Build a business that grows beyond you.
You built the company. You won the first customers. You became the advisor your clients depend on. But at $1–3M, growth stalls when every key relationship, opportunity, and revenue decision still runs through you. I'm Ken Hogan. I partner with founders as their executive revenue partner — building the strategy, systems, and leadership your business needs to scale beyond you.
Executive Revenue Partnership for Founder-Led B2B Service Companies
When Growth Still Runs Through the Founder
At $1M–$3M in revenue, many founder-led companies have proven they can win customers. The challenge is that the founder is still the system.
They own the key relationships. They drive the largest opportunities. They make the critical revenue decisions. They step in when deals stall, customers need attention, or the business needs direction.
That works until it doesn't.
Growth requires more than adding salespeople. It requires experienced revenue leadership to establish the strategy, create operating discipline, align sales and customer success, improve accountability, and build a customer lifecycle that can scale beyond the founder.
That's where Consult MWM comes in.
I provide executive revenue leadership to help founders build the systems, processes, and organizational structure needed to win, retain, and grow customers without remaining at the center of every relationship.
What Changes When Revenue Has Executive Leadership
You don't need another consultant handing you recommendations. And you don't need a hired gun carrying a quota with no authority to change anything. You need an executive partner with the mandate to build your revenue organization — and the accountability to deliver results. That's the engagement: real authority, real ownership, shared risk
Revenue Leadership That Drives Lasting Change
Growth does not come from a better sales process alone. It comes from having the leadership, structure, and accountability required to create a scalable revenue engine.
Consult MWM provides the executive leadership needed to:
- Define a clear revenue strategy aligned to your market, ideal customers, and growth objectives.
- Build the operating discipline across sales and customer success needed for consistent execution.
- Create visibility into pipeline, forecasting, customer health, retention, and expansion opportunities.
- Align sales, delivery, and customer success around a consistent customer journey from first conversation through long-term partnership.
- Develop the leadership structure and accountability required to reduce founder dependency over time.
The objective is not to remove the founder from growth. It is to build an organization where growth, customer relationships, and execution no longer depend on the founder alone.
Built for Growing Founder-Led B2B Service Companies
Consult MWM works with founders who have built successful businesses through expertise, relationships, and personal involvement. As the company grows, the challenge shifts from creating opportunities to building the leadership, systems, and accountability required to scale.
You may be experiencing:
- Founder-dependent growth: Key opportunities, customer relationships, and revenue decisions still require your direct involvement.
- An inconsistent revenue process: Sales, customer management, and growth activities lack the structure needed for predictable execution.
- Limited visibility into the business: Pipeline, customer health, retention, and expansion opportunities are difficult to forecast with confidence.
- Growing complexity without leadership structure: The business has more customers, more opportunities, and more moving parts, but ownership remains concentrated with the founder.
- A founder ready to lead differently: Your time is increasingly valuable, but the business still depends on your involvement to move forward.
The goal is simple: build a revenue and customer success engine that protects relationships, creates predictable growth, and allows the founder to lead the business instead of managing every part of it.
Executive Leadership Without the Full-Time Commitment
Consult MWM operates as your fractional revenue executive, not an outside advisor.
I work directly with you and your team to establish the strategy, create operating discipline, improve execution, and build the revenue and customer success infrastructure required for sustainable growth.
You gain experienced executive leadership without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire.
The difference is accountability. I don't simply provide recommendations. I help build the systems, lead the execution, and create the ownership required to make lasting change.

Founder Transition
Moving Revenue Decisions and Relationships Off Your Plate Without Losing Momentum
This partnership isn't the right fit if you're looking for sales execution without giving someone the authority to lead strategy or manage the team. It's also not a fit if you're simply looking for the lowest-cost way to test sales leadership, expecting a turnaround in 90 days without changing how the business operates, or aren't prepared to gradually transition key client relationships.
I'd rather have that conversation upfront than discover two months into the engagement that we're not aligned.
