Founder @ Fotando Global 🌍 | I help business leaders build AI & software solutions| I assist startup founders in progressing from idea to MVP/MLP 🚀 & beyond | Advisor | LEANSTACK Certified Coach

Most early-stage B2B SaaS founders I talk to struggle with the same challenge - turning an idea into a scalable product without wasting time or money - I know this pain firsthand - having invested more then €30k in an MVP without validation, only to find there wasn’t enough traction.

They dive straight into building without validating their ideas, and before they know it, they’ve burned through budgets, launched features no one uses, or missed the market entirely.

Second-time founders face survival bias. They’ve seen success before, but they rely on outdated strategies that no longer work in today’s fast-moving SaaS and AI-driven landscape.

What’s the cost?

Missed Opportunities - Slow execution lets competitors move faster and steal market share.

Execution Gaps - Without technical expertise, building scalable systems becomes a bottleneck.

Overbuilding - Pouring resources into features too early - without validation - leads to costly pivots.

I’ve spent 15+ years in the tech industry - starting as a web developer, growing into product management, and eventually becoming a founder myself.

I know what it takes to validate ideas, build MVPs, scale and avoid costly mistakes because I’ve been there.

Here’s how I help founders launch smarter and scale faster:

Framework-Driven Execution - Proven methodologies like LEANSTACK to test and validate ideas before heavy investments.

Rapid Prototyping - Delivering MVPs in just 2-week cycles to demo and get feedback quickly (min. €10k budget)

Agile Cross-functional Development team - Building scalable Tech solution (from €50/h)

Strategic Partnerships - Acting as a fractional Tech CPO, bridging technical execution with business strategy so you don’t have to choose between speed and quality.

If you’re working on your first idea - or scaling your second - let’s talk.

If I could go back, I wouldn't change a thing.

Not even the toughest mistakes.

Started out as a developer. Shifted to product manager. Took the leap to founder.

Every move ia a complete mindset overhaul - each one packed with its own set of failures.

- As a developer: I believed great products sold themselves.
- As a product manager: I assumed every decision was driven by bulletproof data.
- As a founder: I learned nobody really has it all figured out.

Every wrong turn, every risk, every misstep… it shaped where I am today.

Biggest lesson is the hardest moments are define you. Easy paths teach you little (or nothing).

Looking back, sure, part of me wishes it had been easier. Maybe a shortcut, a clearer map, a faster route.

But true growth is that only comes from struggle.

No books, no mentors, no advices can match what you learn by making real decisions… facing real failures… and finding your own way forward.

So if you're stumbling, second-guessing, making mistakes - good.

That's where the real magic happens.

AI is rewriting the rules. Time-to-market is the edge.

Most founders miss it. (Recap from a convo this week.)

They outsource for months.
On paper it may looks fine. Team in place, tickets moving, code shipped...

Then something breaks in production. Silence.
Developers get shuffled between projects.
No bond with the founder. No urgency on deadlines.
9 to 4.

This is where startups WILL lose.

Fix it by shipping fast and cheap.
Not because v1 matters.
Because shipping exposes the truth:

1. Does the channel work?
2. Is the ICP accurate?
3. Does the offer convert?

If you don't move fast, AI won't wait.
Competitors won't wait.
The market won't wait.

Ship in weeks. Learn in days. Adjust in hours.

I use #Claude as a CEO every day.

This update is amazing.

1. Claude for Chrome → In your browser. Summaries. Form fills. Busywork handled.

Now in beta for all Max users. Add to Chrome.

2. Claude for Excel → Work in-sheet. Pivot tables, charts, file uploads, quick-open add-in.

3. Better file outputs → Higher-quality docs, decks, sheets, and React/HTML prototypes.

4. Long chats (finally) fixed. Claude auto-summarizes earlier messages so you rarely restart.

If you use the browser or spreadsheets and have not tried  #Claude yet - give it a try 👍

Most scale-ups treat innovation like VCs in the '90s.

Pick a "big idea." Pour all resources into it. Hope it works.

Modern VCs don't play that game.

They build portfolios.

Because predicting winners is almost impossible.

Even with perfect research, 67% of product bets fail.

Yet most CTOs still try:

"We're all-in on AI personalization for 6 months."

