Our Conversation
We connected through the Pavilion Executive community — you were geeking out about AI in operations, Claude Code, and graphRAG, and I jumped in because that is literally what I build every day.
Our call was a great peer conversation. We bonded over Houston roots (you are born and raised, I grew up in Cypress and lived there 30 years before moving to Jersey for my daughter). You are moving back to Houston this year, which is exciting.
What we covered:
- PatchOps model: You white-label technical HubSpot implementation and custom development for large RevOps and HubSpot partner agencies. Most of your revenue comes from this channel.
- Your team's capacity crunch: Your leadership team told you to pause prospecting last week because expansion revenue from existing agency partners surged — 400+ extra hours in 30 days. You hired to cover it but recognized you cannot keep pausing pipeline development.
- The alignment: I proposed being your fractional GTM engineering overflow resource. You said you would keep me on the shortlist and factor me into your capacity planning. You asked for a one-pager of what I can handle.
- Mutual respect: You showed me your custom list-building web app (not a CSV — a full interface with validated emails and rep workflows). I showed you my own infrastructure — private VPN, self-hosted tools, GraphRAG-powered systems. We are both builders, not just consultants.
Your exact words: "I think we can help each other out" and "I will definitely work you into our calculations."
