Penbrothers

The founders at Penbrothers recently brought me onboard with a special mission: to build a world-class sales team. With our eyes set on a bold growth target, and the backing of Mynavi, one of Japan's HR leaders, momentum's on our side.

Though our roots are in Manila, we embrace the global stage with our remote-first approach. We have a super diverse and entrepreneurial team with ample room to grow. If you're open to considering a new avenue for career growth you should get in touch.

💀 Tough to get customers and investors? I know why | 200+ Startup mentor @500Startups | 2x Founder | Japan nutcase 🇯🇵

I speak to fearless founders every day.
They all struggle with the same 5 things:


ººº FUNDRAISING
Raising funds is really hard and the survival of the company often depends on it.

ººº SALES
Low email and call conversion rates make it incredibly difficult to reach any significant revenue goals.

ººº TEAM PRODUCTIVITY
Difficulty in managing and communicating with people spread across time zones and geographies.

ººº PRODUCT-MARKET FIT
Uncertainty about the market fit of the product, too many pivots and little results.

ººº FOCUS
Drowned in work, grappling with priorities and lack of focus, feeling overwhelm and stress.

As a founder you need to fix these.
For a chance at crossing the Valley of D3ath.

_____

When I mentor founders, I give them a hard time. 
I challenge them. Push them to their limit. 
It's a painful process and it’s not for everyone.
That's often the cost of resurrection.