Six months later: "Market wasn't ready. Now, AI analytics."

Another 6 months. Another bet...

Meanwhile, their competitor?

Tested both ideas in 8 weeks.

Shipped the winner before you finished your research.

THE COSTS:

Sequential Innovation:
→ 12 months to test 2 ideas 
→ $500K fully-loaded costs 
→ 50% chance you start with the wrong bet 
→ Competitor: 6 months ahead

Parallel Innovation:
→ 8 weeks to test 3-4 ideas
→ $150K in validation costs
→ Market tells you what wins
→ You ship by month 3, not month 12

You can't research out of uncertainty.

The only way to reduce risk is to test faster and kill bad ideas sooner.

Companies using portfolio thinking find winners 3-4x faster than those perfecting one idea at a time.

Real story: A scale-up was set to gamble 6 months on a single AI integration.

We showed them another way.

They found a revenue stream in 7 weeks - without betting the company.

AI-native companies.

Not just a buzzword. A fundamental shift.

I keep asking myself:
What if Fotando Global ran with AI as its operating system - not a side project, but the core of how we work?

Here's why i think this matters:
AI now handles 80% of the routine, manual, and boring. What's left? The edge cases, the deep context, the expert calls.

But even that 20%? It doesn't need to be full-time anymore:
- Experts could move from employees to specialized contractors
- Serving 10–20 clients, not just one
- Higher hourly rates, but fewer jobs on payroll

btw - I start testing this shift.
Broke down a growth playbook to be turned it into daily actions, let AI drive the framework for a B2B startup. Dream.

Months of work can be done in days.

So what is a company, really?
Not just people in roles - a system that's easy, efficient, scalable.

It's a little scary ...  but It's a lot exciting.

Here's the real question:
What does it actually take to run a company where AI is at the core?

Would you make the leap? Are you doing it already?

Opened my calendar this morning.

Found 6 meeting invites from people I've never heard of.

Random webinars. 
Sales demos. 
"Quick sync" requests from complete strangers.

Completely insane.

Turns out, Google Calendar's default setting lets anyone with your email add events directly to your calendar?

Anyone.

Here's the 2-minute fix:

→ Open Google Calendar
→ Settings (gear icon) → "Event settings"
→ Find "Add invitations to my calendar"
→ Change from "From everyone" to "Only if the sender is known"

That's it. Now only people in your contacts or organization can book time with you.

Your calendar is your time. Protect it.

Has anyone else been hit with random calendar spam lately?

Your last startup’s success might be the reason your next one fails.

Second-time founders fall into the survival bias trap:

1. They trust past successes too much.
2. They reuse old playbooks without questioning them.
3. They ignore the failures they never saw.

In WWII, researchers studied bullet holes in returning planes, trying to reinforce those areas.

Until they realized… The real problem was the planes that never made it back.

Second-time founders do the same thing.

They base decisions on what worked last time - not what actually works today.

How to break out of survival bias:

1. Expand your data set.

Don’t just study success. Study failure.

What didn’t work for others is just as important as what did.

2. Slow down decision-making.

Your brain wants to connect the dots fast.

Challenge assumptions and gather different perspectives before making a call.

3. Get external input.

Bring in different skill sets - marketing, UX, technical, product.

AI can also help surface insights you might overlook.

The smartest founders structure their decisions.

They document their thought process, list out risks, and stay adaptable.

Because yesterday’s success doesn’t guarantee tomorrow’s results.

Just enrolled in Decision-Making with ChatGPT on Maven - excited to learn live with Cassie Kozyrkov in this cohort-based course.

Speed of learning is the new unfair advantage.

I learned that the hard way.

After helping clients avoid costly AI mistakes, I realized I was doing a version of the same thing - moving fast without stepping back.

So I did something uncomfortable: I enrolled in Stanford GSB's Digital Transformation and AI Playbook.

Not for another certificate.

For a better operating system for my company and for our clients.

Founders fall into this pattern. I did too:
- Execution gets loud.
- Assumptions go unchecked.
- Learning becomes confirmation.

My "two monkeys" showed up. The strong monkey runs fast. The smart monkey needs structured thinking time.

This program forces the pause button. Frameworks. Case work. Hard questions.

If you're honest: when was the last time you learned something that challenged your playbook instead of validating it?
