Pepper is the partner for organizations seeking to develop and structure their Go To Market strategy to accelerate, maybe raise funds or to compensate for a loss of valuable skills due to someone leaving the company. Concretely, Pepper can help with:

- transition management of Sales and Marketing teams -> VP as a Service

- creating or updating / revamping a playbook

- assessing the sales process + marketing alignment to propose fixes or tools to implement

- building the approach to a new market (new geo or new segment/industry)

- hiring new people and ramping them up in an efficient way

- coaching leaders and managers of your organization

- ... Your question now should be "why should we take you as a consultant instead of hiring someone to do that for us?". And I thank you for asking ==> you don't but for several reasons:

- raising 100M€ is not so easy for organizations anymore and because cash is king you might want to make sure the ground is set up for success before you hire dozens of contributors (or their leaders)

- Pepper comes with a defined scope and period of time, it's easy to renew if needed or to stop if you're not happy with me (again, easier to control your cash flow)

- I don't have business developers looking for new missions for me and I don't want to accumulate countless missions and focus on quality, no website, only word of mouth, so it will be key for me to obtain your satisfaction and needless to say I have no interest in overselling myself

- Even if I am an apprentice Business Angel and always open to discuss Smart Money investments, I bring a neutral set of eyes / ears / brain to support your ambitions but with a step back that's always hard to take when it's about "your baby"

TrainMyTeam was born as a project to gather Sales Leaders (Head Of, VP, CRO / CSO) of the SaaS ecosystem so they could share tips. With 40 pioneer members, we can now say it is a community that allows each of its member to mentor and be mentored on specific topics, maybe even convert it into trainings for their entire teams. What comes next you say? A powerful tool so every member can compare its business KPIs to its pairs in the industry, companies of the same size and with the same challenges, in order to better evaluate performance. If you are interested, drop me a message and join us!

- - - - TL;DR - - - - Olive Capital does not provide any financial advice. You should carefully consider your own financial situation and have a diversification approach towards risk. While return profiles seem attractive, members are made aware that Venture is a very difficult asset class where the entire capital invested is at risk. Investments are made on a long-term horizon with little or no liquidity available before a potential exit.
