Testimonials

  • Dave provide the best, most solid feedback I’ve ever gotten since we open the doors or started to distribute.

    Greg Videtto, Little City Cider

  • I've been working with Dave for close to two years and can say that he is the reason I understand financial projections and have developed data driven strategies for marketing and sales. As a solo founder wearing many hats, Dave helps you focus on the priorities to make continued progress. His attention to detail, knowledge and sense of humor have helped me approach roadblocks in creative ways. He has a been-there-and-done-that solution for practically any random problem you might have (seriously, you can't stump him). I consider him my startup therapist, a position that should officially exist in this ecosystem.

    Akshata Nayak, Little Patakha

  • Dave's understanding of the market helped us realign our product development timelines to be in sync with the buy-sell cycle while simultaneously sourcing new sales representation in key markets.
