Business Angels, I was privileged to work with many early-stage companies.     With the cycling of the macro market, from growth to value, I returned to my roots in serving buyouts of Small- and Medium-sized Businesses.

I co-founded BizCrunch to digitally transform SMB M&A, aiming to help triple the volume of deals completing in the UK annually, by reducing time, cost and complexity through digital transformation.

Enterprise Insights provides a portfolio of consulting and coaching services, designed to facilitate StartUp and ScaleUp companies in achieving and managing sustainable growth, and in preparing for exit.  

As a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, Chairman of a Charitable Foundation, and a trusted Mentor/Advisor, I've served high-performing leaders, enabling them to further the success of their teams and organisations.
