We work alongside you at every stage of your revenue journey, bringing the commercial experience and board-level perspective you need for what comes next.
A Board Advisor is not a consultant who comes in, writes a report, and leaves. A BlazingRed Board Advisor sits alongside you at the most consequential commercial moments in your company's life, bringing pattern recognition from decades of enterprise sales leadership, fractional CRO engagements, and board-level advisory across AI and technology startups.
We work with founders at every stage from pre-seed through to Series A and beyond. The nature of the advisory relationship changes as your company evolves, but the core commitment remains the same: to be the commercial partner you can call before the investor meeting, before the enterprise deal, and before the hiring decision that will shape the next two years.
The commercial challenge a founder faces at pre-seed is fundamentally different from the one they face at Series A. Our advisory engagement evolves with you. The intensity, the focus, and the nature of the support all shift as your company moves through each stage of the journey.
Validating the commercial thesis, finding the first paying customers, and proving that the problem you solve is a problem people will pay to have solved. This is founder-led selling with advisory support on positioning, pricing, and who to target first.
Transitioning from founder-led selling to a repeatable commercial motion. Defining the sales process, making the first commercial hire, and building the pipeline infrastructure that will support the next funding round.
Taking what works and building the team, process, and structure to scale it. Enterprise GTM motion, channel development, partner strategy, and the commercial leadership that turns early traction into predictable revenue growth.
Building the commercial story for investors and acquirers, optimising the revenue engine for scale, and positioning the company for the exit conversation with the right metrics, the right narrative, and the right relationships.
We believe the best advisors should be accessible to founders at every stage of the journey, not just the ones who have already raised. Our pricing reflects the commercial reality of building a startup, with flexible structures designed for where you actually are right now.
Standard daily rate: £1,000 per day, no minimum retainer. Engage us on a day-rate basis for specific projects, workshops, investor preparation, or one-off commercial reviews.
Every engagement starts with a one-hour free consultation. No pitch, no pressure. Just an honest conversation about where you are and whether we are the right fit.
