Tempo Consulting

Market analysis and GTM strategy for middle market and enterprise B2B firms.

Principal

B2B Power Hour

A feet-first experience into the world of B2B sales. We recorded 200 episodes featuring sales experts, LinkedIn royalty, and a bunch of laughs. One listener called it "the most useful podcast I've ever listened to." We built the show in public. It included a famed live cold calling series that earned 1MM+ watch minutes per episode, deep dive interviews where we got experts to share the secret sauce for free, and a series of episodes on social selling that built and shaped the conversation out here on LinkedIn. A one-of-a-kind experience.

Hi 👋🏻  I'm an economic researcher who left government for the private sector. I work on bridging data, insight, and strategy for B2B companies (market analysis and GTM planning). 

If you're interested in go-to-market strategy, you should consider subscribing to my weekly column on Substack analyzing how companies are adapting their GTM strategy. It's written for revenue & operations leaders at middle market or larger companies. It's free to get the weekly email 😁 

I love whisky - mostly Scotch - and cannot get enough tacos in my life. I judge a taquería by its al pastor taco. My favorite bar is a local dive that serves a "house wine" that's actually just whisky and coke. My favorite cocktail is a Rob Roy. 

I care most about surrounding myself with good people, and without sounding too serious about it, I try to treat people really well. Life's too short to be rude, selfish, and uncaring.

📧 DM me here if you've got questions.

PS - got a New Zealand recommendation? I'm headed there in the spring

Fluint

Stop losing deals when you're not in the room.

Start selling with committed buying champions to land more enterprise deals.

Our platform is built on the fact B2B deals are won and lost during a buyer's internal meetings — not sales meetings. When champions pitch your product, and teams debate your value, without you.

But most deal champions wing their message, or create their own pitch materials, because they won’t send templated product decks filled with marketing speak to their boss.

To help, Fluint converts your buyer's own words from sales calls into a personalized business case your prospects are proud to champion with you.

The backstory, if you're curious: 

B2B sales has been my whole career, and I love it. 

Sometimes, I’m founding the products I sell. Other times, building teams to sell. 

I used to think sales reps close deals. Over time, I realized they don’t — buyers do.

That’s because buying decisions are made during the internal conversations happening about you, without you.

It's why I founded Fluint. To help B2B sales teams sell with their buyers, not to them. To stop losing deals when they're not in the room. 

I send out long-form content and templates/frameworks on this approach, Buyer Enablement, 2X per month. Signup for that email here:
